When Openreach’s Fibre Network Delivery underwent a restructure, they asked for our support in helping them cut through 100-year-old bureaucracy and shift to a more agile, empowered and purpose-driven way of working.
We started by uniting their leaders around a broad vision for what their culture needed to be, whilst up-skilling them to begin immediately role-modelling this to their teams, building belief in the change. We then brought together 1,500+ employees, contractors and union reps from both field and office to define everyday ways of working needed to create their new culture. Finally, we developed targeted behavioural experiments around key aspects of their desired culture, driving measurable increases in team productivity, empowerment, revenue and customer satisfaction.

The Strategic Difference
We upskilled leaders to take bold and visible strategic actions, paired with meaningful behaviour shifts that mirrored the desired culture at all levels.
