Flux Services
EXPERT ADVICE. LASTING IMPACT.
Our game-changing advisory services are at the heart of what we do. We thrive on a challenge: supporting businesses at the most critical junctures in their transformation journeys, uniting your teams and fast-tracking your transformation.
Jumpstart
GET SET UP FOR SUCCESS.
Avoid competing agendas and getting lost in the details. Kick off your transformation with our signature service. Jumpstart will get everyone united, fired up and focused on the North Star.
-
Many initiatives fail before they have started – why? Often because of a blurry beginning and lack of vision. Blending our rapid blueprint methodology with accelerated planning techniques, we will jumpstart your program and accelerate your business case development process.
Our small team of experts and our creative partner will collaborate with you develop your blueprint – a nifty, no-nonsense, visual masterpiece designed to give the business the crystal ball they need, alongside a master plan and playbook, to accelerate through the crucial first phase of your transformation program and set you up for long-term success. Jumpstart can be used at anytime in the program lifecycle to realign teams.
-
We will:
Co-design your ideal TMO and team, based on your business type, transformation type and where you are on the transformation journey.
Hire and hand select a team to integrate into your business and to perform core roles, or coach your inhouse team to adopt a new way of working
Set up a VR office and supporting AI that mirrors the physical office – promoting engagement, creative thinking and collaboration, leveraging your existing tool set (if desired).
Help run the Transformation HQ, either in a coaching capacity or supervisory capacity, or manage a transition to internal leadership
-
Whilst Jumpstart is typically packaged and offered for 4–12 weeks, we find clients often want to use our accelerated planning methodology and support throughout. We also offer ‘jumpstart at scale’ for end-to-end Enterprise planning proceses and the $100m+ Goliath group of Transformations programs.
Our expert team – comprising a transformation architect or director, consultant and creative partner – will dive in and work with your teams to get you moving and cut through to the future.
TURNAROUND
TRIED AND TESTED SOLUTIONS TO GET YOU BACK ON TRACK.
It happens … sometimes things go sideways. A program in distress can have big consequences for your business. We’ve been there before and know the methods to fast-track your recovery. Every minute counts.
-
We’ll bring out the big guns. Our top-tier experts and associates will draw on decades of experience to help drill down to the root-cause issues and map out a path forward.
Everything in our arsenal is at your disposal – from our Assure and Jumpstart planning methodologies to our innovative hybrid VR office solution and the skilled professionals in our Talent hub.
We’ve got the hard-won expertise and will coach and support you through the tough times to set you up for success.
-
Working alongside you, we’ll dig deep to:
Diagnose problems and identify the root causes
Rapidly Reconstruct your transformation program to safeguard its success
Mobilise your team around a recovery plan and boost confidence
Custom-build your Recovery Office
Perform a managed recovery to transition if needed and rebuild your teams
-
Our most senior program directors and architects will work with your executive team to unlock rapid change and establish a recovery office and interim talent to drive your recovery needs.
Once you’re on the path to recovery, we’ll transition back to you and check in regularly (usually quarterly) to ensure the long-term success of the program.
ASSURE
INCREASING CONFIDENCE IN OUTCOMES
In our experience, assurance is often a tick box exercise that adds limited value and that rarely uncovers or addresses the things that could really trip you up. Poor assurance can end up costing you more time and money, and give a false sense of confidence. Fine-tuning your business transformation the right way can reap big rewards: swifter change, greater clarity and boosted efficiency.
-
At Flux we are excited to offer a different approach to this service. We bring the right combination of domain expertise and transformation specialists to critically assess with your business and SMEs where you’re strong and where work is required. We work together with you and bring a coaching approach to our assurance work, rather than the traditional black hat. Working together we create jointly supported action plans, serving as your valued partner and coach.
-
Working alongside you, we’ll dig deep to:
Zero in on critical areas for improvement
Clarify your business goals and business case
Devise a positive action plan that moves the dial
Boost your team’s capability and understanding
-
Assure can be provided as a standalone deep-dive or as an ongoing coaching service with regular “pulse checks” (usually quarterly). A small team of Flux specialists (typically an architect or director, and a consultant) will be on hand for that time.
TRANSFORM
TOTAL SYSTEM REBOOT
Bring your Transformation system up to speed by adopting the latest ways of working, practices to achieve outcomes faster more cost effectively and reliably. With a powered-by Flux model you will quickly assess maturity, gaps and a best fit answer for your upgrade.
-
We work with your teams on the ground to do a maturity assessment using our proven approach against tools, process, delivery framework methodology and levels of adoption. We will in parallel perform a portfolio review to segment the types of change delivery to be supported, a view of what your framework pathways, and tooling needs might be including opportunities for simplification, decommissioning or efficiency.
-
Working alongside you, we’ll dig deep to:
Align on critical areas and levers for optimization
Ensure Executive alignment and understanding upfront to changes to the system
Ensure regretful work on new tooling or frameworks is avoided where the challenge is in adoption of existing tools
Boost your team’s capability and readiness to roll-out and adopt
-
Subject to your aspiration, we will co-create a leader led roll out and adoption plan for the Ecosystem reboot which can take 3 – 12 months subject to complexity, start point and speed of benefits release. Our senior advisory Partners will co-develop an Executive sponsored action plan to rapidly pivot key challenge areas often including Annual planning and prioritisation, decisioning and Executive governance
DELIVERY support
great people, serious delivery
When delivery needs to move — and keep moving — organisations need experienced leaders and teams embedded inside the work, not advising from the edges. This option provides ready-to-go transformation capability with the discipline to reduce decision debt, maintain momentum, and surface issues early. Talent and Teams are supported end-to-end with Flux methods and training but deployed directly to you as flexible capacity with a promise of quality and will operate with complete transparency supported but the Flux ecosystem through the hardest phases of delivery.
-
Our creative team has been supporting Transformations world-wide with storytelling, and campaigns – making the complex simple - for years. If 50% of Transformations fail to deliver on their original promises, then save the pain by boosting your Transformation with creative support, and enhance your chances of successful engagement and adoption. We also offer tailored delivery services for Transformations – including but not limited to coaching, retained advisory of our SMES, and Lab experiences. Please enquire to find out more.
