What we offer
Re-humanizing Impact
Do you ever feel like conventional approaches to impact are missing something? We do too. Let's recalibrate. And this time, let's include all humans at the heart of impact.
​
We lost the plot when we started treating impact a long-term, disembodied result. It's not only an ends, it's also a means. No matter the scale or type of impact you're after, your journey will be forged by moments of human impact.
Your people are ready for this. They need it, you need them. And rehumanizing our approach to impact might just be what the world needs from us all.
Conscious Human Impact is all about the context of the moment for the humans who share it

"Purpose is the difference you want to make.
Impact is the difference you actually make.
Legacy is the lasting difference you leave behind."

How you can use Human Impact Thinking and Design
Human Impact Thinking and Design is a powerful approach to strategy, innovation and collaboration. It is informed by many other disciplines and approaches including Human-Centered Design, Interpersonal Neurobiology, and Appreciative Inquiry.
​
The master design canvas of Human Impact Thinking and Design is the Human Impact Framework, a sense-making and action-taking tool that helps you tell the whole story of impact, including the half that usually gets left out.

Impact over Purpose
​
Your higher purpose has a soul. It is unique to you, comes from a "good" place, and is linked to your sense of meaning, direction and fulfillment.
​
You're likely to have several purposes or versions of purpose over your lifetime, if you're lucky enough to find them.
​
But having a purpose is not enough. If you have a purpose you need to have an impact.
Impact is the key that unlocks your purpose.
Having a purpose but not an impact leaves people feeling miserable and frustrated.
And not knowing your purpose leads to existential angst.
We think it's time to focus on impact (the difference you actually make) over purpose (the difference you want to make). Ideally we need both working together, but the only path to that is to through conscious impact.
​
You're having an impact all the time, but are you having the impact you want?
​
Conscious impact bridges purpose and legacy. It unlocks a greater sense of wellbeing, connection, meaning, and significance.
And if you're still searching for purpose, you might just find it in the impact you make.
