Prioritisation strategies for alignment and impact

We develop and facilitate prioritisation processes that build consensus among teams and drive impactful outcomes. Working alongside stakeholders, we ensure that initiatives align with community needs, available resources, and long-term goals. Our approach helps organisations make informed decisions that are both inclusive and strategic, fostering environments where every voice matters and resources are utilised effectively.

How we help

We collaborate with teams to make effective, data informed, prioritisation decisions. This isn't a complete list of the techniques that we adopt, but it highlights some of our core techniques for reaching consensus among the key actors.

  • Human centred prioritisation
    ensuring the needs of the communities that we work with are always given the highest priority
  • Identifying and mapping key stakeholders
    to ensure decisions are agreed collectively with the right people
  • Guided workshops for collaborative prioritisation
    with facilitation of consensus-building activities
  • Evidence-based decision making
    to avoid reliance on personal opinions of stakeholders
  • Integration of ethical considerations
    into prioritisation and everything that we do
  • Customised prioritisation frameworks tailored to organisational goals
    Such as the value/complexity matrix, or judging initiatives against desirability, feasibility and viability.
  • Scenario planning to anticipate future challenges
    and flexibility to adjust priorities based on emerging data and insights
  • Continual feedback loops
    to adapt prioritisation
