Strategic Advisory.

Innovate in a state of flow

Build the right thing, and build the thing right. This is the cornerstone of any design-driven strategy.

Both sides of the sentence have their own challenges, but defining the "right thing" comes with the added responsibility of outsized downstream impact. No pressure, right?

Before the team rolls up their sleeves and begins doing, our Strategic Advisory service helps you un-knot your tie and get serious about thinking.

Insights for innovation

Successful downstream delivery requires thoughtful upstream planning. And getting into the flow of strategic organizational change means seeking insights for innovation through direct collaboration with employees, customers, and partners.

To be effective, business and IT stakeholders must shift from traditional siloed approaches to a more human-centered, cross-disciplinary mindset. This is where we can make a difference.

Whitespace blends the latest management approaches and frameworks with the strategic design methods used by today's most innovative companies – such as service design, experience architecture, systems thinking, and futurecasting – to help our clients break down silos, align on shared outcomes, and smooth out the rough edges of change.

Strategic Advisory - Futurecasting
Futurecasting is a method we use to evaluate underlying industry dynamics, conduct predictive analysis, and develop strategies based on an insightful vision of the future.

Our work in
Strategic Advisory

Design-led organizations outperform their peers 2-to-1 (here's the proof), but building an innovation lab isn't enough to create a space where innovation can flourish. Only a design culture can do that.

We work either on a project basis or as FTEs embedded within Corporate Innovation programs, where our business and design strategists are collaborating with clients on strategic planning, new business models, service blueprints, cross-functional alignment, holistic operating models, go-to-market plans, Change Management initiatives, and more.
