Scalling Up Smartly: Leveraging Lessons from Tech Giants
Leadership & Culture Transformation
Testimonial reel
We help overwhelmed CEOs and Co-Founders of medium-sized digital businesses create thriving cultures, with a core focus on the following 3 elements:
People
You’re relying on people to execute your strategy.
If the strategy is supported by the culture and they are aligned, people will absolutely bust a gut, create and innovate, have fun and deliver results.
Are you, and your people able to state exactly what the values of the business are, and what that means for how they should behave, without referring to a document or webpage?
Are they able to make decisions when you’re not around because they have a clear compass showing how you and the company should behave and make decisions?
Embedding values allows cultural fit. Our process discovers the actual values, not just aspirational ones, within your business and makes them actionable, empowering your teams to make their own decisions and freeing up your time.
Purpose
Data from E&Y shows without purpose, businesses’:
Grow 3 times slower
Have 30% fewer innovations
Have 40% higher staff turnover
Getting clear on your purpose or ‘just cause’ is problematic. Aligning the business with that is harder still. We understand that communicating a vision in a way that inspires others to be their best is no easy task, but it’s worth it.
Discovering and articulating the real purpose of your business is king – and the Thryvving Cultures Program will help you to do just that.
You’ll find out why you and your teams are willing to go beyond, and develop a purpose and culture where you are all pulling in the same direction.
Performance
It’s not your tech, it’s not your funding, It’s not even your “first in the world idea”, brand of offering that’s your differentiator – it’s collaboration that’s the number one competitive advantage – not just because it’s powerful, but because it’s as rare as hocking horse shit!
Our founder’s mentor, Jim Tamm, Author of Radical Collaboration writes: “When it comes to performance, collaboration is key”.
Creating an attention to results and a collaborative way of working throughout the organization can make all the difference to the performance of your team and in turn your business.
“The single biggest thing you can do to impact on collaboration is to reduce defensiveness.”
As part of our program, you’ll learn how to build ‘vulnerability trust’, where your teams are able to say, “I don’t know”, “I need help”, or “I’ve made a mistake” without any fear.
definition:
To flourish in collaboration, doing the hard and soft stuff while hitting your numbers - to have fun in achieving prosperity and growth.
There are two ways of leading - from Safety or from Purpose.
Both create results in the short-term, but only purpose is sustainable and inspires others to be their best. The more you lead from purpose, the more effective your leadership is. The more effective your leadership is, the more profit you make. This is backed by hard data.
As a former billion-dollar CFO, I can tell you its not fluffy sh*t, it is hard, and that's why we are here.

With so much experience as senior executives for large multinational
corporations, there really aren’t that many of us out there.
We’re also expert
facilitators and coaches that have all walked in your shoes.
We have each spent a year training to create and deliver experiential workshops, and delivered hundreds in multiple industries, online and in person across 6 continents.
This is not your standard “training” – designing these experiences to create psychological safety that allows teams to go where they never thought they could.
Coaching is the art of deep listening, becoming present to what’s happening in the room for an individual, to help them to figure out where they’re currently at, and what they want to change.
It is one of the most powerful tools in our armory.
Tell us about your organization’s priorities and the cultural or leadership challenges that you are currently facing.
