The premise of UNSTUCK STORIES is the knowledge your organization needs to succeed rests with your people and the networks they are part of. Our integrated approach:

• Identifies the informal networks of knowledgeable employees and other stakeholders.
• Designs collaborative processes through which these people can quickly exchange ideas and share information on solutions you can act on immediately.
• Establishes meaningful metrics to measure the effects of inclusive collaboration and communication.

We identify people who are normally left out of the conversation and have something of value to offer, and we provide rapid results faster than traditional consulting.
