CustomerFirst
Building modern businesses that thrive in the context of disruption

We put people at the center

The forces of digitization have rippled across the global economy, shifting the balance of power from suppliers to people. Meeting people where they are — whether at home, at work, or on the go — and solving for their needs has become the new cornerstone of success. Disruptors are moving swiftly to win the battle for customer attention and are changing the rules of the game across industries with surprising velocity. We work with you to craft the right portfolio of bets focused on breakthrough customer value. And we work shoulder-to-shoulder with you and your teams to de-risk and accelerate your path to sustainable growth.

Disruption By Design

Framing the right portfolio of bets

  • Distill the impact to your business from the collision of mega-trends.
  • Identify underserved customer problems by applying deep behavioral insights.
  • Experiment with customers to validate bets with in-market learning.
  • Fortify the conviction of both leaders and teams to move in a new direction while still leveraging your existing crown jewels.

Activation With Discipline

De-risking and accelerating your path to sustainable value

  • Modern solutions that people pull into their lives, powered by data and modern architecture.
  • Integrated delivery powered by inter-disciplinary teams.
  • Systematic releases that follow a stage-gate investment model, and source partners and components with modern methods.
  • Flywheel momentum that builds from beachheads towards deep and sustained customer engagement.

Our approach
grounded in six principles

We blend rigor with creativity, pragmatism with high ambition to help you channel disruption in your favor. We are relentlessly focused on unlocking new customer value as the basis for shareholder value.

It's not about guessing what people might want. If you pay attention, they will show you what matters most — where their struggles are at work, at home, and on the go — and where they have the greatest energy for progress
