For senior leadership teams.

Execution has stalled.

It’s not a strategy problem.

The strategy is sound. The people are capable. But decisions are stalling, dates are slipping, and energy drains into rework.

The instinct is to add something: more process, a clearer RACI, an external review. In our experience, they make it worse.

The drag isn’t in the process. It’s underneath it.

KIVA is a structured 60-day engagement that identifies the systemic friction blocking your team and removes it.

Clients we have recently worked with: Redpin - Flutter - Domino’s Pizza - AstraZeneca - Ransom Naturals - Hubron International - AirTanker - William Hill - Landsec.

Why it works when everything else hasn’t.

The thing blocking execution is almost always the conversation your team has not yet been able to have.

We don't arrive with answers. We arrive with the ability to create conditions your team cannot create for itself - to surface that conversation, hold it to a conclusion, and make sure it sticks.

The result is not a report. It is a team that has resolved something real, together.

This is not a workshop. Not a coaching programme. Not a consulting project.

It is structured time - with the right conditions and the right support - to surface what's creating the drag, have the conversation that needs to happen, and come out the other side with decisions made and execution moving.

How it works.

Three moves. 60 Days. Execution restored.

Move 1: Diagnose

One day. Full leadership team in the room. Not a survey, not interviews - the conversation the team has not been able to have with itself. We leave with a clear recommendation on next step.

T+1 Day

Move 2: Align

Two to three working sessions over two weeks. Structured space for the team to surface what's creating the drag and work through it. We don't hand down answers. The work between sessions matters as much as the work in them.

T+2 Weeks

Move 3: Embed

We hold the team to its commitments. We don't close until something has genuinely shifted. By this point the team is running its own way of working - we're in support, not in front.

T+60 Days

Is KIVA the right response?

Not always. There are situations where something else will serve you better.

If there is a capability gap at leadership level, an interim executive is probably the answer. If the strategy needs work, a consulting firm is. If the structure is wrong, a restructure may be unavoidable.

KIVA is for the situation none of those responses is designed for: where the capability is there, the strategy is set, the structure is broadly right - and something in the team dynamic is still creating the drag.

KIVA works best with senior leadership teams of six to twelve people in mid-to-large organisations - typically FTSE 350, PE-backed, or comparably complex.

If you are unsure which situation you are in, contact us. We will tell you honestly, including if the answer is not us.
