The first conversation
Find your first move
Thirty minutes about your priorities, the systems and information involved, and who would need to say yes. You leave with three candidate first moves and a view of what a responsible start looks like for your organisation.
No charge. No employee records required. No slides about us.
Choose a time that suits you.
Pick a 30-minute slot, at no charge, and you are booked in straight away. The call runs on Microsoft Teams with one of our team members; the invite arrives by email and shows in your own calendar’s time zone.
Phase Zero and HRIS Vendor Selection conversations are welcome here. Each is a standalone service with no AI engagement required. For Phase Zero, use the notes box to share the outcomes you need help to achieve and your current stage, including any system already selected.
When you reach the calendar, it asks our booking service for available times. That check carries nothing you have typed and sets no cookies. When you book, your name, email, any phone number and notes go through our booking service to Microsoft Bookings, which arranges the call and sends the Teams invite. If you have accepted analytics and marketing cookies, the campaign codes from the link that brought you here go too. See the privacy policy.
No suitable time, or the times are unavailable? Request a time instead and we reply within two working days.
Three parts, ten minutes each.
What you are trying to achieve
The priority, who benefits, and what the team would spend more time on if it worked.
What is already available and permitted
Which information and decisions are involved. What your systems can already do. Who owns approval, and who has rights that come first.
One bounded next step
What evidence would support a decision, a named owner and a date. We recommend the smallest credible next move.
“What evidence would make this a responsible decision for you and for the people affected by it?”
The question every first conversation comes back to.
Request a time instead
If none of the available times suit you, or the calendar is unavailable, send a request. Thirty minutes, online, in your working hours, with no charge. Tell us your role and, if you like, what you would like to talk about; we reply within two working days with two or three times.
Where are you on the ladder?
Six questions. The result suggests where a first conversation would start. Nothing is stored or sent.
The ladder is the journey itself: read, talk, start, build, amplify. Wherever the check places you, get in touch to discuss the next step.
