Modern Work is a strategy studio — a hybrid of management consulting and communications design.

Unlike the typical output of a management consulting firm, our work harnesses design to engage, inspire and align actions. And unlike the typical output of a design firm, our work is always rooted in strategic thinking.

How we think and work is grounded in foresight — using a view of what’s ahead to shape current decisions and actions.

What makes us different is our ability to:

  • deepen and align perspective to create greater shared foresight.

  • use institutional memory and foresight as a basis for exploring the future.

  • develop strategic hypotheses and test them in a way that is both creative and critical.

  • continuously clarify strategic intent to close gaps between strategy and execution.

  • activate strategic thinking for new strategies and possibilities to emerge over time.
