Are you a leader of a growing business?
It's time to stop firefighting
Let our focused 30-Day KUDU People & Growth Navigation sprint help you get clear, take control, and lead with confidence.
Your business is growing fast, but behind the scenes it's started to feel a bit messy.
You might already be feeling cracks in your culture, managers are struggling to keep people on track, or good people are quietly drifting or leaving altogether.
Or maybe you know you need to step back and review the bigger picture - you just haven’t had the time.
This 30-day sprint gives you space to pause, zoom out, and tackle it properly - with external insight, a clear plan that moves you forward.
This isn't fluffy. It’s a strategic deep-dive into the people side of your business. It's built for leaders who want to grow well, without burning out or losing what made the business great in the first place.
At our core, we believe in empowering organisations to thrive in an ever evolving business landscape.
Leanne Bird, Founder
You're not alone
Are you stuck in the weeds?
You’re doing the doing - growing the team, putting in place support, getting people together regularly to bond - but something doesn't feel right.
Or worse - problems are showing up. You can't attract the right people, or the good ones are leaving altogether, performance has dipped, and when people problems pile up, you’re the one left untangling it all.
Here’s why:
You’ve outgrown the old ways of working, but haven’t had time to put new structures in place.
Your managers were great at their job - but no one taught them how to lead / they're trying to do their day to day job on top.
Everyone’s trying their best, but responsibilities and expectations aren't clear, and priorities shift daily.
Values haven’t been translated into clear behaviours or ways of working - so everyone’s interpreting the culture differently.
You’re making decisions based on what you think people need, but no one’s actually asked them.
None of this makes you a bad leader. It just means you’ve hit a stage where growth needs structure, and you need support - not more pressure.
If you don’t fix the root issues now, they’ll cost you later - in time, energy, money and good people.
The right people strategy pays off before things start to break.
That's where we come in
Perpective, clarity and an actionable roadmap
You don’t need to overhaul everything.
You just need space to step back, make sense of what’s going on, and decide what to do next – with confidence.
That’s exactly what the 30-Day KUDU People & Growth Navigation gives you.
A focused strategy sprint to help you lead your team forward – without the chaos.
It’s not the whole journey – but it’s the starting point that makes everything else easier.
Tailored to your business
Here's how it works
1
Health check
A strategic questionnaire that highlights pressure points across the four KUDU lenses - structure, leadership, culture, and talent. You’ll get a clear score for each area (and overall), so you can see what’s strong, where can be improved, and where to focus first.
2
Navigation session
A 2-hour strategic session using your diagnostic results and discussions with you (and your leadership team, if included). We’ll define what “good” looks like, align people goals with business goals, and get clear on what needs to shift to move you forward.
3
Tailored roadmap
After the session, you’ll get a clear, practical roadmap showing where to focus first - with short term actions, deeper questions to explore, and longer-term priorities. It’s not about fixing everything at once - it’s about knowing where to start and why it matters.
4
Prioritisation call
A short follow-up to help you make confident decisions. We’ll talk through your roadmap, help you choose what to act on first, and make sure you leave with focus - not a long list of actions.
5
End-of-sprint check-in
A 30-minute follow-up call to keep things moving. We’ll check what’s working well and any barriers, answer questions, and make any tweaks to the plan based on what’s come up since the session.
£995 investment
This isn’t just about fixing problems - it’s about setting your people, leadership, and culture up to scale with your business, not against it. For £995, you’ll walk away with clarity, direction, and a focused roadmap - plus the option to keep working together to embed real, lasting change.
That's where we come in
The Four Lenses of the KUDU Framework
To help you build a business where great people want to join, choose to stay, and are set up to thrive. That’s what sits at the heart of the KUDU People & Growth Navigation, and everything we do beyond it. We call it:
ATTRACT – RETAIN – THRIVE
Simple to say. Powerful when it actually happens. And we make it happen by focusing what's happening through 4 key lenses:
People Structure & Process
Are roles, responsibilities, and expectations clear? How do we gather people insights and feedback? How do leadership communicate across the business? Are the policies and processes in place and fit for purpose?
Leadership, Management & High-Performing Teams
Are managers equipped to lead - or just coping? Where are the gaps in capability or confidence? Do they know how to manage performance in an open, productive and supportive way? Are they given the time to lead effectively?
Culture, Engagement & Wellbeing
How does it feel to work here? Are people connected, motivated, and supported? Are there effective options in place if people are struggling? What example do the leaders set?
Talent, Employer Brand & Retention
Are you attracting the right people. What is your retention strategy to keep the ones you've got? How are you considering attracting, support and developing individuals during their employee journey?
This framework helps us see the patterns and pressure points - and gives you a structure you can keep using long after the sprint ends.
Short term sprint, to plan for long term wins
Why it works
This sprint is designed to give you real, usable outcomes — not just ideas.
You’ll walk away with:
Why now?
People problems don't tend to explode...
No, they creep in.
And the longer you wait, the more it costs you:
- 🕒 Time – spent firefighting, double-doing, and fixing things that shouldn’t have gone wrong
- ⚡ Energy – drained by unclear roles, difficult conversations, and problems that didn’t need to be problems
- 🚪 Talent – slipping out the door, or checking out quietly before they do
- 💸 Money – lost to constant recruitment, retraining, and lack of engagement
- 🧠 Wellbeing – for your people, and for you – stretched thin, under pressure, and carrying the mental load of the team
Most leaders wait until it’s undeniable. The smart ones act before it’s urgent.
They take the time to step back, get perspective and keep things on track before they break.
Who's it for?
And who's it not for?
It's for you if...
You’re a leader of a growing business or you’re feeling the growing pains from previous growth
You care about your people and want to lead well but don’t know how to do it all on top of the commercial side
- You want clarity fast, but appreciate that real, effective change takes time, things won’t happen over night
You are prepared to allocate appropriate resources to do the work and are open to different points of view
It’s not for you if...
You’re looking for tick-boxes or a feel-good team day to promote on your socials
- You’re not ready to take action or want t wait till there is a perfect time to act
What our clients say
We are here to help
Yes, but what if…?
I think everything is working fine.
✔ Brilliant.
But small issues don’t always announce themselves—they creep in, like a slow leak in a roof. What worked at 20 people won’t work at 50, and what works at 50 won’t scale to 200. The businesses that get ahead of people challenges before they impact retention, performance, or leadership capacity are the ones that scale the fastest and most sustainably. Don’t wait for the ceiling to fall in!
I don’t want to disrupt things if they’re working well
✔ This isn’t about fixing what’s broken
It’s about future-proofing your growth. Scaling brings complexity—more people, more processes, more leadership challenges—and what feels fine now can quickly become overwhelming. The businesses that scale successfully are the ones that evolve their people strategy alongside their growth.
I don’t have the headspace for this right now.
✔ I hear you
There’s always something more urgent when you’re growing fast. But the longer you patch over cracks, the harder they’ll be to fix later. If you want to scale successfully, your people strategy needs to grow alongside your business. The sooner you take action, the easier it is to make small adjustments now instead of dealing with costly problems later.
I'm worried staff will see this as a criticism
✔ This isn’t about blame—it’s about support.
As businesses grow, employees need clarity, leadership needs confidence, and culture needs to stay strong. The Navigation helps identify where people need better structures, leadership, or processes to do their jobs well and stay engaged. Employees appreciate leadership that listens and acts proactively.
I'm concerned it will give teams an excuse to push back
✔ At this stage, discussions stay within leadership.
If you move forward with a KUDU People & Growth Audit, we involve employees in a structured, solutions-focused way—keeping leadership in control and business objectives at the forefront.
This is part of People & Culture / HR’s role.
✔ Absolutely. But even the best HR and People leaders need support.
For HR teams, this is exactly what you should be leading—but the reality is, capacity, resources, and leadership buy-in don’t always allow you to do this work to the depth needed.
For CEOs and leadership teams, your People & Culture lead is there to drive strategy—but when they’re constantly firefighting, it’s hard for them to take the strategic, objective view, conduct deep research, and implement long-term solutions.
📌 We’re not here to replace HR—we’re here to support them.
We provide the capacity, helicopter view, and research that helps:
✔ HR & People Teams make time for strategy instead of just firefighting.
✔ Leadership get the insight needed to act with confidence.
✔ Ensure people challenges are surfaced and addressed before they become retention or performance risks.
I don't want to just do another strategy session
✔ This isn’t some navel-gazing, let’s talk in circles, and do nothing afterwards session.
This is a real, structured, and action-focused process with a laid out pathway. You’ll walk away with a clear roadmap, practical next steps, and a partner who’s got your back.
