Our Workshops
Our workshops are for people building businesses.
Consequential is committed to co-designing with our clients responsible and resilient approaches to building businesses and products.
In the course of our work with businesses, we’ve developed consistent methodologies to help leaders and teams create things that will have a positive impact on stakeholders. We’re now offering workshops to get people started on building the businesses they intend.
We offer these workshops for individual teams or businesses, or for existing cohorts within accelerators, incubators or other entrepreneurship or business learning experiences. We value openness and accessibility, so all of these 2hr workshops are offered at a set rate of £2,000 per workshop for up to 10 people*.
*If you’re a start-up or charity or if this is out of your reach, we’re happy to have a conversation about your specific needs.
Big Picture Strategy
creating a compelling vision & mission
Your vision and mission statement are more than lovely words written on your website. They should be one of your most useful tools for business planning and decision-making. In this workshop we’ll help you start to craft a compelling vision and mission that captures the impact you hope to have and gets others to lean in.
creating guiding principles
Guiding principles help you outline how you want to behave as you achieve your mission and your business strategy. They are essential for determining the ways you want to work together, operate your business, and build products and services. We’ll help you harvest ideas, and create a process for finalising your principles and putting them to use in your business.
Governance & Legal Structures
deciding how to incorporate
When you're looking to go from idea to business, you’ll have to decide how you want to incorporate. In this highly interactive workshop we’ll help you look at the different types of legal structures that exist, and explore the critical factors that will help you make the decision about what structure is right for you.
exploring emerging governance structures
As more founders experiment with the role of business in society, there’s a greater demand for understanding ways a business can be governed. In this workshop we’ll help you explore what type of governance structure you may want to operate under as you build and grow your business.
Designing your business
setting meaningful goals and objectives
What gets measured gets managed. This is why setting the goals and ambitions for your business and making sure you’re measuring the right things is critical. In this workshop we’ll take you through a 4-step cycle on how to set and measure your goals in ways that will help you be daring and smart.
from principles to practice
One of the most overlooked but crucial things when building a business is to intentionally design practices for how your teams will work together, your business will operate, and how you create and deliver your products. This workshop will take you through our 3-step methodology for designing a practice which is informed by your guiding principles.
building accountability: celebrating progress and addressing failure
As a leader, how you decide to celebrate success and address failure sets the tone of your business. Rituals that help you do this are an important part of staying accountable to your goals. In this workshop we’ll help you design what this could look like for you and your business.
Responsible products and marketing
setting ethical guidance for projects
In this highly explorative session we help teams to surface concerns and ideas they have about the ethics of a project. From that discussion, we help teams formulate governance and guidance for any tech or data project.
creating product principles
Product principles help you set out the design and impact intentions of the product and features you are creating. When you have a growing team, taking the time to create guidance that helps address trade-offs can save you money, resources, and headaches later.
storytelling for responsible brands and products
How you communicate value to stakeholders is at the heart of a successful business. We will help you explore how you can frame the features of your product and your company’s values to showcase how they will have a positive impact.
