What we do

We develop capabilities
that make organizations resilient
and their business sustainable
by radically focusing on human behavior.

Purpose - Collaboration - Change - Trust

Otolith is a boutique advisory house that focuses on the human side of strategy. We ask what makes organizations resilient and sustainable.

We truly believe that organizations can only be successful when they focus radically on human behavior. People make a business successful. Business success is intertwined with the progress and accomplishments of people. So businesses better ensure that people are willing and able to create sustainable value for all stakeholders.

We call that a radical focus on human behavior: We can design resilient and sustainable organizations over time by looking at what people need to thrive.

Get in touch

These are the questions we get from our customers.
These are the challenges we tackle.

How can we make our purpose more clear?

This multi-business industrial organization came to us to help them define a meaningful purpose that is meaningful to all employees. We designed a facilitated process that involved the executive committee and people from all businesses. Progress through conversations, you know.

How can we make the matrix work?

An organization came to us to help their matrix organization function better. The first question is of course why they have a matrix. But by working on both the hard and soft wiring of matrix organizations, we were able to help them to take a step forward. 

How can we become a values-driven organization?

A young industrial company came to us to help them define their identity. Not only did we help them discover their values, but we also helped them to implement them. Values should be linked to behaviors. We also helped them define a vision. 

How can we improve our governance?

A growing company came to us to improve its governance and adapt it to its growth strategy. We helped them define new governance processes and structures. 

How can we build a culture of collaboration?

A growing company in the Pharma Industry wants to preserve a culture of collaboration. We help that company by actively supporting and developing collaborative behaviors. 

How can we stick to our strategy?

Sticking to a strategy is a challenge. On the one hand, strategies must evolve, on the other hand they must provide behavioral guidance. We helped the management team of a services organization to implement a strategic cycle. 

How can we strengthen our Leadership?

This is a question we get many times. There are no quick solutions. It takes time. But we know how to do it, so we help to design and implement leadership development processes. We did this in various industries.

How can we make our organization future-proof?

Our customer found themselves in a transition phase. After years of stability, their industry was changing and they need to respond and look far into the future.

How can we accelerate our strategy execution?

This smaller organization worked on a strategy definition and implementation with us. In a subsequent process, we recalibrated the strategy, pinpointing the missing capabilities.

How to fix the collaboration problem?

Collaboration is one of the critical human capabilities that define strategic success. Collaboration issues often start at the top. We helped an organization in services to improve the collaboration among the top team.

How to keep our business sustainable?

When organizations come to us with that question, they are not talking finance or ecology. They are talking about people. Designing organizations that are sustainable and support mental well-being is something we do. 

Strategies do not fail.
People do.

There are 4 reasons for that.

This is how we work

We see ourselves as an extra engine to gain speed.
Strategic & Sustainable

Everything we do is aimed at helping to get your organization ahead. If it does not support your strategy, why should we even bother?
And at the same time, we focus on a sustainable future.

People-Centric

Our focus lies radically on human behavior: people. Strategies are made and executed by people. So we think we should design organizations and strategies with the human dimension in mind.

Embedded & Empathic

We listen to what you need and we are close to you. Our consultants have a high capacity to integrate fast. But don’t worry; they won’t stay longer than needed.

Evidence-Based

Where we can, we will integrate scientific evidence into our work. It’s our first step. But we have tons of experience to add to that.

Design-oriented

We don’t believe in copying. We want to support your strategy, not copy the strategy of Google, Spotify, or any other company (although we think they do great stuff).
