The partnership came following 20+ years individually working with some of Australia's leading brands, when we were consistently reminded the role that implementation plays in the success of business strategy. Too often we see organisations invest a large amount of time, money and resources that result in substandard results or delays in implementation. Today’s business is predicated on being able to think fast, be creative and quickly adapt to the ever-changing environment.
Great strategy sets you apart from the competition and is crucial to your business success. No matter what size, Nichols+Norris enables organisations to accelerate their strategic growth by simplifying their strategy and motivating their people to deliver it.
Our motivation in working with organisations is to create environments that engage individuals via consistent messaging and clear communication, empower them by getting them involved, and embed behaviours with measurement and tracking tools that give visual dashboards to monitor individual and team performance and provide insights into new ways of working.
Whether it is at the start of the strategy planning journey or coming in at the implementation phase, Nichols+Norris can help with a variety of tried and tested frameworks to create the roadmap to see you succeed in getting that strategy off the ground.
What makes us different to other strategic planning organisations is that we leverage your company’s most valuable asset...your people. We engage and empower them by invoking a curiosity and passion about the strategy through creative processes.
Finally, we help you monitor performance, measure and track results with simple to use visual dashboards using the latest strategy tracking software.
Sarah Nichols, founding partner says, "after spending many years in blue chip multi-national companies, I was astounded to realise that many people in organisations had no idea what their strategies were or how they impacted them." While founding partner, Liz Norris, adds: "Sarah and I interviewed many senior and junior people from small to large organisations during the last half of 2015 and realised that there was a strong need for a consultancy that focuses on bringing these strategies to life to step in to assist either companies, business units or brand plans for strategic implementation."
Both partners bring significant levels of senior executive experience to their practice. In her early career, Liz launched a number of iconic and award-winning technology platforms for some of Australia's leading bands; in more recent years, in senior consulting roles to a number of organisations from small business to multinationals on organisational strategy and go-to-market plans, product development and business transformation, behavioural and culture change. Coupled with Sarah Nichols, ex Marketing Director for Brown-Forman (Jack Daniel’s), who has held many commercial and marketing roles for multi-national companies both in Australia and the UK, and has a wealth of experience in bringing brand and company strategies to life.
