Effectively realizing change
Improvement doesn’t happen from an ivory tower.
In today’s business reality, we often see people working without context, losing touch with the organisation’s true purpose. Individual initiative is either not appreciated or often misdirected. The result is suboptimisation, rising costs, dissatisfied employees, declining performance, and ultimately, unhappy customers.
Our vision is that when your organisation consistently delivers on its promises – at reasonable costs and in an honest, reliable way – you will quickly become best in class.
With Penrose’s support, you break the vicious cycle. Together with you, Penrose organises and sustainably realises the improvement you need.
Pragmatism, Connection, Respect, Results
In a world in motion, change is the only constant.
Organisations must continuously improve and innovate. However, change and improvement rarely happen on their own. Penrose collaborates with people within your organisation to create the movement needed for change. The goal: development, improvement, and growth for both the organisation and the individual.
Pragmatism
Improvement can sound ambitious, especially when the goals seem far away. Just as Rome wasn’t built in a day, every improvement follows its own growth path. Taking a practical look at what needs to be done, organizing it systematically and structurally, and executing it together – that’s about getting back to what really matters.
Connection
Improvement is a collective effort, and it can be organised. It involves everyone in the organization, incorporating their perspectives on daily work and often years of experience, and where necessary, drawing on models, theories, and analysis. It’s about connecting theory (how it should work) with practice (how to make it practical and workable in everyday operations, within the existing constraints and frameworks). It’s also about building connections between management and employees from the ‘business’ side. Through co-creation, Penrose facilitates the movement that leads to effectively achieving the set goals.
Respect
Improving by valuing all involved employees, recognizing their knowledge and experience, and utilizing them purposefully. This way, everyone works from their own responsibility towards the same goal. Professionals, each with their own talents, strengths, and sense of responsibility, then work together.
Results
Improvement means achieving results that we all want to be sustainable. Change can also provoke resistance. From our perspective, we see resistance as a force that stems from engagement. Sustainable results emerge when we harness that force to serve the goal we want to achieve. This means clearly explaining what needs to be done and why, and consistently listening to what it takes to make it happen – over and over again.
