Change Management

According to the World Bank’s Independent Evaluation Group, roughly one in two projects dealing with public sector reform fail to achieve their development objectives. Part of the reason for this low success rate is that development agencies typically apply an “engineering” solution to complex problems.  

Reforming health or education is a typical complex problem. Muliptle agencies and players, political and vested interests, all competing in the sector. While learning from other countries has its benefits, its application in the local context needs to be introduced carefully to ensure it is owned.  Context matters, a lot!  Importing "best practice" from Malaysia might not work in Morocco. 

What if you tapped the tacit knowledge of people who work in these ecosystems and challenged them to achieve unthinkable goals, giving them the support and resources to succeed.  That's what we do. 

Not solutions imposed from afar but working in partnership with and creating a process for them to succeed. That is at the heart of what The Sublime Institute does -- work with leadership and front-line teams to tackle some of the most pressing issues they confront to achieve meaningful results.

And while achieving results is important, what this process allows is for solutions to emerge, and once evaluated to be  scaled up. It also helps identify the organizational structures, the information needs, and the human resource requirements to support high performance. 

So let us help you design a process that propels your organization to succeed.
