Your culture is how work gets done.

When something feels off, it's usually because of one of these four things.

What feels most familiar?

How we connect

Meetings · communication · alignment
  • Our meetings eat the week, and half of them could've been an email.
  • We're busy, but we're not all rowing in the same direction.
  • The information people need is stuck in silos, or in someone's head.

How we own

Decisions · accountability
  • Every decision still routes back to me.
  • No one's quite sure who owns or decides what.
  • Decisions are slow, or we make them, then re-open them a week later.

How we grow

Expectations · feedback · development
  • People aren't clear on what "great" actually looks like.
  • Feedback here is rare, awkward, or changes nothing.
  • As we grow, the culture that made us us is quietly thinning out.

How we adapt

Change · experimentation · rituals
  • We're going through change and it just isn't landing.
  • We keep firefighting the same problems instead of fixing the root.
  • We struggle to try new things, and make the good ones stick.

Or maybe you've got a specific moment coming up.
An offsite to design, a restructure to get ahead of, an AI rollout that's exposed a few cracks.
Bring that. That works too.

In 90 minutes, you'll leave with four things.

01

The real problem, named

Not the symptom you came in with, but the root cause underneath it.

02

A practical way forward

Concrete next steps you can start on immediately, not someday.

03

The framework and tools to do it

A tailored toolkit, with templates and a canvas for your specific problem, sent straight after.

04

An honest read on scale

Whether this is a quick fix you can run yourself, or a sign of something deeper worth a proper look. Either way, you'll know.

The aim of a Clinic is to give you the tools to start solving the problem yourself.

Three steps, aimed at the right problem from the first minute.

1

A short diagnostic, first

When you book, you'll get a five-minute assessment built around the four parts of how a company works. So we spend our 90 minutes on the right problem, not the first ten figuring out what it is.

2

90 focused minutes with me

We diagnose the root together, design a way forward on the spot, and build you the beginnings of a solution, using 15 years of doing exactly this inside fast-growing companies.

3

Your toolkit, after

You get a tailored toolkit for your problem and a clear next step. If it turns out to be bigger than 90 minutes, you'll leave knowing precisely what would fix it.

Alicia in conversation at a session

I'm Alicia.

A strategic designer who's spent 15 years helping companies design how they actually work, as the right hand to founders scaling fast, across startups, government and FTSE 100s.

Not HR, and not a consultant who leaves a deck. I design culture the way a product team designs a product: based on your business outcomes, your people's needs, and how people really behave and work really flows.

One problem.
Ninety minutes.
A solid next step.

Virtual, 90 minutes, with a short diagnostic beforehand so it's focused from the first minute. Tell me what's slowing you down, and we'll get to work on it.
