Influence is a management consultancy company leading the way to a wiser tomorrow. Through thoughtful and often bold curation of knowledge we help make ideas and businesses grow in a sustainable way.

Why we do it.

The contemporary role of consulting.

The contemporary role of consulting.

In a world blinded by speed and made up boundaries, it can be easy to lose sight of what’s important and miss the obvious but crucial knowledge gaps. Management consultants are central in helping organizations navigate this by shining a light on gaps and dismantling the barriers that stand in the way of achieving success and maybe even wisdom.

At Influence, we strive to make the world more collectively intelligent. This world would be a better place for individuals, teams, and society as a whole. When people’s competencies are valued and validated within teams and organizations, change, innovation, and growth thrive.

Pioneers of Collective Intelligence

At the essence of all meaningful and sustainable change to the better you find humans, ordinary people. We know that high performing teams, individuals and organizations excel in their ability to integrate knowledge, make well-informed decisions and convert them into viable and long-term meaningful results.

This means building organisations that support and mobilize self-navigating individuals and teams who are adaptable and able to customize their approach to meet complex and dynamic targets. A high-level of Collective Intelligence opens up ecosystem collaboration and value across the entire business spectrum.

“Our increasingly complex and specialist society creates a growing need for intelligence. Artificial Intelligence will not solve this problem. What organizations need is Collective Intelligence.”​

Bringing out the best in humans

At our best, we humans can do wonders. Often our existing, dated response to complex needs, is structure. We focus on adding an ‘intelligence layer’ instead of further structure and processes. Organizations need a framework to work by, but over-complicating structure is counter-productive.

Our research shows how Collective Intelligence strengthens the intelligence layer which results in better collaboration, creativity and innovation. This layer is based on teams’ ability to integrate individuals’ knowledge, experience and intelligence. Bring your diversity, bring your best.
