Challenges we Address

All members of the CTLabs team are passionate about addressing tough challenges. Here are some that we have been addressing lately …

  •  Proposal Management – Pursuing the big contract does not have to be a painful process.  We can get you there collaboratively.  From concept to follow-through.
  • Collective Governance – Finding ways for diverse organizations to work together to achieve common objectives.
  • Prioritization – You’ve got $120 million worth of projects and a $12 million budget.  We’ve got your solution.
  • Collaborative Decision Support – Making hard decisions easier, collaborative and defensible.
  • Strategic Planning – Get your whole organization on board right from the get-go.
  • Organizational Teambuilding – You’ve never seen teambuilding like this before.  See LEGO.
  • Strategic Foresight – The future is …. collaborative.  We’ll work with your people to get you the best possible understanding of what is to come and what you might like to do about it.
  • Project Initiation – Get everyone aligned and moving forward with clarity.
  • User Adoption –  Need new technology? Want people to use it?  Engage your people early, and often. Design the solution and the rollout to their needs.
  • Change Management – They say people resist change. We disagree. Ask us about it.
  • Creating a Culture of Collaboration – Not easy.  But very possible.  It’s all about leadership and following through on what works.
  • Innovation – You need more than out-of-the-box.  You need TRIZ. We love to play with creative-types and TRIZ is the best innovation solution we’ve found.
  • Mergers and Acquisitions – Clarity on “is this the right thing to do” in a day or less.  Next, full buy-in and commitment on an action plan. Finally, a collaborative implementation strategy. All together, you’ve got a merger/acquisition in less than 100 days.
  • Partnerships – Bringing clarity to partnership conversations.  You’ll know whether it’ll work before lunch. After lunch you have a joint outcome and an action plan to get there.
  • Situational Analysis / Environmental Scans – Think BIG.  16 feet of wall space full of fresh ideas. We’ll get you clarity. See 12 Windows.
  • Public Consultations – If you need meaningful engagement, we’ve got tools for the job whether you have 30 or 300+ stakeholders.
  • Project or Organizational Rescues – It happens to everyone.  We would be happy to help. Typical turn-around in 5 days.
