MEET THE UP TEAM
HAVING FUN · BRINGING MAGIC · CHANGING LIVES
Building lasting relationships
We believe it is essential to align with our clients for authentic connection and purpose, for this reason we work with companies who value their people and are open to creating change that makes a difference.
The UP Team are a group of psychologists with a collective 38 years of experience in behavioural and organisational change. This gives us the insight to know that people do not approach problems, communicate their needs, prioritise their actions, or see the world in the same way as others. We understand that:
Finding the right solution to support your people, grow your business, and implement strategy is not a one-size fits all solution.
Most change programs speak to only one part of the human experience, but we understand that to empower growth and embrace change, humans need to move through four levels of being.
Change without behavioural embedding results in 81% of change programs failing while only 50% of most training investment is realised.
