Your art is the act of taking responsibility, challenging the status quo and
changing people and their circumstances for the better.
Art is not in the eye of the beholder. It’s in the soul of the artist.
Art is original.
Art is a personal gift that changes the recipient.
Art is a personal act of courage, something a human does that creates change in another.
Art is someone who uses bravery, insight, creativity and boldness to challenge the status quo.
Art is never defect free. Perfect means standardised and that is not remarkable. (Perfect in its imperfections)
Art is scarce. Because it is scarce it is of high value.
Art matters because it has intent. It tries to change something for the better.
Our approach
SlightlySkew is an integrative, functional business design method,
which promotes that all parts of the business are connected, work together,
and impact each other to create extraordinary value.
In this thinking and dreaming stage, we start by asking you to pause, listen closely and contemplate what it is that motivates you to have your business. We work with you to uncover and describe the WHY that drives your business and is at the heart of all that you do. We crystallise this with you, filtering it down into its core truth, ensuring that this truth connects with your people – your customers – and synchronises your products and services with their needs and wants.
This step deliberately designs the spinal cord that structures, connects and integrates the essential parts of your business. When these building blocks are shaped, arranged, carefully engineered and then put in motion, they strike a rhythm that builds unstoppable forward momentum and keeps growing.
It ensures that the right work is done and can get done. Also, that the output of that work is purposefully directed and delivered to the right recipients and that process can be tracked and measured at every point.
SlightlySkew comes alongside business owners and entrepreneurs and looks intently at the building blocks of your business to ensure that they shape and fit together to create a rhythm that delivers the extraordinary. Consistently.
To realise the redesign of your business requires building the capability that enables you to rearrange and realign its different parts to strike the rhythm that delivers extraordinary that continues to resonate with your customers consistently.
Extraordinary standards are maintained by continually casting a retrospective lens on the process and outputs of your business by intentionally measuring and assessing all that is done, all the time.
Doing this casts a light on opportunities to continually improve and innovate to keep doing things that are exceptional and out of the ordinary. It ensures that you always set your own bar higher, stay at the top of your game and that you keep surprising and delighting your already enchanted customers.
“It’s all in how you arrange the thing…the careful balance of the design of motion.”
Andrew Wyeth
