Reviews
Concerns can be raised about anything from an institutional response to an incident, to relational conflict, to the design of the working environment. A proportionate response may not be a formal investigation, but if the issue remains unaddressed it won’t just disappear. In these cases, a no-blame organisational review may be the best way to move forward.
How a review works
- We begin by clearly defining the issues to be addressed in the review.
- We agree on the process to be followed, often laid out in formal ‘terms of reference’.
- We gather the information required to conduct sound strategic analysis, draw conclusions and make sound recommendations. Typically this involves stakeholder interviews and documentary review.
- A written report is produced, setting out the information considered, our analysis, and specific observations your team can act on. Where appropriate, our report may be accompanied by a presentation to your leaders or board.
Types of reviews
Psychosocial safety/Culture review
An independent assessment of your organisation’s psychosocial risk profile and workplace culture, benchmarked against recognised standards. Understanding your risk before it escalates is the clearest way to build a mature organisation.
Safeguarding rewiew
Following a safeguarding, child protection or child safety incident, this review examines the systems, structures and culture that led to the event. Understanding your strengths and vulnerabilities is the only way to close the gap and become a stronger, safer organisation.
Post-incident response review
An external assessment of how your organisation responded once a concern, disclosure or critical incident came to light, benchmarked against policies and procedures. A growing organisation learns from moments when it’s put under pressure.
Whether you’re getting ahead of risk or working through what’s already happened, an independent review turns that moment into an opportunity for organisational growth.
