strategic planning & Change management
We recognise at the heart of each organisation’s culture, is their why, their strategic and operational plan. Whilst there is no universally agreed strategic planning process. Blak Wattle’s process focuses on working with stakeholders to understand the transformative power of story and value setting to mobilise change.
Blak Wattle helps organisations define a bold vision for their future, where they intend to play to win, and creates a plan with objectives, goals and desired staff attributes to reach that future.

Caroline was just remarkable - she was such a powerful, insightful, gorgeous storyteller. Our team was captivated for the entire session, and felt privileged to have spent the time learning about her story, family and lived experiences as a First Nations woman. We highly recommend her workshops for any businesses that want to engage in cultural awareness training. We look forward to engaging Blak Wattle deep into the future, as we see this as only the beginning -
