WE EXIST TO HELP YOU SOLVE YOUR MOST DEMANDING BUSINESS CHALLENGES.

Welcome to Ben Wickham &Co.

We see things differently.

We support and enable the creativity, wonder, and magic that lie dormant in every organisation to find solutions to the most demanding business challenges.

We use storytelling, creativity, and systems thinking to facilitate, support, and create growth and change in the areas you want and need most.

We see things differently.

Change. Challenges. Setbacks. Dead ends. The impossible. Repeating patterns. Slipping targets. Retention. Attraction. Contraction. Decline. Failure.

We see it differently.

And we enable you to do the same.

We believe in the power of creativity to drive change and solve complex business challenges.

WHAT DO WE DO

We offer a comprehensive approach that includes:

Narrative Development

We craft your story. Your why, how & what. The change. The place you want to be. The thing you love doing, and the difference you’ll make. A contagious, evocative, anthemic, ass-kicking story you’ll be hiring Hugh Jackman to sing.

Behaviour, Shifts & Actions

Every tribe has a story. And then what? What does a story mean for your culture? How you work together? Your values? Customers? Recruitment? We take the organisation and explore the behaviours, actions, and things that need a nudge.

Systems Exploration & Transformation

We zoom out and work with the whole system. The obstacles, patterns, and interference that are standing in the way of good people doing great things, and a good business making a big difference.

Magic & Wonder

We believe organisations are full of untapped creativity, wonder and magic. We unlock, facilitate and support the creative potential of your organisation to live, make, design, sing, innovate, and breathe your story and transformation.

Complex Challenges

We embrace the most demanding business challenges with a blend of creativity, systems thinking, and innovation. By addressing both surface issues and root causes, we create solutions that are deep, transformative, and not just reactive.

Ongoing Support

And of course we can be around to help, support, advise, guide, think, create, design, entertain, sing and dance. Although to be honest, from this point, you’ve probably got it right.

HOW DO WE DO IT?

We empower organisations to tap into their inherent creativity and knowledge, enabling them to design solutions that are sustainable and impactful.

Listen Deeply

We begin by engaging in extensive listening sessions across all necessary levels of the organisation. This allows us to uncover both surface-level challenges and deeper systemic tensions. We aim to understand the “questions behind the questions” and the core drivers of the symptoms and opportunities an organisation is facing.

Collaborative Design

Once the underlying issues are identified, we design an approach rooted in systems and creative thinking. The aim is to address the root causes of the challenges, ensuring the solutions are sustainable and visible rather than just symptomatic fixes.

Make It Sing

We facilitate organisations to bring their latent creativity and magic to life - to create stories, solutions, opportunities and experiences that exist beyond the limitations of words and conventional thinking. The answer to all life's problems is always inside the organisation.

WHO DO WE WORK WITH

We partner with organisations and scale-ups across all sectors offering tailored solutions for in-person, hybrid, and remote teams to deliver real, lasting impact.

OUR CORE PRINCIPLES

  • We want to be, and do new things, outside the status quo, and stretch conventional thinking. Not for the sake of being different, but because the thinking that got us here will clearly not be the thinking that takes us where we want to be.

  • We have a mindset of optimism, opportunity, and possibility. We start every project with a ‘yes we can,’ not out of blind faith, but because together, everything is possible.

  • What it says. Simple in how we speak. Simple in how we communicate. Simple in how we charge for our services. Simple in what we want to achieve. Simple in how we execute. Big in how we dream. Big in our ambitions.

  • We love what we do, and have an absolute passion for all things artistic. and creative. We love our clients. and the bold dreams they have. And we laugh because collaboration, and creating something together, should always be fun.

WHY DO WE DO IT?

Because we believe unlocking creativity and a different way of thinking is critical to solving a business's toughest challenges. We help organisations harness their creative thinking to design practical, sustainable, impactful solutions.
