Unlock your organisation’s potential
In today’s fast-changing business environment, leadership teams face complex challenges that demand more than surface-level solutions. Untangle is a collaborative organisational development workshop designed to help management teams identify the hidden barriers to success, agree on priorities, and create actionable solutions — all in just 4 hours.
No complex setup. No external consultants.
Just a sharp, structured process that sparks honest conversations within your leadership team, surfaces the root causes behind what’s holding you back, and aligns everyone on what needs to change.
A scientifically proven method, reimagined
Developed using the Silent Killers model by Professor Emeritus Michael Beer of Harvard Business School, Untangle is grounded in decades of research into why strategies fail. Beer’s work, validated by hundreds of organisations worldwide, identifies six recurring organisational barriers that undermine performance. Untangle brings this proven method into a dynamic, collaborative format that is easy to run, accessible on demand, and designed for real-world impact.
The Silent Killers model is one of the most respected frameworks in organisational development. It pinpoints issues such as unclear strategy, ineffective leadership, poor coordination, and lack of performance dialogue. Untangle uses this model not as a lecture, but as a practical tool for diagnosis and change.
Participants work through a series of engaging, research-backed exercises to:
Understand the Silent Killers framework
Assess how each factor plays out in your own organisation
Identify priority areas for action
Agree on concrete steps forward
This ensures that your organisational development workshop moves seamlessly from insight to execution — something that traditional, facilitator-led workshops often fail to achieve.
How it works
Your team is led every step of the way by a pre-recorded workshop guide, ensuring a structured and effortless experience. No need for sticky notes, whiteboards, or external facilitators.
Minimal Preparation: Group organisers can initiate the workshop with just 10 minutes of setup—no external consultants or facilitators required.
Structured Guidance: A pre-recorded workshop guide leads your team through each step, ensuring a focused and engaging experience.
AI-Powered Insights: Optional support from the AI assistant, Ruzz, helps deepen discussions, find the root causes and prioritise key challenges.
Digital Workflow: All reflections and action points are captured digitally, eliminating the need for manual note-taking.
Prioritisation Tools: Use the built-in Urgency vs. Impact exercise to evaluate which root causes need immediate attention and which can be tackled later.
Immediate Results: Access and share outcomes instantly, with no additional processing required.
With Untangle, your team can move from uncovering hidden organisational roadblocks to taking clear, strategic action. All in one self-led, expertly guided session.
