The Niche Focus

Thinking Catalyst

We act as a catalyst for both individuals and groups in clarifying their thinking and goals. This may be through facilitated design discussions or one-on-one dialogue with experts to ‘unpack’ their expertise.

Group Facilitation

The development of organisations requires a recognition of the importance of groups and teams. Dr Craig Ashhurst (Director), has over thirty years experience in facilitating groups. Sessions are customised to take into account the particular needs and size of the teams.

Strategic Thinking

Niche Thinking helps individuals and groups work through their strategic issues, with an emphasis on planning and strategic direction days/sessions.
