A thinking problem,
not a resourcing problem.
Organizations invest in strategy and technology, but the decisions that make or break those investments still come down to how well people think through them. That's the gap we work in.
Founded to close a capability gap.
Centric Essentials Consulting was founded to work on a gap we kept seeing across sectors: teams get strategy and technology investment, but the underlying thinking skill needed to use them well gets left out.
We started in East Africa and have built out a facilitator network from there, working from one idea: thinking is a skill you can train, and it's the one that determines whether everything else pays off.
