How
i2i Strategies can work with organisations in a consulting or contracting capacity. Consulting offers independent advice for organisations to consider and implement themselves. Contracting is a more hands on role to work with an organisation to achieve its objectives. Its approach is to offer a timebound injection of knowledge and expertise that builds internal capacity and enables a clear and timely exit strategy.
Where necessary i2i Strategies can draw together the expertise from a range of associates to create and manage an external team with the necessary disciplines to progress larger strategy projects.
Who
i2i Strategies was established in 2019 by Keith Tallentire. Keith has over twenty five years’ experience in strategic roles in New Zealand and the UK. He has advised Ministers, Mayors, Chairs and Chief Executives, primarily in a local government context and with a focus on sustainable urban planning and regeneration. His particular strength is an understanding of multi-agency partnerships – why they might be needed, how to get the most from them and how to avoid the potential pitfalls that can cause them to falter.
“A desire to work for good – for people and the planet – led me into local government and the nexus of sustainability, resilience and regeneration. Recognising that meaningful progress to improve wellbeing so often requires many players to work together my career soon explored the power of partnerships. This is elegantly captured in the Māori whakataukī – kotahi te aho ka whati, ki te kāpuia e kore e whati; one strand of flax is easy to break, but many strands together will stand strong.”
Further details and case studies are included in this company proficiency statement, or simply follow Keith on LinkedIn.
