Midsummer Studio

Midsummer was created from a passion to put people back at the heart of change.

So often, change is done to people, rather than to enable people to achieve the business strategy. There is often an expectation that people will adapt with the flick of a switch. The reality couldn’t be further from the truth.

People’s lives can be turned upside down, especially if they aren’t equipped with the right tools or skills to navigate change. Even in today’s society, organisations are still catching up to new methods and modern leadership style when it comes to managing change, and the effects can be devastating on performance, profit and, most importantly, people.

Midsummer is a place where we listen to our clients’ cultural, leadership or team challenges and then co-create solutions, bringing psychology, different ways of thinking, and a healthy dose of experience in developing people and changing cultures to create sustainable change.
