How we enable transformation
What makes ICE the perfect partner for transformation is our 3-stage person-centred methodology for change:
Insight - Dig into not only what people do and how they do it, but explore why people do what they do. We know it's the why that is the biggest influencer to their decision making and behaviours.
Co-Design - We work with your team, partners and their target audiences to co-design and build people-shaped products, services, experiences and environments.
Engage - We engage with our partners to embed change. We evaluate what we’ve designed to further our learning and understanding. We transfer skills and assets across to individuals, organisations and communities to sustain transformation.
We keep amazing company

What our partners say
Building leadership skills and capability of our senior clinical leaders is a fundamental part of transforming the way we deliver care for our patients at St George’s. Throughout our work with ICE it has been a highly enjoyable, collaborative and adaptive partnership. Jane and her team listened, challenged and delivered a creative and interactive programme, built on a clear understanding of our needs. The team created a strong and clear narrative across the workshops, balancing individual and group-based development. Critically there was plenty of time for reflection, shared learning and some fun along the way!

The habit of looking beyond the day-to-day, both at where we are headed personally, and at what others are doing beyond their division, organisation, industry and sector is essential for a connected system leader in our health and care system.
CEO Wirral Community NHS Trust
If you want to be successful and fulfilled in your work, and you want your organisation and ICS to be healthy and thrive, you must tap into your gifts, strengths and passion.
That can't happen if you don't know what those gifts are, for you to build on your strengths and align your passions.
Stuart Jackson
Founder and Creative Activist, ICE

This doesn’t just benefit you as a leader, but also your people, teams, organisations and ICS's. When each person knows & makes use of their gifts & strengths, group & team relationships are stronger & people achieve better results.
