Preparing education and public sector organisations to achieve meaningful, enduring change.
D & G collaborates with organisations across the education and public sectors that are undergoing an array of change initiatives.
Employing evidence-based methodologies, we support organisations during the pre-change phase, which allows for a smoother, more successful implementation process. The strong infrastructure built through this preliminary work is essential if a change initiative is to succeed and endure. D & G guides clients to make more informed and effective decisions, with an adaptable process that values and utilises all stakeholders.

Who we are
We are a team of consultants who are highly experienced in public and education sector projects throughout New Zealand.
Founded in 2012, our boutique consultancy has built a reputation for executing complex projects, which enable public and education sector organisations to approach and sustain important change initiatives. D & G consultants help clients to consider the most appropriate way to approach their desired change, and to make informed, timely decisions that will carry momentum into the project’s implementation phase. Our deep subject matter expertise, coupled with our facilitation techniques and extensive relationships throughout the education and public sectors, allow our clients to experience a smoother process, as well as stronger outcomes.

D & G’s adaptable methodology is guided by four design principles, which allow us to tailor our solutions to fit the specific needs of each client and change project. These principles are:
Values
We develop an understanding of your values and incorporate them into the process and changes.
Collaboration
We cultivate organisational cooperation, which produces solutions all stakeholders accept.
Efficacy
We work within your timeframes and up to your expectations, without exception.
Innovation
We research new and emerging practices, allowing our clients to benefit from industry-leading insights.
