DESIGN
CONSULTANCY
FROM GAVIN AUTY
I partner with organisations open to the possibility that design thinking and a creative culture is good for business.
I believe design and creative-thinking are tools that can positively shape business performance, impact and growth.
I help organisations understand the power and potential creative-thinking and problem-solving can have in helping the business move forward with speed, clarity, understanding and perspective.
How can design positively shape business performance, impact and growth?
GOOD DESIGN IS GOOD BUSINESS…
Most leaders and founders don’t come from a design background. That means their views on design often come from assumption rather than experience. And that’s a missed opportunity.

INNOVATE
Use design to solve business challenges, spark innovation, and explore potential opportunities.

INSPIRE
Make design part of your company’s mindset, strengthening culture and creative problem-solving.

CREATE &
COMMUNICATE

I’m Gavin Auty
A COMPASSIONATE COLLABORATIVE & CREATIVE CONSULTANT FOCUSSED ON PROGRESS, POTENTIAL & PERFORMANCE
SIZE DOESN’T MATTER
I mostly work with SME’s and leadership teams open to new ideas and ways of thinking, willing to get honest and have sometimes difficult conversations.
STRAIGHT UP
I work best in an open and honest environment. My approach is straightforward, curious and collaborative. Whilst I understand internal politics and bureaucracy can easily develop, there’s little point working together if they hinder our ability to make decisions.
EGO’S AT THE DOOR
I work with open, grounded and forward-thiinking founders, leaders and teams willing to learn, understand and experiment with design and creative thinking
AROUND THE BLOCK
Over the past 20 years I’ve worked with hundreds of organisations across design, brand and creative problem solving.
