New thinking for a different kind of challenge

Health systems need fresh ideas, different perspectives, and the courage to challenge conventional approaches. Our team brings all three.

Leaders who have run health systems, not just observed them
Our team includes former Trust CEOs, Medical Directors, clinicians, and system leaders. They bring the lived experience of making difficult decisions under real operational pressure, and the credibility that comes with it.
Proprietary tools built from a decade of R&D
The DI Platform consists of products like Workforce Decision Intelligence, Strasys Maternity Index, and the Board Operating System which combine advanced analytics, GenAI, and behavioural science into decision infrastructure that organisations use long term.
Multidisciplinary thinking that connects what others keep separate
The team spans data science, clinical practice, finance, behavioural science, strategy, and systems thinking. That breadth is deliberate. The challenges facing health systems today do not sit in a single discipline. Neither do the solutions.
Building capability, not dependency
The team embeds alongside leadership to build self-reliance, always starting from population need and working back through service design, workforce, and governance. Organisations keep improving long after we step away.

By Invitation

If you have a thesis,
we'd like to hear it.

The people on this page share something in common. Each of them has a point of view on what is broken in healthcare and the conviction to do something about it. They are clinicians, data scientists, system leaders, strategists, and innovators who contribute their expertise to a shared mission: redesigning health systems around the needs of the people they serve.

The work spans board advisory, clinical service redesign, population analytics, and leadership development across the UK and internationally.

We are always interested in hearing from people who think differently about healthcare. Not a CV. Not a cover letter. Just your perspective: what would you change about healthcare, why does it matter, and what evidence supports it?
