The challenge

In alignment with their steadfast commitment to continuous improvement, Reed in Partnership directed their focus towards identifying opportunities to harness AI. Their challenge? To explore enhancing service effectiveness through the integration of AI, a pivotal step in their ongoing journey towards continual improvement and keeping at the forefront of digital innovation

The solution

We brought together the team at Reed in Partnership to talk about the challenges and opportunities within their organisation before narrowing it down to a specific area of focus. Using our Wild Ideation framework, we leveraged the varying skill sets of the team to understand what opportunity truly meant for the organisation and what this could mean for the business. We navigated through a change framework to align with the goals of the opportunity and understand what constraints would be dealing with. Our Wild Ideation session allowed the Reed in Partnership team to think differently and explore, follow and build on ideas in a safe space.

Following this we went through iterations of idea generation and categorisation of these ideas to understand what were feasible and easily implementable, original concepts with practical applicability within the current reality, and breakthrough innovations that, while not immediately feasible due to time or budget constraints, laid the groundwork for future exploration. This ensured a refined understanding of the possibilities and a clear roadmap for moving forward.

The impact

Reed In Partnership experienced a shift in mindset, with team members embracing new perspectives and approaches to problem-solving. We created a report for Reed to take to their board with a list of actionable ideas and feasible next steps as part of their Digital Evolution.
