About
We Work Hard at Work Worth Doing
The Think Partnership was founded in 2011 with a simple vision; to support purpose-lead organisations to understand people and untangle complexity so they can do two things:
Align multiple partners and land in a unified, strategic ‘sweet spot’
Drive change and engagement that has a tangible and positive impact
Put simply, we connect people to the services that were designed for them and bring people together to get things done. This could mean connecting policy makers and communications teams, or marketing strategies with internal stakeholders, or diverse and hard to reach audiences with the campaigns designed for them.
We partner with - and embedded ourselves within - commercial entities, Government, NGOs, NFPs, and the public sector. We find solutions for the most knotty challenges and most importantly our solutions are always through a consumer-first lens. Our compass has always been set to ‘do good’. Which seems more important now than ever before.
Team
Our Thinkers
Think Partnership is an agile team of thoughtful, senior strategic consultants who strive to deliver on the challenge of the day. What’s more, they make sure strategic alignment is felt from the consumer all the way up to the CEO and board.
Expertise
It’s All About People
We don’t do any work that isn’t fundamentally about people. At the core, our role is to facilitate the right conversations and convene the right decision making. We listen, think and partner to untangle the most complex issues.

Driven by Empathetic Intelligence
At its heart, everything we do is about people. Individuals and groups of people can seem complex and at times irrational. Which is why we rely on something that ensures we’re always tackling the right problems; we call it Empathetic Intelligence.
Empathetic intelligence is an approach that allows us to get to the heart of the problem through a deep understanding of people and what makes them tick - whether that’s a customer, a stakeholder or a member of an internal team. This gives us the ability to leverage real human insights to drive organisational alignment, meaningful behavioural changes and communications impact.

Impact Agenda
The areas we’re passionate about and committed to advancing
In 2020, the state of uncertainty compelled us to think about the the areas we most want to apply our energy to. Our expertise is untangling complexity and we believe there’s no better use for our expertise than advancing these incredible agendas. Given all the work that has and is being done by so many we are seeing amazing progress in these areas, but these are tough, complex tasks to take on and we have a part to play too. We want to support those most in need to get to the services designed for them. We want to support re-building the economy so that women are mobilised to participate and investments in a greener economy are encouraged. We want to work with the change-makers to help clarify agendas, align strategies, bring people and actors together and ultimately remove obstacles to keep them doing what they do best, changing the world. The growing global instability, not to mention the COVID19 economy, has proven that these issues are interconnected. We also know that solutions work hardest when they’re interlinked. Our experience across each of these agendas puts us in a unique position to contribute to interlinked solutions.
