Consultancy

Nakedize’s innovative educational resources have all evolved from a mixture of research, thinking, design, and decades of commercial experience. Your organisation can call on all that thought leadership and experience through our three consultancy services. These services are provided by Nakedize principal Simon Hertnon.

Unlike most consultants, Simon is equipped to teach as he troubleshoots

Consultants are typically hired to troubleshoot – to fix a costly problem, or to temporarily plug a capability gap. Sometimes the work is ‘one-off’, but much more commonly the skills required for the work are needed in other areas, or at future times. So one shortcoming with consultants is that there is no residue of skills after the project or assignment is completed.

Education is the driving force behind Nakedize, so we will always offer to educate as part of our service delivery. Finding the simplest ways to explain the most useful knowledge is our speciality.
