Matt and Debbie are experts in the latest innovation frameworks and practices. I had read the books, but their deep experience really showed as they were able to blend the best from design thinking, lean startup, and disciplined entrepreneurship, amongst other approaches, to create unique processes that were specifically relevant to dsp and our opportunities and culture. Within 2 months, Matt and Debbie were instrumental in taking a blank sheet of paper through to delivered product on time, on budget and to customer acclaim.

Matt and Debbie have been a pivot point for our organisation. They provided a wealth of guidance and expertise to help us through the development planning process and we are now taking this forward for our future planning. Visualising our past, present and future activities helped us recognise our company successes, tighten our future development strategies and cross reference all departments within the company to ensure a strong and coherent company plan.

We started working with Debbie and Matt at Stocker Partnership at a the start of a big change period. Succession planning, ambitious growth plans and diversification were all on the agenda. The frameworks and ideas they brought to the table helped us to explore our vision for the future thoroughly; as a result we were able to mature our thinking. Most importantly, their flexibility meant they were right alongside us, every step of the way.

Taking time to focus on strategy has paid huge dividends. I started this company because I love working with customers to provide a solution that is tailored for them. At the same time I know how vital it is that I think strategically about where my company is going. Matt's coaching and business advice has been of particular use in identifying new opportunities and moving the business forward. With Matt's assistance we've become a leaner, more efficient business with an ever growing customer base.

Matt and Debbie did an amazing job when contracted to the Royal British Legion by quickly getting to the root of the problems we had. They are excellent at bringing together stakeholders and pushing them to work closely together to get the project moving quickly to ensure it delivers. There were a lot of interconnecting activities and they managed to join the dots and get them moving and working together on the same path.

Innovation can seem like a daunting subject that doesn't necessarily apply to your business on a day to day basis. When you think about innovation you tend to think of organisations like Apple. You might think, ‘I could never aspire to be an organisation like that.’

Stocker Partnership’s Masterclass on becoming more innovative has been useful because we've learnt ways that you can actually apply innovation to your business. Even if you’re a small business or a sole trader, you can still innovate and there are practical steps you can take to introduce innovation.

Debbie and Matt prepared the case study which formed the basis of the Warwick Business School International Healthcare Case Competition. The quality of their preparation and investigation was impeccable and the case set up a highly engaging and challenging scenario on which the whole competition revolved. I’d have no hesitation in recommending Stocker Partnership for this or related specialist support and I’d be delighted to work with their team again!

I have been fortunate to work with the Stocker Partnership on a number of occasions, always being thoroughly impressed with their ability to cut through the proverbial noise and support groups in defining, understanding and progressing propositions and business models. The combination of skills they bring to the table, provides participants with the resources and environment to first dissect the current state of the business, identify the forces within control and those in the market, to build a priority list of actions. The notes and direction provided as part of a session provide the foundations of a road map to enhancing team and business performance.
