Services 

Julian helps organisations use evidence and explicit values to make good decisions about policies, programs and other investments. His services strengthen evaluation and Value for Investment (VfI) capability through training, mentoring, and strategic advice.

Our Associates network brings deep expertise across disciplines and sectors, and can provide independent evaluations and VfI assessments when needed.

Capability building

The diagram below shows different ways of working together, from targeted advice and mentoring to project collaboration and organisation-wide capability building. The focus is on developing your team’s skills, ownership and evaluative culture over time.

For example, we can:

• Deepen your team’s VfI capability through targeted training, mentoring, technical advice, or peer review
• Work with senior leaders and boards to embed systems and mindsets that go beyond indicators, using mixed methods and meaningful evaluation
• Partner on a small number of strategic live projects in an advisory or co-design role, so your team learns VfI in real time while delivering the work.

Julian’s role is to bring targeted expertise where it will have the greatest value – helping teams make better decisions now and build the confidence and capability to do so independently over time.
