Our Approach
We recognise one size doesn’t fit all. Every business comes with its own culture, politics and experience, so our starting point is unique to you. We use tried and tested approaches which we know will deliver, but we love innovating to ensure we stay relevant and meet the brief!
Our Story
Spotty Dog Strategy was formed in 2015 from a passion for bringing out the best in people and organisations. We love what we do and we hope some of that passion comes across in our workshops, training and expert knowledge. Bertie, our Spotty dog, lends his charisma and strategic prowess to our company name and attitude!
Our values
Our three brand values are Be different, Be generous and Be responsible.
We are a small, adaptable bunch who recognise "the way it's always been done" isn't always the best way.
We take time to appreciate those we work with and feel there's more to people than just work.
We also don't make promises we can't keep.
