Organisational Performance & Strategic Facilitation
Intendere offers organisations deep capability in facilitation, coaching and leadership development supported by more than 40 years of combined experience across strategy, organisational performance, client growth and creative problem solving. This breadth enables us to help teams think clearly, collaborate effectively and build the alignment needed to move forward with confidence.
A core part of this capability is delivered through our Strategy Facilitator & Coach Ed Riley, who has worked with infrastructure organisations since 1996 to shape national growth strategies, develop sector and client plans and strengthen leadership performance across property, road, rail, water and energy markets. His background includes executive roles across Asia, specialist consulting in presenting and business development and almost four decades working with engineering, construction and utilities teams to target, win and retain high value clients and projects.
Ed’s expertise spans strategy facilitation, bid strategy and presentation coaching, leadership development and team alignment. He has helped organisations secure major alliances, reposition portfolios, win significant contestable contracts and build the next generation of leaders.
Through this combined capability Intendere creates calm, structured environments where teams can surface issues, navigate difficult conversations and build shared clarity on direction and priorities. Whether your organisation is shaping growth strategy, strengthening leadership or preparing for a high stakes pursuit, Intendere provides experienced facilitation and guidance to help your people align, decide and perform at their best.
How We Help
-
Executive and team facilitation
Facilitation for leadership teams and project groups that brings structure and clarity to strategy days, alignment sessions and performance resets. We help teams address competing priorities, build shared understanding and convert strategic thinking into practical next steps supported across the group.
-
Organisational performance uplift
Support to improve the way bid, BD and Corporate teams operate through culture insights, role clarity and refined ways of working. We identify behavioural patterns, gaps in alignment and structural friction points then guide people and teams toward practices that strengthen accountability, collaboration and delivery performance.
-
Decision making frameworks
Structured frameworks that simplify complex decisions by clarifying options, tradeoffs and risks. We help teams move beyond instinct or hierarchy and toward consistent, evidence-based decisions that enhance confidence and speed without sacrificing rigour.
-
Operating model reviews
Independent reviews that cut through noise to assess current-state effectiveness, decision pathways, interfaces and role boundaries. We provide practical recommendations that improve clarity, reduce inefficiency and support smoother delivery across functions, markets or business units.
-
Leadership capability development
Targeted development focused on communication, influence and leadership presence, particularly for leaders operating in complex project environments. We build capability around client engagement, team alignment, handling difficult conversations and presenting with clarity and confidence.
-
Lego® Serious Play® workshops
Hands-on workshops using the proven Lego® Serious Play® methodology to unlock creativity, innovation, improve collaboration and surface insights that traditional discussion formats miss. Particularly valuable for engineering, technical and delivery teams, this approach helps participants explore scenarios, visualise systems, test assumptions and co-create solutions in a structured, psychologically safe environment.
