Nous assists information and knowledge based businesses to maximise their performance through the alignment and skills building of people and information management.
Nous typically works on issues that it believes promise character, challenge and multiple layers of benefit for the client. We have expertise in strategy, public policy, leadership and management development, organisational and information driven change, information management and knowledge sharing. Our consultants bring depth of relevant expertise, a rigorous strategic thinking ability and insightful frameworks to our projects.
Led by Managing Director, Tim Orton, The Nous Group brings together an invaluable suite of complementary skills that generate insights and recommend action to improve the performance of our client's organisation.
The Nous Group was established in 1999 because its founders wanted to apply their management consulting and leadership development capability to issues that mattered, with clients who shared some commonality with Nous' values. We do not see ourselves as 'minds for hire'; rather we aim to choose the challenges to which we devote our working effort.
The essence of Nous is captured in its five values:
Positive influence
Growth, energy and exuberance
Intellectually stimulating
Care and connection
Revenue and profit
Of these, the first is our pre-eminent value, the middle three reflect our style, and the final one is a pre-requisite for continued existence. Positive influence is manifested through good, compelling, practical ideas and the organisational and leadership capability to realise them.
In terms of Nous' work, these 5 values translate through our strategy into guidelines in terms of the mix of clients with whom we work. Through our strategy, we have focused on clients for whom there is a high return on good ideas, outstanding people and the effective use of information.
