“In a world awash with technology and the benefits it can bring. We believe it’s people that have the answers and abundant potential to unlock. If you empower and connect them, they will be the adopters, innovators and architects of what’s possible. If you want to create change that works. Do it with empathy. Do it with people and their whole world in mind.”

— Claire Cater, The Social Kinetic, CEO and Hacker In Chief

Socialnomics

Socialnomics is our proprietary human-centred methodology which frames our thinking and underpins everything we do. It draws on the principles of behavioural science, system change and design thinking - the same human centred design principles used by the likes of Toyato, Apple, Google, Air BnB, GE, countries like Singapore, innovators and health systems around the world. This gives our work a framework and a clear place to start. It brings pace alongside structure to get you to an outcome sooner rather than later.

Supported by an expert team, creative and smart tools, and international network to draw learning from. This empowers our beloved clients to transform and achieve exceptional and positive impact.

“… excellent work. Delivered with considerable thought, skill and compassion. The whole process, the design, the delivery and the analysis was exceptional. I can’t thank you enough.”

Guy Fones, Head, Global Coordination Mechanism on Non-communicable Diseases; WHO

The Non Negotiables

Thriving, not surviving. We want to see everyone flourish - communities, individuals, teams, organisations and the planet. Our research and experience has taught us that life, health, creativity, community and our planet are intrinsically linked. They are the ingredients for thriving. We build giving back into everything we do. Transferring our skills and learning, empowering teams long after we are gone.

Diversity & equality. We engage the full spectrum of humans, needs, abilities, beliefs, preferences, experiences and points of view.

Planet. Sustainability is not a ‘nice to have’. It is an imperative and a key consideration for all projects.

Humane tech. Technology should respond to human needs and not create them. We work with and enable technology that has the potential to bring value to humans, systems and the planet.

Profit. We are social capitalists and believe in mutually beneficial solutions. Good for business, communities, places and people.

Creativity. Every significant breakthrough in history was made by people immersing themselves creatively in the problems of their field. Expect us to do the same with you.

If we can help, or you're just not sure where to start. You've got a thorny challenge or a big ambition. We would be thrilled to have a conversation.
