Strategic Systems & Legacy
You hire us to protect what you built.
This track is for CEOs, Boards, Family Offices, and organisations facing intractable conflict that threatens their reputation, governance, or financial stability.
We don't negotiate symptoms; we apply the ARDM Systemic Reset to debug the human system at the source.
We eliminate power imbalances, neutralize the Spoilers, and install the Adaptive Relational Practice (ARP) to ensure your legacy endures without internal chaos.

Systemic Failure Audit: ARDM Systemic Reset
Problem Solved: Chronic organisational toxicity, leadership misalignment, M&A culture clashes.
The ARDM Systemic Reset Includes:
Heat-Map of Failure Points: A comprehensive diagnostic report that visually maps the specific sources of toxicity, misalignment, and defensive patterns (Masquerades) across your organization.
The ARP Policy Pack: A set of actionable policies and behavioral guidelines designed to create a culture of psychological safety, accountability, and trauma-resilient governance.
High-Stakes Meeting Protocols: A new framework for conducting critical meetings, ensuring that decisions are made with clarity and collaboration, free from the influence of defensive dynamics.
Three Foundational Leadership Sessions: Intensive, targeted sessions to align your leadership team on the new practices and equip them to champion the change.
The Implementation Scorecard: A clear, measurable tool to track the adoption of ARP and ensure the changes are producing tangible results and lasting impact.
Value: We provide a complete toolkit to diagnose and repair your organizational culture. This process installs predictable, trauma-resilient governance and eliminates the chronic financial and reputational risk from internal toxicity.
Why it works: We move beyond surface-level symptoms by using the Masquerade Framework to diagnose the root cause of failure before implementing a measurable, sustainable solution.
The Intractable Conflict Solution: Therapeutic Civic Mediation (TCM)
Problem Solved: Disputes that threaten legal standing or reputation (family office succession, political/community conflict).
The TCM Playbook Includes:
The Ceasefire Protocol: A structured agreement to immediately halt all hostile actions—including threats, litigation, and public attacks—to create the psychological safety required for resolution.
The Spoiler-Neutralization Plan: A strategic framework to identify and neutralize the influence of hardliners and high-conflict personalities who actively sabotage progress.
The Joint Statement Draft: A facilitated process to co-create a unified public narrative that preserves reputation, de-escalates public conflict, and signals a shared commitment to a viable future.
The Legal De-escalation Playbook: A step-by-step guide to systematically wind down lawsuits and other legal actions, preventing further escalation and reducing financial and reputational risk.
Value: We provide a complete crisis intervention toolkit to de-escalate hostilities, neutralize internal saboteurs, and secure a lasting resolution built on moral accountability, all while avoiding costly court battles and reputational collapse.
Why it works: We bypass political stalemate by neutralising the hardliners, shadow sabotage and high-conflict personalities (Spoilers) and enforcing the Power-With framework, securing resolution without court or collapse.
Legacy/Family Business Mediation & Dynamcs
Problem Solved: Intergenerational conflict, shame-based governance, and succession breakdowns. The wealth and assets are fine, but the human system carrying the legacy is fractured by chronic, hidden resentments.
The Legacy Protection Toolkit Includes:
The Generational Legacy Audit: A confidential root-cause audit that maps the hidden resentments, shame dynamics, and intergenerational patterns fracturing your family's trust.
The Family Healing & Reconciliation Council: A series of structured, professionally mediated sessions designed to unbind shame and contempt and safely address long-standing conflicts.
The Psychologically Sound Succession Blueprint: A co-created plan that aligns family values with governance, ensuring a shame-free succession that protects both wealth and relationships.
The Family Communication Playbook: A practical guide with Mentalization practices and protocols for healthy communication, ensuring the family can navigate future challenges without repeating past cycles.
Value: We provide a complete toolkit to heal the root of family conflict, protecting your wealth by architecting a psychologically sound, shame-free succession plan that honors both the legacy and the individuals carrying it forward.
Why it works: We utilize the ARDM root-cause audit to expose the Binding forces of Shame and Contempt destroying trust. We then install Mentalization practices across the family system, ensuring governance prioritises legacy health over individual ego.
All engagements require a minimum fixed-term retainer, scaling with the complexity of the organization.
