What we do

Need evidence before you decide? We specialise in qualitative research with customers, staff and communities to understand their needs, emotions and behaviour. We combine this with quantitative research and your business data, so decisions rest on what people need and where the real costs sit.

Need a customer or CX strategy that is future focussed while still being achievable operationally? We work with your leaders and teams to set direction, get targeted about customer segments and experiences, and build the roadmap and measures that show whether it is working.

Want to change how the organisation delivers? We design the operating model, including the structure, roles, processes, governance, data and technology, with the people who run it, so the customer experience and the operation improve together.

Need a new service or change to land well? We bring customers, staff and stakeholders together to shape ideas and map the customer experience to the operations required to deliver them.

How we do it

We combine research with customers and staff with your business data, so decisions are grounded in what people need and where the real costs and issues sit.

Start with the evidence

We map the right level of organisational system and service to understand the root cause of issues and ensure that when we deliver change it doesn’t result in unforeseen systemic impacts.

Consider big picture impacts

While data helps us understand the past, it takes creativity to imagine what's possible. We use co-design to test ideas with the people who will use and deliver them – so solutions are practical, have buy-in and deliver results for the business.

Design the future together

Any new approach needs to be communicated broadly and effectively. Mimosa Partners specialises in simple and elegant narratives for teams, senior stakeholders, boards and more.
