HOUR Strategy

The great force of history comes from the fact that we carry it within us, are unconsciously controlled by it... history is literally present in all that we do.
— James Baldwin

HOUR: Empowering Change though Design Thinking

At HOUR, we're not just consultants — we're agents of change. Founded by principal Reginauld Williams, our consultancy harnesses the power of design thinking to transform insights into tangible results. We understand that impactful storytelling requires empathy and a deep understanding of your organization's 'why'. Our approach is rooted in uncovering the root causes of your challenges and translating those insights into quantifiable impacts that drive your brand story forward.

Our Approach: Empathy-Driven Solutions

At HOUR, we believe in the power of empathy to drive meaningful change. We understand that organizational design and storytelling for social impact require a holistic approach, honoring the stories of every individual involved. Whether you're navigating the complexities of the social justice field or optimizing your business operations, we're here to simplify the process — one hour at a time.

Our Process:

Our recommended starting point begins with an introduction to design thinking, providing a comprehensive overview of its core principles: Empathy, Define, Ideate, Prototype, Test, and Evaluate. From there, we collaborate with organizations to evaluate and assess various aspects of their operations:

  • Capacity Building: Developing strategies to fund, build, and better support your business efforts, driving measurable outcomes.

  • Strategic Communications Optimization: Enhancing protocols, systems, and tools to foster collaboration and efficiency.

  • Thought Leadership Strategies: Identifying opportunities for external engagements to elevate organizational capacity.

At HOUR, we're committed to driving quantifiable impacts that propel your organization forward. Let's embark on this journey together, transforming challenges into opportunities for growth and success.
