You can make

better

Overlap collaborates with organizations on strategy, organizational transformation, engagement and facilitation projects that build capacity for more ideas, new thinking and creative cultures—creating better outcomes that are deeply empathetic, richly human and solutions focused.

What we’re about

We use evidence, not assumptions.

Our approach is rooted in design thinking—an empathy-fuelled, iterative and collaborative process that involves co-designing alongside leaders, staff and interest holders.

We believe in the possible.

Practical optimism is required to make change happen. We believe better is possible because we've seen it happen over and over.

You have extraordinary potential.

Humans are pretty cool and if we allow ourselves to explore problems, new ideas and solutions with empathy and creativity—we can unlock potential to make things better.
