The central question we at NOBL (pronounced no-bell) exist to answer is “How do you get a lot of people to work together, in a new way?” Meaning, we focus foremost on shared behaviors and behavior change at scale. Therefore, our work entails a lot of active coaching and facilitation. Our days are spent creating spaces for leaders to discuss how they work and how to win in their market, helping their teams design new processes and rituals, and/or then providing feedback as they test and learn their way into higher levels of performance. Unlike our traditional consulting peers, we don’t spend much time designing and delivering artifacts or plans. This includes big, formal change communications. We believe leaders need to clearly communicate context and requirements, but evidence shows that loud, shiny pronouncements and change slogans often increase change resistance and distract from time spent focused on behaviors.
If you approach organizational change foremost as a branding or PR challenge, we aren’t a fit. Additionally, if you prefer to architect a grand design for change and then walk away, we are also not a fit. We love the messy part of change, when folks need the most help to trial and adopt new behaviors, while extinguishing old habits and norms.
If you’re still with us, do explore our perspective and model for organizational change.
NOBL was founded in 2014 and today we are growing, doubling in size since 2020, and we intend to continue growing. We believe that this moment in time represents a global reckoning with the meaning of work and how work is done; and we believe we have a role to play, particularly in helping more folks inside organizations play a direct role in shaping how they work. As we grow, we are just as susceptible to growing pains as other companies, and joining NOBL at this moment means joining with a willingness to help us build better internal systems and to continue improving how we serve our clients.
