How can we help?

10 ways we modernise business minds.

If you want to think like a start-up and act like a start-up then it's time to rip up the old business rule book and upgrade your business 'operating system'. Organa has expertise in the following areas.

1. Product Excellence

Whether you’re new to Product Management or well along the curve, we’ll assess your teams and build custom training to maximise your PM skills.

2. Becoming Agile

The first step to get your business ready for change. We help you break the shackles of restrictive processes and structures holding your business back.

3. Advanced Agile

Once you’ve broken some of the restraints of your business, it’s time to fully immerse your teams in agile practice and enable greater value flows.

4. Organisational Design

By helping your business to become a living thing and not just a machine, we show you how to restructure to fulfil your purpose and make a difference.

5. Adaptive Leadership

In an increasingly uncertain world, your key decision makers need adaptive skills to respond to rapidly changing marketplaces and competitive threats.

6. Culture Change

We bring psychology, evolutionary science, systems design and an understanding of true motivations to drive culture change organisation-wide.

7. Design Thinking

Learn how to place people at the heart of both sides of the value equation. Design thinking  will change how your organisation approaches any problem.

8. Individual Coaching

Individual empowerment is the bedrock of successful change. Aligned around a purpose, with a common mindset, we help  people uncover their superpowers.

9. Team Coaching

We help you create healthy and high performing teams in your business to innovate, be productive, have fun and deliver products that customers love.

10. Certified Courses

Train and certify teams and individuals in a range of skills, frameworks and mindsets. Our courses are well suited for technology or business teams.

About Us

Don’t hire consultants.
Engage experts.

Organa is here to change the world, one business at a time - starting with our own. We’re building the business we dreamed of when stuck in hierarchical organisations. Our experts understand the world of business inside-out, so looking at things from a fresh perspective comes naturally to us.

The way we think

Glimpse at the way our minds work to modernise yours.

Organisations are organisms

Think of business as a living thing, like a forest. Mindset lies deep in the roots. People are seeds. Products are animals, roaming freely.

Empower everyone

People equipped with autonomy, mastery and purpose can achieve new levels of personal fulfilment that naturally flow into business productivity. This is modern or agile leadership.

Get aligned on purpose

Purpose drives business with intent and clear direction. When people are aligned around a clear purpose, your business gains new leverage.

Outcomes over outputs

Product management is about outcomes. Don’t just make things, make things happen. Focus on change and impact over raw productivity. Plan for the user, not the journey.

Small teams sort big problems

In this age, scale matters more than size. We love it when a traditional business throws out its rule book and gives power to its people.

Upgrade your ‘OS’

The most powerful capability in a business is its mindset. Some are still running the old operating system. New thinking disrupts the disrupters.

Don’t buy silver bullets

They might stop a werewolf, but they won’t restart your business. There’s no quick, easy fix to change. Don’t believe any agile consultants that tell you otherwise.

Hire experts not consultants

We don’t believe in long workshop sessions, lengthy proposals, proprietary tools and other extractive methods typical with consultants. We give you what you need fast & straight.

Put us out of a job

We encourage businesses to be self-sustaining. Once we’ve co-designed your business so it thinks for itself, drives meaningful outcomes and change, our work is done.

What we got from Product Space (now Organa) was succinct, straight-to-the-point and easy to understand, just what we wanted. We'll work with them again for sure.

Darryl Wright you are a Zen Master! Your knowledge and approach to training is out of this world. Very few trainers impress me the way you do.

“Brendan made me a better leader”

I've found Brendan to be incredibly knowledgeable on our products, their users, and the markets they move in. He is farsighted, even visionary, always on the lookout for strategic opportunities, and able to condense complex information into easily digestible form.

Antonio Merker

“Superpowers in product manager coaching”

I cannot speak highly enough of Organa (formerly Product Space) for any Product Manager who doesn’t want to settle for being anything less than a “great” PM. I look forward to working with these two amazing women very soon

“Navigated the ups and downs of our startup”

Once I had the pleasure to work with Brendon, his empathy, transparency and big heart really helped us navigate the ups and downs of running a startup and I was impressed with how he never lost sight of the individual within a group.

Elise Lilliehöök
Deputy CEO, 29k

“Hiring product talent”

We added product capability to our business and Organa (né Product Space) helped by bringing product and agile thinking to the design of a new role, and the interview process itself. Their guidance was spot on and we really enjoyed how easy they were to work with.

Carlie Newbold

Sandra knows product management intimately so she hit the ground running and developed everything we needed without fuss and with exceptional strategic insight.
