Organizational change delivered

WHO WE ARE

Quartz Associates is a premium and practical consultancy that helps you to deliver value through organizational and
operational change.

Our founders, Stephen Heidari-Robinson and Suzanne Heywood, set up Quartz to fill a gap in the market: to help companies deliver change at scale, not just design it.

Stephen and Suzanne wrote the standard text book on delivering organizational change for Harvard Business Review.

Headquartered in the UK, Quartz works in Europe, the US and Middle East.

We work across all industries, and have particular experience in technology/ digital, and companies with distributed field forces (e.g., energy/ utilities/ industrial services).

Our associate model means that we carefully select consultants with the right experience and maturity to help you.

Reorg: How to Get it Right

A Practical Guide in Five Steps Most executives will lead or be a part of a reorganization effort (a reorg) at some point in their careers. And with good reason–reorgs are one of the best ways for companies to unlock latent value, especially in a changing business environment. But less than 1 in 6 delivers everything it is supposed to in the planned time. Our book provides advice on how to make yours completely successful based on over 15 years of success and extensive research.
