Approach and services
PROCESSES OF CHANGE AND COLLABORATION
We contribute to constructively channel the transforming drives of public, private and civil society organizations to achieve the purposes that move them.
Part of these processes are internal change processes. They often involve complex collaborative initiatives among diverse entities.
We facilitate these processes, including the development of strategies and roadmaps.
PARTICIPATION
We methodologically design and facilitate participatory processes, both within organizations and between organizations and their stakeholders.
We deploy a wide range of tools and methodologies, distinguishing between instances of information, consultation, involvement, collaboration and empowerment.
CO-CONSTRUCTION
When provided the appropriate context, we believe in the capacity of individuals and teams to come up with solutions to the challenges they face.
We contribute to create that context from an appreciative inquiry. We seek to co-construct a shared view of the challenge, and support teamwork towards this common goal.
GROWTH OF PEOPLE AND TEAMS
We strive to build an enriching and fluid context for change to be experienced.
Throughout the process, we work for individual and collective potentials to be unleashed and interpersonal relationships to be strengthened.
When necessary, we provide capacity building services for individuals and teams, including coaching.
COMMUNICATION AND ESG CONSULTING
We offer strategic communication and applied communication services, as well as consulting in organizational management in environmental, social and governance (ESG) matters. These services complement and enhance Kaleido’s overall work.
INTEGRATED WORK
We are capable of integrating our work with the efforts of other external technical consultants to jointly drive far-reaching change.
We intertwine the valuable perspectives of the client’s staff with the expert input of these consultants, ultimately favoring change management.
DIVERSE SUBJECTS AND SECTORS
We work with a wide range of organizations, teams and individuals.
Our experience and our working methods have proven to be applicable in a variety of issues and sectors.
MOVEMENT IN HARMONY
Our name Kaleido comes from the Greek kalos –the beautiful, beauty– and eidos –form–, evoking the Aristotelian image “eideia” or ideal form that humans can reach. It reflects our confidence in the unfolding potential of people in organizations. Knowing that change is permanent, as in the kaleidoscope, we aspire that the perpetual movement of people and organizations can take place in harmony.
We are based in Chile and have worked in almost all Latin American countries and other continents, mainly in Spanish, but also in English and German.
