Our direction is the context for PuMP, and why it works the way it does.

We hope by sharing our purpose, vision and values that you will get more insight into why PuMP exists, why it’s designed the way it is, and whether it might resonate with your organisation’s culture.

Our purpose for PuMP

PuMP guides leaders to effectively answer the questions ‘are we achieving what matters?’ and ‘how do we know?’ to transform their organisation’s performance and success.

PuMP is transformational because it helps leaders reach their goals with more speed, precision & engagement, but with less effort.

PuMP provides the only result-focused, evidence-based and improvement-driven framework for organisations to measure, align and execute their strategy.

Our vision for PuMP

PuMP empowers every leader to be results-focused, evidence-led, and improvement-driven in fulfilling their organisation’s purpose.

Three ideals will help us achieve this vision:

Loved: Everyone who uses PuMP easily engages their colleagues to implement it and make it their organisation’s formal strategic performance management approach.

Known: Every director, leader, manager, strategy & performance professional in every business, company & organisation in every sector and industry in every country in the world know of PuMP.

Proven: Everywhere PuMP is used it at least doubles the speed and size of performance improvements driven by result-focused and evidence-led improvement decisions.

Our worldview is Collaborative Creation…

We believe the world is a project where we all can bring our unique gifts together to recreate how organisations can focus on achieving the results that serve people and the planet.

Providing a framework to do this is the core purpose of PuMP.

Our values are why PuMP is what it is…

Leadership/New Organisation: We value leading and transforming our existing organisations so they benefit people, societies and the planet. This is why PuMP is focused on results-first, evidence-based and decision-driven, to support transformational leadership.

Decision/Initiation: We value taking personal responsibility for setting direction and initiating action. This is why PuMP is designed to integrate its result-oriented and evidence-based techniques so well with strategy and decision processes.

Human Dignity: We value the basic right of every human being to have respect and to have their basic needs met in a way that will allow them the opportunity to develop their potential. This is why PuMP empowers everyone’s ownership of measuring & achieving results, and is never used to judge people.

Synergy: We value the energising, creative relationship of people working together to achieve results far surpassing the sum of individual contributions. This is why PuMP is a team-based approach.

Design/Pattern/Order: We value using systems thinking to create new ways for leaders and their people to identify, monitor and have influence over the results that matter most in their organisations. This is why PuMP begins with mapping results and their interrelationships throughout the organisation.

Discovery/Insight: We value being motivated by the experience of moments of insight in a quest for truth, through patterned investigation. This is why PuMP focuses so strongly on evidence-based measures and the best analysis to uncover insights from them.

Wonder/Curiosity/Nature: We value experiencing the physical world with marvel and wonder, and to seek to learn about and explore it personally. This may have somehow inspired PuMP and those drawn to it, but it’s a value that every member of our PuMP Licensee Team shares.

Our worldview and values are derived from the MVF values methodology by Minessence Group.

Does PuMP sound like it could fit your culture?

We want you to try (and hopefully adopt) PuMP because we know it works. We know PuMP will forever transform the way you think about and do measurement, especially for strategic management and performance improvement. In a powerful way. PuMP won’t just change your KPIs; it will change the way you think about results, which results matter, and the way you feel about making a difference through those results. Does this resonate with you?
