Connection. Clarity. Creation.
Bringing light to your organization’s next stage of growth and evolution.
“Often the decisive turn is preceded by an apparent emphasizing of and raising to their extreme of things which seem the very denial, the most uncompromising opposite of the new principle and the new creation.”
~ Sri Aurobindo
How Ellara Group can support you
Your team and your organization’s processes are the means by which your mission comes into the world.
Our work is to support you in creating spaces for the voices of those who are creating your work to be heard, for you to re-connect with each other and the purpose of your work. And from here to invite the wisdom about the limits and opportunities that need to be explored to move into the next stage of evolution of your work.
From there, we work with you to create the plans and systems that bring your work into the world, in its fullest form possible.
You are doing work that the world needs: creating new ways for humanity to live and be together, to care for each other and the Earth.
Your work is based on the knowledge that we are all one, and as such are all equally valuable, equally necessary to be included in the creation and flourishing of new systems. Rooted in this truth, your work is inherently sustainable and necessary for the world.
Bringing this truth into being requires deep and comprehensive alignment of vision people and processes.
How we work together
Strategy Development
Returning to “why” we do the work we do, we listen to the voices of those that make up your organisation. Through facilitated group sessions we create the plans and strategies to bring into being the possibilities for evolution that are held in your team’s wisdom.
Operational Planning
Together we review and refine your financial, operational, human resources, communications systems so they support the actualization of your mission.
Project/Programme Management
Budgeting and Financial Oversight
We create systems to implement projects and programmees by clarifying budgets, timelines, accountability, responsibilities and lines of communication.
To give you a clear idea of your financial position and where you are headed, we create the systems and processes to track, project and report on your organisation’s financial progress.
