Welcome to our new website!
Leap Company is an organisational development consultancy. We help boards, directors and managers achieve what their organisation sets out to do. We get to the heart of what is really going on, develop the human side of the organisation and organise the work so that it runs smoothly. Innovative tools and solutions that hold up in practice amplify that effect.
At the centre are the organisation’s goals. Around them are four capabilities that determine whether you reach those goals, and three conditions that help or get in the way. Leadership connects the whole. Point at a part to read what it means.
Read how the model worksOrganisational and development goalsWhat the organisation wants to achieve, and the ways in which it wants to keep developing so that it stays successful in the future. Every other part serves these goals.
CultureThe shared norms, values and unwritten rules that determine how people behave and treat each other. A condition: culture can help or hold back development.
StructureHow the work is organised: roles, mandates, meetings and processes. It determines who decides what, and how work is divided and coordinated. A condition: structure can help or hold back development.
TechnologyThe systems and tools people work with, and how willing and able they are to use them. A condition: technology can help or hold back development.
Shared visionThe ability to develop a shared picture of the desired future together, and to act on it out of commitment.
Systems thinkingThe ability to zoom out and see the organisation as a coherent whole. To look beyond day-to-day practice and separate issues, recognise recurring patterns and understand how teams, departments and the organisations they work with affect each other.
Team learning & collaborationThe ability to learn together, make use of knowledge and keep improving the work.
CraftsmanshipThe knowledge, skills and professional qualities of people, and the ability to keep developing them.
LeadershipGiving direction towards the goals and creating the conditions for development. Leadership connects the goals with the four domains and influences the conditions.
Do you recognise challenges in the way people work together, how the work is organised, how leadership is given or how technology is used? Explore the four themes and find out what we can do for you there.
Problems are often connected. What looks like a culture problem at first sight may also have to do with unclear responsibilities, for example. We help you get to the bottom of how a problem hangs together and get it moving in a targeted way.
How do you develop the professional culture that suits your organisation?
Behaviour doesn’t come about separately from its surroundings. If people hold back, that may be because responsibilities are unclear, decisions keep being reversed or there is little room to make mistakes. That is why we also look at and .
How do you organise things so that people can do their work well and your goals are met?
A lack of clarity or progress isn’t necessarily down to the structure alone. Behaviour, leadership or systems can also stop the work from running well. That is why we also look at , and .
How do you develop leadership that moves both people and the organisation forward?
Leadership doesn’t stand apart from the organisation. Unclear mandates, conflicting goals or ingrained patterns of behaviour can get in the way of effective leadership. That is why we also look at and .
How do you use technology to make the work smarter and simpler?
Technology alone doesn’t solve everything. If processes are unclear, people aren’t sufficiently involved or responsibilities aren’t clear, you automate the confusion. That is why we also look at , and .
That is why we always look at all four, even when you come to us with just one question. How we work
We don’t turn up with a ready-made solution. First we want to be clear about what you want to achieve and what is standing in the way. That time pays for itself twice over: once we know, we pull the right levers from the start.
We map out the goals you are working towards and check whether they are concrete enough. Then we look at your challenges in that light.
We fill in the picture with perspectives from across your department or organisation. Our own tools gather them quickly and easily.
Soon after, we talk you through the results and give you concrete advice on how to tackle the challenge: through culture, structure, leadership or technology. Or, and that is where the real strength lies, a combination.
We put the advice into practice together with you. We organise what is needed, support the people who take it on and stay involved until it sticks in the day-to-day work. You take over more and more yourselves.
Who decides what? And is that equally clear to everyone?
With the Governance app you map out roles, responsibilities and decision-making powers together. You discover where expectations differ and where agreements are needed to organise the work better.
About GovernanceWhat does your organisation need to reach its goals and keep developing?
With Leapshift you discover how the different parts of your organisation reinforce or hold each other back. The model shows where the development opportunities are, and helps you work purposefully towards an organisation that keeps learning and developing.

Working with Leap Company set lasting change in motion. Thanks to this programme we are better able to support our leaders, which adds to the quality of our education and helps us achieve our mission.
Maarten thinks, questions and provokes to help you find better solutions. Like no one else, he gets you to spot unexpected crossroads and choose a direction. He does it in language that brings people with him, and above all with stories and examples, so that you really see it. He lives innovation and leads by example. For the development of our commercial Business Innovation programme, that was a real inspiration to keep improving our education and our teaching.
Change is a given. We believe the difference lies in an organisation’s ability to keep developing, so that it can handle today’s challenges, and tomorrow’s.
We each bring our own knowledge, experience and perspective. We love untangling complex issues, asking the critical follow-up question and discovering together with people what is possible. We are sharp on content, committed to the people and not afraid to challenge ourselves or each other.
We take our work seriously, and ourselves a little less so. Development is a matter of trial and error. And if someone slips? Then we laugh together, help each other up and take the next leap.

We start with a ninety-minute conversation at your offices. We want to hear what you want to achieve and what is getting in the way, and we keep asking until we understand. Afterwards you receive a report: what we discussed, what struck us, and a proposal for a first step.
We like to think along with whoever is responsible for the challenge.
If all you are looking for is a quote for a solution that has already been decided, we are probably not the right partner for you.
Call or email us directly. Whoever picks up first.
