Featured Whitepaper Insights
The Programme Recovery Imperative (G.R.I.P.S.)
When projects stall or drift, leaders need more than dashboards — they need a way back to delivery. G.R.I.P.S. lays out a structured recovery framework to regain control, rebuild confidence, and restore value before reputational or financial damage takes hold.
Customer Spectacles: Seeing Through Your Customer’s Eyes
This flagship whitepaper reframes transformation from the customer’s perspective. It shows how organisations can uncover blind spots, close experience gaps, and build cultures that consistently deliver what customers actually value — not just what internal metrics reward.
Account-Based Growth and the SUCCESS Framework
Growth doesn’t happen by chance. It happens through alignment. SUCCESS gives B2B teams a clear model for connecting marketing, sales, and delivery around shared outcomes — turning account plans into real, measurable growth.
SPECTRE: The Strategic Cyber & Resilience Framework
Cyber resilience isn’t just an IT problem; it’s a leadership issue. SPECTRE unites strategy, culture, and operations to help boards and executives build resilience into their organisation’s DNA — before the next disruption hits.
The DRIVERS of B2B Customer Experience
Seven proven pillars — Delivery, Relationships, Insight, Value, Ease, Recovery, and Strategic Partnership — define what separates leading B2B organisations from the rest. DRIVERS shows how to measure, strengthen, and scale the experience that keeps customers loyal.
The Trust Horizon
Trust is the ultimate leading indicator of business health. This whitepaper explores how to sense when it’s rising or fading — across customers, teams, and markets — and how leaders can rebuild it through transparency, follow-through, and shared intent.
AI in Sales and Marketing – The Future of B2B Growth
This whitepaper explores how AI is transforming sales and marketing in UK B2B and public sector organisations — from digital-first buyer journeys to revenue intelligence and alignment. It introduces Oak Consult’s OAK-ARM maturity model and GROW cadence, showing executives how to harness AI safely, align teams, and drive measurable, responsible growth.
