Delivering change is complex but the way we talk about it doesn’t have to be.

At Hummingbird, we understand that change is complex. To be successful, we need people to work together towards common goals. Clear information is needed to explain why change needs to happen. What the change will be. And how it impacts the people involved. Talk to us about how we can help get everyone on the same page.

Hummingbird is here to help you drive the change your business needs to achieve your outcomes. Communicating throughout your change journey to a broad audience with stunning results.

Hummingbird has a fresh approach to helping people get it and work with it. We help bring to life what's important to your organisation.

Our Services

  • Cut through complex information

    Hummingbird will help your organisation create a clear vision, strategy and set of outcomes. No more hiding in documents that are read once and then forgotten.

  • Maximise your design investment

    Good design expires. Doing it too early risks wasted effort, as the design is revalidated and redone when solutions and vendors are selected. Hummingbird will help you maximise your design investment.

  • Get everyone talking the same language

    Getting results requires people working as a team. With different perspectives, expertise and things we need to achieve. Hummingbird helps teams work together by getting everyone talking the same language.

  • Develop your own people

    Hummingbird recognises that business continues long after the consultants leave. Our goal is to leave you with the tools and knowledge that your team needs to continue your design and change journey.

Who we work with.

What they say.

  • Kim took complex and detailed information that was extremely difficult to explain and turned it into easy-to-follow diagrammatic illustrations that allowed us to quickly share challenging concepts with others. This meant we could increase the pace of our project as the board had confidence that it was on track.

  • Kim was able to take this massive image of words and create what I call a masterpiece with a powerful message in a visual content. This piece was the centre of my presentation back in 2019 called 'We speak, you listen' with an audience of 130 government workers who came from a range of places e.g. Jacinda Ardern's personal team, parliament policy and decision makers, supreme court and district court judges, Corrections, Oranga Tamariki and many more. The image truly had the wow factor and spoke to the words I wanted to use to showcase to this specific and targeted audience.

  • Kim has real talent for understanding complexity, distilling key themes and visually representing these to help people quickly and easily understand concepts and context. She has mastery in the art of visual story telling which is a powerful skill to have in. increasingly complex business environments. Vision, outcome, current state or strategic concept, Kim can bring it to life in ways that help people connect with, and understand it.

  • I have worked with Kim in different capacities over the years and she is such a unique talent. Kim has the amazing ability to ask the right questions and create clarity where none existed before. Not only are her analysis and facilitation skills top rate, her outstanding point of difference is her ability to take complex ideas, whole business concepts, and strategies and create a single page illustration that tells a story and be can be absorbed in a moment by all. I rate Kim very highly.
