Social return,
alongside advisory work.

TKD advisory's advisory work is for organisations that can invest in strategic capacity. Not every purpose-driven person or organisation is in that position yet — so alongside client work, TKD advisory puts part of its capacity directly back into the sector: through free First Principles Thinking workshops, and pro bono advisory hours for organisations that need support in small quantities.

The Workshop

First Principles Thinking is the method TKD advisory uses in every advisory engagement — stripping a problem back to what's actually true, before coming up with a solution. It shouldn't only be available to organisations that can afford a full engagement. So a few times a year, TKD advisory runs a free 90-minute introduction session for students and aspiring or early-stage social entrepreneurs.

Who it's for

Students exploring social impact, entrepreneurship, or public policy — and early-stage or aspiring social entrepreneurs who are still finding the best solution to their challenge.

What it is

What it isn't

This is an introduction, not a working session. If you're already running an organisation and want to work through a live challenge, start a conversation.

Upcoming sessions — TKD advisory aspires to run the workshop quarterly. Get in touch to express your interest.

Pro Bono Advisory

Every paid engagement TKD advisory commissions generates pro bono hours, made available to purpose-driven organisations for a specific, bounded question — using the same First Principles Thinking approach applied in paid work.

Who it's for

Purpose-driven organisations — registered non-profits, charities, and social enterprises — with a specific strategic question they can't yet resource through a paid engagement. Pro bono hours aren't a substitute for organisations that could reasonably budget for advisory support.

What it is

What it isn't

Pro bono hours are for a defined question, not an open-ended engagement. If your organisation is ready for a fuller process, start a conversation about advisory options that fit your budget.

Currently available

There are currently 10 hours available.

Hours are added whenever TKD advisory commissions new paid work, and drawn down as pro bono requests are completed. Get in touch to enquire about availability.

Interested in either offer? Whether it's the next workshop or pro bono availability, get in touch and TKD advisory will let you know what's currently possible.
