Holt Transition Strategies

We at Holt Transition Strategies believe that change presents an opportunity for innovation, creativity and improvement. As internal and external environments change at lightning speeds, organizations often need to reshape their processes, re-direct their resources and adapt their strategies in order to flourish.

Managing change requires new models of organizing and inclusion of internal and external perspectives to understand and embrace the shifting paradigms of transition. By focusing on advocacy, policy, and acting as a change agent, Holt Transition Strategies is committed to shepherding organizations through transformation by assessing the current culture, identifying strategies that promote change, and preparing and action plan for implementation to improve their competitiveness in a rapidly changing world.

Paramount to managing change is the inclusion of diverse stakeholders, especially women. Women evaluate circumstances from a different lens and bring a unique set of problem-solving skills and leadership to situations. They are adaptable and creative in problem-solving transitions.

What we do:

  • Assist in identifying and solidifying future direction for your organization.
  • Prepare a transition plan that modifies the business processes, use of resources, budget allocation, or other operations needed to attain successful transformation.
  • Build diversity and inclusion to insure varied perspectives for comprehensive decision-making.
  • Advocate for policy on women’s empowerment and gender equity.
