People and culture sit at the heart of university performance. We support institutions to understand, strengthen, and evolve their organisational culture and people practices. Together, we’ll lead change, build capability, and create supportive environments where staff and students succeed.
What happened? The Institute of Dentistry, University of Aberdeen, operated within multiple policy and regulatory constraints.
Our approach: We worked with the Institute to commit to a culture change action plan.
The outcomes: The review provided the institute with a firm basis for making positive change. The team combined all their change actions into one tracker and used it to monitor their cultural shift on a regular basis.
What happened? Traditional HR models struggled to meet modern institutional needs.
Our approach: SUMS supported rethinking HR operating models to focus on capability, agility and impact.
The outcomes: Clearer alignment between people strategy, leadership and institutional priorities.
