Welcome!
Macro Thinking Incorporated is a consulting
and education company founded in 1988. Our core areas of expertise include
Organizational Alignment, Consensus-Based Planning and Complex Group-Decision
Support. Since our inception we have specialized in the design and facilitation
of face-to-face and web-based virtual meetings applying GDSS (Group Decision
Support System) technology to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of
group consensus work. Our methodology is called CollaborWriting.
CollaborWriting is a synergy of 3 key elements:
- 1) Experienced
Facilitation - With
over 16 years field experience in traditional and technology based
methods we have a track record of success.
|
- 2) Innovative
Processes - Refined
over years of real-world application our processes are modular
and scalable for work with organizations ranging in size from
Fortune 50 to Start-Up.
|
- 3) A
Proven Technology For Collaboration
- A significant foundation for our work is the use of web-based
GDSS groupware technology that dramatically improves the speed
and outcomes of collaborative efforts.

We tend to attract clients who are dealing
with complex issues that require collaboration between passionate stakeholders.
In global industries like Banking, Health Care and Technology clients
like Merrill Lynch, Deutsche Bank, GlaxoSmithKline and NCQA use us for
strategic planning or to 'jump-start' a leadership transition or initiatives
requiring change management practices.
The heart of our practice is delivering CollaborWriting-Planning
sessions.
These
sessions range in length between ½ - 4 days, involve up to 40 participants,
are face-to-face or delivered virtually to geographically dispersed groups
anywhere in the world. For leaders seeking to align larger organizations
these programs are often delivered in a series or 'cascade' of thematically
dovetailed sessions leading to detailed implementation planning involving/investing
as many as 200+ key managers.
On average, 75% of our business is with repeat customers. This is because
CollaborWriting consistently delivers successful outcomes. The proof is
in the live and anonymous feedback we collect at the end of each session.
If you look nowhere else on this site, check out Client
Feedback to fully appreciate the power of our work. We can't make
this stuff up!
Our consulting philosophy is 'facilitation
centric'. Rather than prescribing solutions,
our commitment is to ‘Invest The Organization' by unlocking the awesome
power of your own people as they invent and roadmap their destiny together.
As such, we deliver results in a fraction of the time and at substantially
lower cost than more traditional consulting approaches. For those organizations
with ongoing needs we have training/mentoring programs to bring these
techniques in-house.
We invite you to enjoy this site as an introduction
to CollaborWriting. Should you wish to pursue a more detailed conversation
relating to your own needs or set up a web-based orientation please contact
us. We look forward to meeting you!
