WHAT WE DO
We help large companies to apply the principles of successful entrepreneurship to crack their toughest challenges and transform their business.
We help Corporates in four ways
EXPLORE.
Explore new opportunity areas with our global community of entrepreneurs. Working with successful, real life practitioners in short, sharp and immersive sprints will help your team rapidly understand a new area of disruption, innovation or technology, and frame it in terms of potential for your business.

BREAKTHROUGH.
Crack a specific and tough challenge around growth, strategy or innovation with the fresh, impartial perspective of successful entrepreneurs. We work with you to zero down on the challenge, and the point of most impact. Through a blend of strategic thinking, entrepreneurialism and immersive experiences we deliver radical and practical solutions for your business.
SUPPORT.
Validate ideas and drive to implementation by adapting the best of start-up thinking to work within large, mature businesses. We can work with you across a spectrum from project design, to active program management, to full new venture incubation. Our entrepreneurial application of lean start-up and agile principles will accelerate time from idea to impact, and create a new model of project delivery for your business.
TRANSFORM.
Go beyond one-off problem solving to create an organization that is organically more entrepreneurial. Through a mixture of interventions including reset experiences with inspiring entrepreneurs, team development and leadership coaching, we help you build a team that thinks and acts like owners, and has the tools to tackle your biggest business problems.
The entrepreneur difference
Entrepreneurial principles are powerful, but they don’t work as a boardroom presentation. A typical engagement with OneLeap includes getting out of the building, working alongside successful entrepreneurs, and a mixture of simulations, sprints, games and role-playing.
In past engagements we have taken over an island for a corporate strategy session, carved marble tablets in Rome, dropped executives into Asian wet markets to relearn customer-centricity, rebuilt an entire supermarket overnight, and had official warnings from the South Korean coastguard for flying a pirate flag.
WHERE we fit in.
Our greatest impact is on challenges that traditional management consultancies and the “best demonstrated practice” approach do not fit.
FRESH thinking.
Clients bring us in when there is a genuine thirst for divergent perspectives, practical creativity, or an unashamedly commercial approach to innovation that comes with an owner’s perspective. Ongoing market disruption and a fast-changing, uncertain environment typically characterize our clients’ challenges.
BIG SHIFTS.
These require the business to embrace unfamiliar territory, which is often accompanied by internal change fatigue and ghosts of failed past attempts at similar challenges. There is a need to rapidly make the new vision tangible, change mindsets, and inspire and re-energize teams.
Sifted recognises us as leading innovation strategists:
“OneLeap, who count ex-Bain, McKinsey and British Government employees among their numbers, help corporates to identify and act on new opportunities. Put simply, they think that most large corporates are sitting on an untapped goldmine of entrepreneurial potential - but it goes unrealised in almost every case. Their aim is help corporates close this gap and leverage the assets, people and networks they already have.”

The Reset Sprint.
As the coronavirus pandemic comes to an end, we can “snap back” to life before, or we can seize the opportunity to act differently.
