For transformation consultants & advisory firms
Expand what you can deliver.
Keep your expertise at the center.
You understand your clients and the changes they need to make. Work with Gobekli to shape focused offers, deliver with support and develop tools that help your methodology stay useful as their work evolves.
Bring a client opportunity, a method you want to put into practice or expertise you could contribute to a shared engagement. We’ll identify a useful starting point and how each of us can help.
Build your practice with support behind it.
You may know exactly what a client needs, but still need help packaging the offer, preparing delivery or supporting the work afterward.
Gobekli can contribute relevant resources, joint scoping, agreed preparation and product expertise. Together, we can turn an opportunity into a clear engagement, with useful outputs and responsibilities each of us can deliver.
Bring a client opportunity.
Work with us to define the problem, shape the proposal and prepare a focused engagement. Keep your client knowledge and expertise central while we agree on the support and tools needed.
Bring your methodology.
Start with a framework, assessment or approach you already use. Explore how it could guide a workshop, a continuing client process or a future TalentSync configuration.
Bring your delivery expertise.
Explore suitable work involving facilitation, specialist input or ongoing client support. Opportunities may come from your practice, Gobekli or something we develop together.
What do you help organizations change?
The starting problem depends on your practice. Choose the area closest to the work you do.
AI & digital transformation
Help clients understand where new tools change workflows, human judgment and responsibilities. Identify what needs to happen before a promising experiment can become useful in everyday work.
Workforce & organizational transformation
Connect changes in strategy and operating models with people’s capabilities, roles and development. Help clients see where experience could be put to better use and where support is missing.
M&A & integration
Help teams understand the knowledge, relationships and dependencies they need to preserve. Explore how people from different organizations could work together and contribute beyond their current roles.
Education & learning transformation
Connect changing learner and employer needs with programs, learning experiences and evidence of progress. Help clients understand what to develop and how to keep it relevant.
Start with a piece of work the client can use.
A first engagement should help the client make a decision or move something forward.
That might mean understanding why a pilot has stalled, clarifying a difficult handoff, identifying critical knowledge or examining how a learning program connects with changing needs.
1
Define the decision.
What does the client need to understand or choose?
2
Bring the right people and evidence.
Who knows the work, who is affected and what can we examine together?
3
Leave something useful behind.
A reviewed workflow, clear responsibilities, an evidence plan or a proposed test with an owner.
4
Choose what follows.
Act on the findings, investigate further or scope an implementation where it makes sense.
A workshop is one way to do this: a focused session where people examine the situation together and decide what comes next. Interviews, a configuration exercise or a technical test may be a better starting point.
We shape the engagement around the client’s problem. Your method can guide it.
Give your methodology somewhere to keep working.
Your framework may help a client see their organization differently. Keeping that understanding useful takes continuing contributions, review and follow-through.
Gobekli is building TalentSync to connect context from existing systems with the experience and perspectives of the people doing the work. Your methodology could help shape what the system asks, how findings are organized and which decisions it supports.
| What you already use | What it could inform |
|---|---|
| Discovery questions | Guided conversations and workflow surveys |
| Framework dimensions | Profile fields, taxonomies and shared definitions |
| Assessment criteria | Evidence requirements and human review |
| Recommendations | Actions, owners and follow-up questions |
| Learning from delivery | Improvements to your method and proposed product capabilities |
The aim is a living picture of the organization: how work happens, what people can contribute and what needs attention as circumstances change.
These are configuration capabilities we’re developing with partners. We can start with a manual process or focused test, then confirm what available functionality, configuration or engineering would support the next step.
See how it could work with one client.
Illustrative manufacturing example.
A manufacturer wants to improve the handoff from quoting to production. Your discovery finds that a senior machinist informally reviews difficult jobs. A newer engineer has relevant experience, but the estimating team doesn’t know to involve them.
Your first engagement helps the team see that dependency, clarify review responsibilities and choose a change to test.
A proposed TalentSync setup could connect:
The workflow
Activities, handoffs and decisions.
Active capability
The expertise people are already using.
Latent capability
Relevant experience the organization hasn’t put to use.
Gaps
Missing coverage or capabilities needed for the next step.
People review and correct the picture. They gain recognition for their experience and clearer opportunities to contribute. The client gains a better basis for deciding how the work should change.
Your ongoing role could be to help the team review what happened, update the approach and decide where to focus next.
Build an ongoing role that earns its place.
Some clients will need help carrying the work forward. Others will want you to equip an internal lead and hand it over.
You could support either path.
Help clients act on what they learn.
Facilitate decisions about responsibilities, capability gaps, development and collaboration.
Keep the approach useful.
Review changes in the work and adjust agreed questions, templates or configurations.
Develop internal ownership.
Help the client maintain the process and recognize when more specialist support would be useful.
These can become paid services with their own scope, workload and review points. A continuing relationship should be supported by the value of the work.
Help shape what becomes reusable.
Client engagements can reveal needs that are difficult to see from product design alone.
Bring us what your method uncovered, where information was missing and what helped the client move forward. Together, we can distinguish between a client-specific requirement, a useful resource and a potential product improvement.
Your existing methodology remains yours unless we agree otherwise. When we develop something together, we define how it can be used, maintained and reused.
Resources for your next client conversation.
Your client wants AI. What should you ask first?
Six questions to turn a broad request into a clearer problem and a useful next step.
Scope your first transformation workshop.
Define the decision, participants, preparation and outputs that make the engagement worthwhile.
Design useful ongoing support.
Explore how to carry findings forward with clear responsibilities, review points and a practical handover.
A few practical questions.
Do I need a client ready to buy?
No. A concrete method or specialist contribution can start the conversation. For joint delivery, we focus on opportunities with a defined need, access to the right people and a path to funding.
Do I have to use Gobekli’s workshops?
No. We can use your approach, a relevant Gobekli workshop or a combination. We agree on the method and materials that fit the engagement.
How do we earn from work together?
We agree compensation for the contribution each party takes on. That may include origination, preparation, delivery, development or ongoing services. Fees and payment milestones are established before work begins.
Can Gobekli introduce client opportunities?
Yes, where there’s a fit between the client’s needs, your expertise and available capacity. Each assignment requires agreement and client approval; joining the partnership conversation does not guarantee leads.
Is there a fee to get started?
The initial conversation is not a paid membership. Substantial preparation, training, configuration or development is scoped as part of a client engagement or a separately agreed investment.
What would onboarding involve?
We review the delivery plan and a sample output or rehearsal, then agree checkpoints for the first engagement. As we learn how we work together, we can define where you can lead independently and where support is useful.
What can I configure or administer today?
We review current capabilities before proposing a setup. Any administration role depends on available functionality and client authorization. We distinguish what can be supported now from what requires manual work or development.
What’s the next opportunity you want to pursue?
Bring one client challenge, a method you want to develop or a contribution you could make.
Let’s identify a useful first engagement, the support it needs and what we could build from there.
