Who We Are
A strategic business and sustainability consultancy working at the intersection of commercial, social, and sustainable development.
Issues, events and rapidly changing stakeholder expectations are increasingly challenging organisations’ relevance and licence to operate. They can also be a catalyst for positive change.
Established organisations are pivoting from what they do to why they exist, questioning where to best contribute in society and how to harness their assets to transition to a more sustainable and resilient business model which creates greater value.
New purpose-led disruptive businesses challenging the status quo are looking for ways to bring ideas and social innovations to life and scale in a responsible and inclusive way.
We help existing and new organisations redefine their role and relevance in society, and build a more differentiated, sustainable and impactful business.
Our purpose
To help brands and organisations achieve inclusive sustainable growth.
Our belief
‘Business as usual’ is currently unsustainable and a wasted opportunity.
Our philosophy
Challenge the norm, find your role, lead the change.
What We Do
We help organisations strengthen purpose, build a more sustainable business model for greater resilience and differentiation, and create a governance framework for accountability
Our modular approach is designed to inject new thinking, skills and expertise to help organisations successfully develop and execute strategy at any stage of their journey. Our Purpose, Strategy and Governance framework helps guide thinking and decision making to achieve short and longer-term outcomes.

Sector-wide environmental materiality assessment and sustainability roadmap
We had the right team for this project – the research team bringing deep environmental impact expertise and rigour combined with Helena’s strategic perspective – to generate and translate the findings and trends into the commercial, systemic and board room agendas to ensure they landed well with senior stakeholders. Throughout the two-and-a-half year project, Helena helped cut through the complexity of the research for our senior leaders and really drill down to the messaging that we need to give to investors and other stakeholders across the sustainability agenda.

Little Blue Research worked with A Bird’s Eye View throughout the 18-month project. This included helping conduct stakeholder research and frame key findings and critical impacts to address. Helena provided strategic guidance and valuable insights to the project helping to build goals and next steps for the project steering group to consider. Her industry experience helped to take the outputs of the assessment further and provided the support needed to develop an overarching set of shorter-term and longer-term actions for the US and Canadian B2B events sector to take forward. We look forward to working with Helena and ABEV in the future.

Sustainability roadmap to further embed strategy and accelerate organisational change
A Bird’s Eye View has provided invaluable support in the strategic refresh of our sustainability framework.
ABEV was particularly responsive in conducting a review of our framework to assess its future readiness, links to our core business model and how we can further embed our strategy. As part of this work, Helena assessed the maturity of our framework, and in doing so, suggested a roadmap for how we could further enhance our integrated plan in the context of organisational change.
We particularly valued ABEV’s ability to interpret our needs swiftly, whilst always keeping the customer and our purpose at the heart of all deliverables – this ensured high quality and focused outcomes.
Helena’s wealth of experience and knowledge, along with her appetite for supporting organisations in achieving sustainable growth, is a winning combination that ensures outputs of the highest standard.
