It takes a village to deliver a complex therapy: your cross-functional team plus the external partners who control real-world constraints. Mind Meetings are 3-day alignment sprints that bring your therapy’s entire village into one room. We map the pathway end to end, identify key constraints, and align on a realistic plan you can run the next day.

Complex-therapy launches fail at the seams: internal silos, multi-step care pathways, and hard capacity limits in the health system. When constraints stay hidden, plans reset across handoffs—and patient access stalls.
77% of leaders report that silos between departments hinder strategy execution and innovation. When ownership is split, plans reset at handoffs and delivery breaks down at the seams.¹
Complex-therapy delivery can involve 10+ distinct practitioner roles from screening to diagnosis to monitoring. If the “village” isn’t aligned, handoffs fail and execution stalls.²
Modeled capacity suggests fewer than 2% of eligible patients could access required resources in year one for an Alzheimer’s DMT. It’s one example of how capacity constraints can collapse access.³
Ad boards and roundtables surface perspectives. Traditional consulting produces analysis and recommendations. Mind Meetings run a cross-stakeholder decision process that makes trade-offs explicit and leaves you with owners, decision rights, and a 30/60/90 you can execute.

Fast alignment, decision-grade outputs, and execution plans your team can run tomorrow. See the full breakdown.
Mind Meetings compress months of alignment into a decision-grade working session. Teams leave with explicit trade-offs, clear decision rights, and a sequenced 30/60/90 plan.
We convene internal owners and external decision-makers who control real constraints: clinicians, payers, PSP and pharmacy partners, diagnostics and imaging, operations, and patient advocates.
Most failures happen between functions and partners, not within them. We surface bottlenecks early and translate them into practical handoffs, owners, and operating cadence.
No decks that die on the SharePoint shelf. You get artifacts built for execution: pathway map, assumptions log, decision register, governance model, and an implementable action plan.
Mind Meetings help teams use the “village” to build Canada-ready commercialization and delivery. We align the right stakeholders on a shared fact base, make trade-offs explicit, and leave with named owners, clear handoffs, and a runnable 30/60/90 plan.
Translate evidence, pricing logic, and operating assumptions into a Canada-ready pathway. Align payers, clinicians, diagnostics, and delivery partners on what must be true so the plan works end-to-end.
Turn the “black box” into an end-to-end view of who does what, when, and why. We surface hidden constraints, dependencies, and failure points early, before they create rework.
Create a repeatable core model that can flex by province and region. We define minimum standards, allowable variation, and the decisions that need to be made once, not re-litigated thirteen times.
Move beyond “get funded” to “get delivered.” We align on capacity, workflow, sequencing, and monitoring requirements so patient access scales with the system’s real operating limits.
Clarify who owns which decisions across functions and partners. We leave with a decision register, named owners, escalation paths, and a governance cadence that keeps execution moving.
Translate stakeholder engagement into concrete commitments, sequencing, and artifacts. We define the asks, the evidence, and the delivery changes required so coalitions produce outcomes, not just alignment.
Mind Meetings bring the whole delivery village into one decision-grade sprint. In about 16 hours, you surface constraints, stress-test trade-offs across 10+ stakeholder types, and leave with locked decisions, named owners, and a first-wave plan.
Advisory boards typically convene one external stakeholder type at a time. Our workshops bring 10+ stakeholder types together with your team, so constraints surface early, trade-offs get tested across the ecosystem, and you avoid rework after the meeting.⁴
Getting the right people in the room is only step one. The decision process drives outcomes 6X more than extra input or analysis. We run a structured sprint so leaders decide with confidence—unlike roundtables that surface views but don’t lock decisions or owners.⁵
Complex problems don’t resolve in one pass. Mind Meetings use tight cycles to surface constraints, compare options, and converge on decisions. In about 16 hours, you leave with a first-wave plan your team can execute—unlike 2–3 hour advisory boards or roundtables.⁶
In 3 days, we mobilize the right stakeholders, turn complexity into clear choices, and translate decisions into an operating model and 30/60/90 plan your team can run.
Define the outcomes that matter, then convene the internal owners and external stakeholders who control the constraints. Everyone arrives with a shared fact base and clear roles.
In a facilitated 3-day working session, we map the pathway end to end, expose assumptions, pressure-test options, and align on an innovative strategy fit for the challenge.
We prepare the strategy for execution: named owners, clear handoffs, governance cadence, and tactical plans your team can run immediately. You leave with a sequenced plan, not a slide deck.
