The Resilient Organisation

How do you build an organisation that can withstand change? Firm of the Future found the answer in nature. The BioBoom model translates the resilience of eight animal species into eight growth areas for your organisation.

The idea

Resilience, learned from nature

Nature has been solving complex problems for millions of years. The species that survive are not the strongest, but the most resilient: they adapt, collaborate and keep growing.

The BioBoom model brings that natural resilience to your organisation. Eight animal species represent eight areas in which you can grow, from a shared vision to supply chain collaboration.

The BioBoom model

Eight areas to grow in

Each animal embodies a strength that makes your organisation more resilient. Together they form a growth model: the BioBoom.

The bee

Shared vision

A bee colony shares one clear goal and acts as a whole. This is how you anchor a shared vision that gives everyone direction.

The seahorse

Agility

The seahorse moves effortlessly with the current. Build an organisation that bends smoothly with change.

The nautilus

Innovative strength

The nautilus grows in perfect spirals, chamber after chamber. Innovate step by step, building on what works.

The ant

Dynamic stimulation

Ants respond at lightning speed to signals from their surroundings. Keep your organisation alert and spur it into action.

The gorilla

Modern leadership

The gorilla leads with calm, presence and care for the group. Leadership that provides trust and safety.

The butterfly

Continuous change

The butterfly transforms completely and yet remains itself. Embrace change as a natural, ongoing process.

The aardvark

Socially responsible

The aardvark digs burrows that benefit the entire ecosystem. Do business with an eye for people, the environment and your surroundings.

The flamingo

Supply chain collaboration

Flamingos move as one in large groups. Collaborate across the supply chain and strengthen one another.
