Business challenge that must be fixed?
Make difficult decisions in days
Even the best teams get distracted. Urgent issues stay unfixed as the clock ticks. We help teams regain control with our facilitated Decision Sprint process, it's fast and effective.
Our facilitators and experts will help you address complex business challenges and it'll takes days, not months.
We've combined Google’s Design Sprint, lean techniques, and 100 years' business experience to create a unique improvement tool.
At the heart is a face-to-face facilitated Decision Sprint that lasts between 1 and 3 days.
"We achieved more in a day than we'd normally manage in a month."
To prepare the Sprint we work with you to frame the challenge, agree objectives, and draft an agenda.
The 3 founders of Maverick Spark manage this stage.
Between us we have over 100 years' practical management, consulting, and improvement experience in the public and private sectors.
This means we can assess your situation quickly and agree the best approach with you.
During the workshop our facilitator guides your team through the process and external experts bring fresh perspectives to spark innovative solutions.
This builds on your team's existing knowledge and creates a distraction-free space for discussion, ideation, and decision-making.
The outcome of the Sprint can be a prioritised list of actions, a project plan, a new product or whatever you need to make rapid progress.
Each Decision Sprint is customised and we can address just about any issue. With a minimal time commitment and fixed price packages from £9,000 it's a cost-effective and low-risk way to tackle high-stakes challenges.
High impact and low risk
"Working together without distractions was very effective."
Expert facilitation and a distraction-free environment enables your team to achieve significant outcomes with minimal disruption. We won't recycle old solutions, we'll help you create new ones. You get an instant boost for a fixed price and when we've finished, we'll leave.
- Unique process with a stellar pedigree.

We designed the process to be fast and flexible so we can address any issue in any situation.
In the Analyse phase of a project our co-founders assess the complexity of the challenge you're facing and the outcomes that you want. This dictates the number of days we'd need for the face-to-face Decision Sprint.
It's usually 1, 2 or 3 days for process and people challenges but for new products and services we can extend to 5 days to include prototyping and user testing.
We offer 3 tiers that allow you to use external subject matter experts in the most useful way:
- Clarity – Facilitated Sprint. No external experts needed.
- Insight – Facilitated Sprint + remote interviews with external expert(s).
- Expert – Facilitated Sprint + external expert(s) in the room.
Several days after the Decision Sprint we hold a reflective debrief to discuss what happened during the Sprint, discuss the agreed next steps and formally hand the plan to your team.
