Pathfinder
A workshop approach designed to set the direction of your digital strategy.
Setting your strategic direction
Pathfinder has been specifically designed as an investment from CTI Digital for ambitious executives and decision-makers in large and growing organisations.
Each program and project we undertake is completely bespoke to the specific needs of our clients. We use Pathfinder to set the direction at the beginning of our consultative process, before anybody sets out towards new products or platforms.
“By systematically focusing on eliminating friction and de-risking organizational change, CTI has helped us shape a strategic view of the future, providing a phased roadmap to seamlessly transition Perch Group from where we are today to its future Vision.”
— Darren Wilson, Transformation Director, Perch Group
“Rather than jumping straight to selling technology, they took the time through their Pathfinder process to deeply understand exactly what we were aiming to achieve as
a business.”— Mitul Sudra, Chief Technical Officer, F7 & Partners
