Six disciplines. One embedded team. One number to call.

The monthly operating loopData → Decision → Action → Measure

We don't hand you a report. We run the loop.

Advisory is a cadence, not a deliverable. Every month the same embedded team turns your data into focused action — and measures the change back in.

Your embedded team reviews the latest behavioural and HR data — what's really moving across engagement, retention and performance.

October Advisory · FAQ

Questions, answered.

  • What is October Advisory?+

    October Advisory is the execution layer of October — an embedded, multidisciplinary team of psychologists, strategists and data scientists who turn your organizational data into the few moves that matter, leadership action and measurable performance change. It's the rigour of a strategy firm, run continuously inside your platform.

  • Who is on the embedded team?+

    Every client gets a dedicated team of psychologists, strategy consultants and data scientists who learn your data and your context. They run a monthly cadence — reviewing the latest signal, setting the strategy and agreeing the next focused actions — so momentum never stalls.

  • How is Advisory different from traditional consulting?+

    Traditional consulting delivers a deck and leaves. Advisory is embedded in your live data and stays accountable for the outcome — translating signal into a small number of focused interventions and owning them end-to-end, rather than handing over a long list of generic recommendations.

  • What kind of ROI does Advisory deliver?+

    Advisory is measured at around 4× ROI across customer cohorts, driven by lower unwanted churn (10–30%), productivity gains from focused interventions, and more effective leadership. You can size the year-one value to your own team with the ROI calculator on this page.

  • Does Advisory support off-platform programmes?+

    Yes. When the moment calls for it, the same team that knows your data delivers in-person workshops, S189 and restructuring support, and EAP and crisis response — so the strategy and the hands-on delivery stay joined up.
