The big story

Our commitment to supporting Indigenous digital outcomes

In our modern digital era, digital transformation is a driving force behind the evolution and progress of various markets, in both the public and private sectors. Private-sector consultancies, particularly those focused on digital transformation, play a pivotal role in shaping this evolution.

The collaboration between Button, a prominent impact-oriented Digital Transformation consultancy and Takoda Consulting, an Indigenous, Women-owned service consultancy, presents an innovative approach to supporting Indigenous communities.

For Button, this is a journey of listening, learning, and understanding.

What We’re Reading: Clear Thinking: Turning Ordinary Moments into Extraordinary Results

Few things will change your trajectory in life or business as much as learning to think clearly. Yet few of us recognize opportunities to think in the first place.

You might believe you’re thinking clearly in the moments that matter most. But in all likelihood, when the pressure is on, you won’t be thinking at all. And your subsequent actions will inevitably move you further from the results you ultimately seek—love, belonging, success, wealth, and victory. According to Farnam Street founder Shane Parrish, we must get better at recognizing these opportunities for what they are, and deploying our cognitive ability in order to achieve the life we want.
