Why Choose The INSIDE View?

Led by Crystal D’Cunha, The INSIDE View brings real-world insights and a commitment to sustainable success. Headquartered in Niagara, Ontario, we serve clients throughout Ontario, the GTA, and the Great Lakes region, offering both in-person and virtual solutions to meet your needs.

Our Approach is Ideal for Companies Ready to:

  • Attract and retain diverse talent
  • Drive customer loyalty with enhanced experiences
  • Align employee engagement with business goals
  • Build a sustainable, adaptable growth strategy

The ELEVATE™ Framework: Five Phases to Drive Success

Phase 1: Discovery and Assessment

E – Engage with Purpose

We begin by engaging purposefully through Voice of Customer (VoC) and Voice of Employee (VoE) insights. This foundational step reveals what matters most to your stakeholders, aligning your team around a vision for growth that reflects your mission.

Phase 2: Listen and Value Diverse Perspectives

L – Listen Actively

Strategic planning starts with listening. Using real-time feedback, we uncover the needs, challenges, and goals of your customers and employees to build a strategy that is relevant and inclusive.

E – Empower Your Team

Our Inclusive Strategy Workshop fosters a culture where every voice is valued. Through Journey Mapping, we empower your team to contribute to enhanced customer and employee experiences.

V – Value Individual Contributions

Recognizing each team member’s strengths builds a culture of respect and inclusion, creating alignment with your organization’s goals and strengthening engagement.

Phase 3: Align Actions with Values

A – Align Actions with Values

We translate insights into clear, measurable KPIs, ensuring that all actions align with the core values of your organization. This alignment provides a measurable path to success that resonates across all levels of your team.

Phase 4: Transform Through Training

T – Transform Through Training

Continuous improvement requires the right tools. Our custom training options equip teams with the skills and adaptability they need to execute strategies effectively in today’s evolving markets.

Phase 5: Elevate the Experience with Coaching Support

E – Elevate the Experience

The final step is to continuously elevate your customer and employee experiences. Through optional coaching sessions, we support your team’s growth and alignment, helping sustain progress long after the strategic plan is in place.

Why ELEVATE™ Stands Out for Businesses Across Ontario and Beyond

ELEVATE™ isn’t your standard strategic plan. It’s a comprehensive roadmap that combines VoC and VoE feedback, Journey Mapping, and strategic coaching options to deliver sustainable growth. This process ensures every part of your strategy is designed for real-world success, helping you build a culture of adaptability and alignment.
