Making Sense, Naturally

with thoughtful urgency.

Bridging traditional advice with necessary disruption to catalyze what needs to emerge.

The Practice

A Note from Brad Rendle

Nature-Inspired Strategy for Complex Times

There are moments when the path forward feels less like a straight line and more like a river, sometimes flowing with effortless clarity, sometimes interrupted by forces that demand we stop, reassess, and find a new way through.

That tension is not a problem to be solved. It is the nature of things.

The Holism Group emerged from that understanding, and from working alongside founders, CEOs, boards and leadership teams through terrain that demands more than conventional thinking and action.

What I have come to believe, deeply, is that the most effective leaders are those who can hold two things at once: rigorous strategic thinking and a more intuitive, human kind of sense-making.

Brad's Full Profile

I call this Business Sense™.

The Holism Group brings these together. Drawing on the wisdom of natural systems, I work at the intersection of strategy, human dynamics, and the wider forces shaping our world, helping create conditions where people, organizations, and the systems they inhabit can genuinely thrive.

Not performative certainty, but thoughtful urgency.

If you are leading through complexity and feel the pull toward something more integrated, in your strategy, your organization, your own thinking, I would welcome the conversation.
