Mott MacDonald is a global management, engineering, and development consultancy, employing 18,000 peopleacross economic and social infrastructure projects worldwide. Within this, the Strategic Advisory team—formed just over a year ago—has grown to 150 professionals across four distinct teams.

With teams forming rapidly and projects requiring seamless collaboration across different locations and time zones, professionals needed a way to quickly connect, align working styles, and build strong relationships from day one. The pace of work meant individuals often found themselves on assignments with colleagues they had never worked with before, making it crucial to have a tool that could accelerate connection, strengthen communication, and ensure high-performing teams could form quickly. As a global business, bringing together the right people at the right time was essential to solving client challenges efficiently and effectively.

 

Mindflick partnered with Mott MacDonald’s Strategic Advisory team to integrate the Mindflick platform into their approach to team building, collaboration, and professional development. By embedding the platform into daily workflows, professionals gained deeper insight into their own working styles and those of their colleagues, ensuring they could quickly adapt and build trust. This approach has become a key enabler for the Strategic Advisory team, knitting together four distinct teams and providing a framework for forming and developing teams more efficiently. With access to real-time insights, individuals can instantly understand how to best engage with colleagues, ensuring that conversations, decision-making, and teamwork are more effective. Professionals can now proactively tailor their approach to different people, improving efficiency, strengthening relationships, and ensuring they work smarter across a global organisation.

Mindflick has transformed how the Strategic Advisory team at Mott MacDonald forms and operates, creating a faster, smarter approach to collaboration. Individuals now have instant access to insights that allow them to understand and engage with colleagues more effectively, strengthening team cohesion across the business. As a result, teams align more efficiently, reducing friction and enabling them to focus on solving client challenges. This increased agility has led to greater efficiency on projects and enhanced team performance across the board.

As the Mindflick platform continues to scale across the business, Mott MacDonald is now looking at expanding its use beyond the Strategic Advisory team. With a growing focus on talent development, team formation, and client partnerships, the organisation is seeing the potential for Mindflick to play a pivotal role in shaping high-performance collaboration at scale. Beyond internal benefits, there is an exciting opportunity to take these tools into the wider infrastructure industry—driving industry-wide transformation by improving teamwork, communication, and leadership across the sector.
