The Kafka Brigade’s services are rooted in leading research on public service management, leadership and problem solving. In particular we draw on Public Value (Mark H Moore), Adaptive Leadership (Ronald Heifetz), Tame/Wicked/Critical (Keith Grint), and of course action research (Lewin onwards). These theories all point to the need for public managers to engage critically in the challenges facing them. We support people to do this through a range of services:

• Kafka Button
• Kafka Coach
• Kafka Field Labs
• Kafka Films
• Kafka Research
• Kafka School
• Kafka Stocktakes
• Kafka Thermometer
