R-Purpose is a High-Impact Comprehensive Pathway to Help You Take Instability and Turn it Into Confidence and Growth

 
Provision’s R-Purpose model was developed specifically for food and beverage businesses dealing with the impacts of COVID-19 to improve performance, address risks, lower costs of production and elevate brand by embedding purpose, sustainability, circularity and resiliency at the heart of their business.



R-Purpose is a Five-Step Model


Growth Through Purpose, Sustainability & Circularity

1. WHY

Our cycle begins with WHY, defining why your food or beverage company exists beyond profit, what it is your company stands for and why anyone else should care.

2. ENROLMENT

Your staff do not want to come to work every day just to make your product. They want to feel they are contributing to something bigger than themselves. They want to know your WHY and your VISION for the future, so they can feel they are part of it, have some accountability to it and be inspired and motivated by it.

3. ACTIVATION PLANNING

Once your teams feel they are engaged in something that really matters to them, we begin the process of setting Objectives, Key Results (OKRs) and supporting Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that are going to deliver on your vision and support your stated purpose.

4. DATA-DRIVEN STORYTELLING

Your WHY gives you a new story to tell: one that is grounded in something bigger than your product or brand and which makes you more emotionally compelling to a larger audience. We help you tell this new story in a way that will differentiate you in a highly competitive marketplace, enabling you to capture new market opportunities, improve market share and build customer loyalty.

5. ACTIVATE & INSPIRE

Your WHY is what you stand for and what others can count on you for.  Once you embrace it, you need to walk the talk through data and authenticity. Otherwise it will come across as inauthentic marketing, dishearten your staff, disappoint customers and damage your business reputation.

"Working with Provision Coalition was a dream for this solopreneur. They had such a brilliant way of mining the ideas and vision I had for Taste Detours and collating it all into a clear strategy for the future. Their kindness, genuine interest and support were evident from the very first call to the wrap-up report. This working relationship was invaluable to me, and I'm eager to call on them every now and then as I move forward with a new and improved company."

Lynn Broughton
Founder, Taste Detours

Provision was instrumental in teaching us how to run a business that aligns our long term sustainability and profit-oriented goals with our desire to live through our purpose in everything we do. Not only did Provision challenge the perception that profitability and purpose are incompatible goals in business, but they helped us understand how a company can leverage its purpose as a more potent formula to achieve both financial and social success.
