Our story

"The experiences I’ve had and the people I’ve worked with have inspired me to reach further into organisations and communities by creating a new kind of management consultancy. I call this Imagineering Futures. I’m passionate about working with people to generate vision that will have positive and sustainable impact."
Founder, David Parfrey
