Who we are

Thistle&Lime Consulting is a company for brave and ambitious personal, professional and business growth.

Our experts will provoke and equip each individual, group or organization with lots of inventive, sharp, bittersweet ideas and meaning on the way to enhance their performance and cooperation for achieving better results every day.

If you are looking for something challenging and enlightening to help you reach your full potential and even more, as an individual or as an organization, contact us and we will walk you through a special and meaningful, individualised process.

Our approach does not shy away from the “deeply theoretical” in favour of the “simple and practical” or vice versa, since neither theory nor practice exist independently of each other and we are prepared to demonstrate why.

Ethics and Guiding Principles

  • We commit to diligent research and preparation before every consulting activity, regardless of scale or length of the project.

  • All project work, suggested programmes and consulting services follow from a professional screening process, which includes the people involved, the particular professional environment, goals, targets and client specific needs.

  • We strongly believe that there are no flawless individuals, teams or organizations and perfection is only worth striving for when we define it as being better today, than you were yesterday. It is our aim to inspire and nurture this mentality across all aspects of working with our clients and partners.

  • We treat all communication and shared information with care, respect and full confidentiality.

  • We hold Truth, Beauty, Fairness, Goodness and our Creative Drive as fundamental values, which guide our behaviour and serve as starting principles for all of our work and activities which involve our clients, partners and friends.
  • We are continuously acquiring new knowledge and skills, evolving our habits and behaviour, in order to keep up with our own professional standards, as well as satisfy an ever shifting and changing market.
