ABOUT US
Peopletoo stand with you on the frontline
Creating innovation alongside our clients is at the core of what we set out to do.
Maggie Kenney
Co-Founder & Chief Executive
Through many collective years working across both the public and private sector, Maggie Kenney and Mike Butler saw how the dynamic flexibility of an outside agency could have tremendous impact on transforming Local Authority services.
In 2009, they established Peopletoo to take private sector learning into public organisations. From day one, Peopletoo was about co-production: Combining the expertise of department staff with Maggie and Mike’s people-focused, transformative approach.
Today, Peopletoo is an established organisation operating as a key player in the industry. The team has expanded into a strong line-up of experienced consultants across the country. Together, we cover a wide range of vital specialisms for driving improvement and consistently deliver impressive return on investment in public services.
Thinking differently, we search for solutions that manage short-term pressures while ensuring stability for future generations.
