Our story
The most powerful stories are the ones that help us connect with others.
The story of People Powered Results is one of how connection and a shared human experience fuels positive change and develops better systems. People Powered Results works in partnership with individuals, organisations and systems to release the power of people closest to issues.
We take on some of today’s biggest challenges and face the future with curiosity and confidence. We bring energy and optimism, and embrace failures as opportunities for learning. We’re collaborators, architects of change and developers of everyday innovation.

At the same time The Rapid Results Team had developed a new method called the 100 Day Challenge that would act as a catalyst to make progress on some of society’s most entrenched social problems. A marriage of the two saw the birth of the People Powered Results team.
Fast forward to 2021 we have now been established as a Nesta owned social enterprise as part of an ambitious new 10-year strategy. This means we will not only support work focused on Nesta’s new missions, but we will also continue to work across the UK on issues that are broader than the focus of the Nesta strategy, and important to the public systems and communities that we partner with.
Diverse Multi-disciplinary Teams
Our team brings a diverse mix of expertise, skills and experience together to fuel positive change and develop better systems. The team bring a range of perspectives having held strategic and frontline roles across a range of fields from health and social care, housing, mental health, teaching and journalism, and have operated across central and local government, charitable, private and social enterprise sectors.
We are multidisciplinary teams with specialists in strategy, design, coaching, facilitation and co production….but it’s how our varied experience and shared values come together that is our biggest strength.
