Starting Smarter with StackUp

By Andy Graham (Founder & CTO@StackUp) and Chamara Somaratne (Chief Sherpa & Founder@Anthosa)

At Anthosa, we believe meaningful transformation begins with clarity.

Our approach helps clients unlock value through clear thinking, purposeful design, and pragmatic execution. But knowing where to start – and what to prioritise – can often be the biggest challenge for leadership teams.

That’s why we use StackUp as a catalyst for smarter, faster strategy development.

From Assessment to Insight: A Smarter Way to Start

StackUp delivers a rapid, independent assessment of an organisation’s technology function across critical dimensions like people, platforms, data, delivery, and security. In less than 24 hours, it provides a clear, evidence-based view of where your organisation stands, identifying strengths, risks, and immediate opportunities.

But at Anthosa, we don’t stop at diagnostics. We use these insights as inputs into our Strategy Accelerators, helping clients transition seamlessly from assessment to action. Rather than spending weeks in abstract discovery workshops, we begin with focused data that guides conversations, aligns stakeholders, and surfaces the gaps that matter most.

Strategy Accelerators: Turning Insight into Direction

StackUp helps us kickstart strategy conversations with confidence and clarity. With a data-driven understanding of your current state, we co-design strategic responses that are grounded in reality, not assumptions.

Whether the goal is to modernise architecture, prepare for AI adoption, resolve compliance risks, or clarify the role of technology in business growth, our Strategy Accelerators provide a structured yet flexible framework to:

• Prioritise what matters most
• Align executive and delivery teams
• Identify early wins to build momentum
• Accelerate time-to-strategy without sacrificing nuance

This ensures your strategy isn’t generic, it’s built around your context, capabilities, and constraints.

From Strategy to Execution: The Role of Adoption Accelerators

Once direction is set, we help bring it to life through Adoption Accelerators, our curated pathways to implement change using best-of-breed technologies from our partner ecosystem. These accelerators are designed to remove friction from adoption, sequence key activities, and embed new ways of working without overwhelming internal teams.

Our clients benefit from a smooth handoff between strategy and execution because we ensure both are built from the same foundation: data-backed insight and a shared understanding of what needs to change.

Closing the Gap Between Knowing and Doing

In today’s fast-paced digital environment, long planning cycles can cost more than time; they erode clarity, delay outcomes, and stall momentum. StackUp helps bridge the gap between knowing and doing.

By combining diagnostic insight, strategic focus, and accelerated adoption, Anthosa enables technology leaders to move confidently from uncertainty to impact.

If you’re ready to start smarter – and accelerate your technology strategy with direction and purpose, we’d love to show you how.
