RHP Sustained Engagement — Applications Open
Deadline: 12pm (midday) 10/08/2026.
What it is
A Sustained Engagement is RHP's most significant consultancy relationship. It is deep strategic work for organisations undertaking the kind of structural change that touches everything — programming, governance, income, identity. Not a single decision. Not a defined project. A sustained shift in how the organisation operates, with RHP alongside it throughout.
We take on one Sustained Engagement at a time. The next begins in September 2026.
Who it's for
Organisations at a genuine inflection point. The ones where the honest answer — the model itself needs to change — is something the leadership is ready to hear and act on. The ones with a board and a CEO willing to do the structural work, not just the surface adjustments.
This is not crisis management. It is a strategic partnership for organisations that have identified the need for change before the environment makes the decision for them.
Eligibility
Applicants must have previously engaged with RHP's consultancy offer or worked alongside Rafia in a professional capacity. We do not take on Sustained Engagements with organisations we have not already worked with in some form. The relationship foundation is not a formality — it is a prerequisite for the work.
The Process
Applications are open for three weeks only, closing at 12:00pm on 10/08/2026.
To apply:
Step one — Complete The Producing Diagnostic at rafiahussain.com/producing-diagnostic to capture a snapshot of your organisation.
Step two — At the end of your Diagnostic report, complete the enquiry form and select Sustained Engagement as your engagement type.
That's it. All applicants will be invited to book a Strategy Session from 1 September onwards — a paid engagement that allows both parties to assess fit and confirm whether the relationship has the right foundation for sustained strategic work.
The successful applicant will be confirmed in autumn 2026.
What happens if you’re not selected
Where appropriate, we will discuss a Defined Engagement with applicants who are not selected for the Sustained Engagement.
A note on supply
There is one place. We are being direct about this because you deserve clarity before you invest time in an application.
