Simone Snedorf
Ontologic
Cape Town
Ontologic is a strategic partner for founders, built on the belief that "What we design, designs us."
Our mission is to move founders and their teams from a state of fragmented distraction to focused flow; from reactive chaos to intentional creation.
Ontologic is an innovative, strategic partner that designs the human integration for adaptive workflows and sustainable habits. We build the precise cadence you need to make consistent progress on your critical projects, turning blockers into breakthroughs.
What We Do: Building Your Cadence
Our service is rooted in strategic clarity and relentless execution, empowering founders to lead with focus and impact.
Individual Mastery Over Distraction:
Through consistent, one-on-one sessions, we design and reinforce the workflows that become an automatic cadence for your daily life. Clients receive a weekly insights and progress report for tailored habit reinforcement, ensuring your growth is by design, not default.
Seamless Interconnection & Collective Flow:
We acknowledge that success is rarely solitary. For teams, assistants, and collaborators, we use empathy mapping to develop a 'communication blueprint'. This strategic framework establishes clear rules of engagement, defining preferences for communication, roles, and feedback, fostering harmonious collaboration and maximising collective output.
Delegation & Execution:
We host dedicated habit and delegation sessions to align team workflows directly with your business goals, ensuring every action fires toward a common objective.
The Foundational Service: Task Management
The core problem in task management is not a skills gap; it's the "prioritisation paradox." Everyone knows they should prioritise, but they don't have the time to build the fundamental habits required to overcome their persistent challenges.
Bespoke Services: Workflows and Habit
Using the above method, we create tailored workflows that are designed for your business using critical metrics to set the goals. These are broken down into smaller habits that are then built through one-on-one sessions and utilise weekly progress reporting.
