Natasja Wells Consulting
MY APPROACH
A way of working built around understanding
Every engagement is shaped around your specific context: your supply chains, your stakeholders, your internal capacity, and what you're genuinely trying to achieve. I don't apply a one-size-fits-all approach. I work collaboratively with your teams to develop the understanding and tools that will be useful long after the engagement ends.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR CONTEXT IS THE START OF EVERY ENGAGEMENT.
We start by mapping your specific context — your supply chains, your team's existing knowledge, and the problem you're trying to solve.
Listen
MY APPROACH EMPHASIZES COMMUNICATION AND DIALOGUE - LISTENING TO PEOPLE ACROSS YOUR ORGANIZATION AND SUPPLY CHAIN.
Through carefully designed research and direct engagement, we surface the critical perspectives and relationships to get to the heart of the situation you're trying to understand.
Embed
I WORK TO EMBED KNOWLEDGE AND CAPABILITY WITHIN YOUR ORGANIZATION.
Whether it's knowledge or tools, I work collaboratively with you to develop the understanding that will serve your organization beyond the engagement.
WHAT I OFFER
01
Understanding your supply chain
WHAT THIS GIVES YOU
Generating the kind of rigorous, people-centered information that gives you deeper insights into your supply chain.
The goal of my approach is to help you develop a deep and nuanced understanding of an issue, by presenting findings in a way that informs your decision making while respecting the people at the heart of your supply chain.
SERVICES INCLUDE:
Case study design and delivery
End-to-end research support: scoping, guide creation, interviews, and synthesis into evidence that tells a compelling, accurate story.
Stakeholder and supplier engagement strategy
Designing and assessing approaches to engaging your supply chain partners in ways that build trust and generate real insight.
Thematic, country, or sector briefs
Conduct desk-based research, open-source intelligence, and targeted interviews and synthesize findings into clear, actionable briefings and reports
Qualitative research design, development, and analysis
Structuring research to answer the right questions — with methodologies suited to your context and objectives (e.g., semi-structured and key informant interviews, focus groups, participatory research).
02
Capability Building
WHAT THIS GIVES YOU
Helping your teams develop the knowledge, tools, and confidence to embed human rights into sourcing practices.
Real capability doesn't come from a one-off training session. It comes from building genuine understanding of why human rights matter in supply chains — the people, the dynamics, the pressures — alongside practical skills that can be applied in day-to-day sourcing decisions and supplier relationships.
​
I start every training engagement by understanding your context: your team's existing knowledge, the specific challenges you face, and what success looks like for you. What I design is then built around that — practical, relevant, and grounded in real supply chain realities rather than abstract frameworks.
SERVICES INCLUDED
Developing labor compliance tools and policies
Working with clients to develop tools and policies that demonstrate commitment to human rights (e.g., Supplier Code of Conduct, Human Rights Policy).
Needs assessment
Understanding your team's starting point and your organization's specific context before designing any training. This applies to any engagement when you work with me.
Bespoke training design and delivery
In-person or online training built around your needs, your supply chains, and your goals — not a standard curriculum.
Training materials and guides
Context-specific resources, case studies, and reference materials your team can use and return to after the training ends. Training-the-trainer support also available.
Purchasing practices advisory
Specialist advisory on purchasing practices in the apparel and luxury goods sectors, and their impacts on suppliers and workers
Every engagement is
built around you
I don't offer off-the-shelf programs or standard packages. Whether you need a focused piece of research, a multi-session training program, or an ongoing advisory relationship, the scope and shape of the engagement is developed with you — based on what you're trying to achieve and what will actually be useful.
Sector specialisms: apparel, luxury & agriculture
Deep familiarity with the specific supply chain dynamics, relationships, and challenges in each sector.
Global reach, local sensitivity
Experience working across diverse cultural and geographic contexts, with a strong emphasis on ethical, respectful engagement.
Independent, trusted perspective
As an independent consultant, I offer honest, objective assessments, and a direct, collaborative approach.
Knowledge that stays in your organization
Designed so that what you learn and build during the engagement continues to generate value after it ends.
