We are a behaviour
design studio.

We are in the business of helping leaders reframe
and solve complex challenges, on the path
towards customer and employee-centricity.

Behind every
business problem is
a human problem.

This means, whether you're struggling with market share,
employee retention, product adoption, org culture, leadership
or strategic alignment, the root cause almost always lies in
understanding and influencing human behaviour.

Our Offerings

We help businesses
get unstuck and drive
transformation by reframing
business problems for human
and cultural contexts.

Innovation Pulse

We help improve your odds of success in product innovation through our rigorous Behavioural Design methodology – a structured yet fluid process of conceptualizing and prototyping, rooted in consumer behaviour, needs and culture.

Growth DNA

We help accelerate your organisation’s growth by unlocking behavioural roadblocks that act as barriers between your customer’s unmet needs and your business. This could include barriers in customer acquisition, retention, engagement, trial, purchase, etc.

Culture Compass

We help bridge the behavioural gap between what your company wants to achieve in context to your culture and how your team works currently. We focus on actionable, everyday behaviours that link your strategic goals with a thriving company culture.

Our Clients
“Converting simple obvious vectors into powerful concepts is their strength. Building from fundamentals is something Three Big Things specialises in. It was a pleasure working with such an energetic and innovative team.”
Shuvadip BanerjeeChief Digital Marketing Officer • ITC Foods
“3BT has a very practical approach to problem solving, rather than being very theoretical. They're a great partner for organizations when they want to recentre or start their journey from their customer's lens. Highly recommended.”
Vinayak ParameswaranHead of Corporate Finance & Innovation • WeWork India
“The design approach of 3BT was very well applied to understanding the problem of a cancer patient's journey and the journey of friends and family pulled into this ordeal. The collaboration with the 1mg team first to understand our current state of union and then enhancement of it through primary and secondary research was well executed. As a company we walked away with uncovering many subtle layers to the problem of helping and assisting a patient and caregiver during this difficult and emotionally taxing disease condition.”
Tanmay SaxenaCOO • TATA 1mg
“At WeWork India, along with the leadership team, we recently immersed ourselves in a two-day Design Thinking sprint with 3 Big Things.Studio. Over the course of it, we didn’t just talk about challenges, we applied structured frameworks to understand root causes, personally engaged with our members and teams, and co-created actionable solutions. It was rigorous, but above all, it sharpened our clarity.”
Karan VirwaniMD & CEO • WeWork India
“Publicly celebrating milestones reinforces identity. This taps into the power of rituals (h/t to the wonderful Shalini and Param) + identity-based habits (think James Clear). Our pilot shows a 15% increase in fitness habit formation. Now we’re scaling it.”
