Our primary aim is to help business leaders – CEO’s, Chairmen, Boards & Directors – with issues that concern them

Contemporary issues common to all business leaders include corporate governance, board effectiveness, personal added-value criteria, management processes, culture and values.

Typical issues of specific concern include strategic review and assessment - where performance is not up to expectations, where confidence in business and development plans or investment proposals needs strengthening, or where implementing strategic change needs additional resources.

We focus on the assessment, creation and implementation of strategy

For strategies to be effective, they must be competitive; aspirations and capabilities must match. The strategic thinking, planning, monitoring and decision-making processes need to be robust and effective, the inherent assumptions and risks clearly understood.

Strategies that are not delivering expectations, typically fail either because the assumptions behind them are out of date or wrong, or because they are insufficiently demanding and targeted too low to achieve competitive success, or because they are not firmly connected to the culture and capabilities of the organisation. These situations can all develop over time as markets and technologies change faster than organisations.

We act as consultants, project or interim managers

In most cases we start in an advisory or consulting capacity. A practical test of our recommendations is that we are prepared to carry them out, and we often take direct responsibility for change projects, or undertake interim management responsibilities where appropriate resources are limited.

We can help best when major transformation is required, when complex issues need to be resolved, and when action is imperative
