Here are some examples of how our advisors can support you.

Company leaders have a very challenging role, faced with a variety of different and often conflicting demands. On the organizational and leadership side, we have witnessed the emergence of coaching models to enable better leaders and to act as a support mechanism. Nevertheless, when it comes to subject matter expertise, leaders are often isolated when it comes to unbiased and untainted advice.
We can support you with functional advice around some of the challenges that you are facing, on an ad-hoc and flexible basis, without an elaborate mandate. And if we cannot help, we likely can find someone who can!

Digital Stuff
Company: Mid-Sized / Large Enterprise
Personas: Executives
Model: Punctuated and sustained
Digital transformation, cloud, artificial intelligence……the list of buzzwords out there is long. Unfortunately, vendors and the media everywhere have managed to turn any concept into a suitcase phrase with ambivalent meaning. As a result, many leaders are confused, sometimes even unknowingly. The only thing that probably is clear, it is changing the world around us and every company should find a way to understand how to take advantage of it.
Our passion for and understanding of technology across different domains, combined with functional experience, puts us in a unique position. We can develop the best strategy for your case or optimize what you have already been working on to ensure you make the right choices, not only for today but also for tomorrow and the day after.
Optimization
Company: Mid-Sized / Large Enterprise / Private Equity
Personas: CFO, CIO, CTO
Model: Short-term and focused
Before you can invest, it is sometimes necessary to optimize first and to free up resources. You also need to create a setup that allows innovation and new investments to flourish. This is not about restructuring, rather about taking a different view and asking some of the (tough) questions that business leaders overlook due to the day-to-day challenges of running a business.
Our strong financial, operational and technical acumen allows us to quickly understand your business model and its components. We swiftly identify the pockets of value or the blockers that prevent you from taking advantage of them. Here we can also draw upon the expertise of our partner, a world leader in the digital asset management space, to discover hidden value.
Communication
Company: Mid-Sized / Large Enterprise
Personas: Executives
Model: Punctuated and sustained
Communication is one of the most powerful engines of modern company success stories. Business models have become more complex, workforces more diverse and change is constant.
Having a clearly articulated purpose, strong leadership communication, and optimized dissemination of messages are cornerstones for employees to be engaged, effective in their roles and ultimately to drive business results.
From building a communications functions through to punctuated support in a larger change management operation, we can guide you across the spectrum.
