The most finely crafted business strategy will never generate any measurable value until it’s put into action and mapped against quantifiable performance objectives. Here’s how we help you create and execute a winning strategy:

Work with you to co-create a vision into strategic goals, business objectives and operating plans that can be implemented.

Pressure-test these plans with external feedback from customers, suppliers, competitors and employees to ensure that they are realistic and achievable.

Convert your plans into operational budgets and metrics that you can use to judge if your firm is on track.

Work with investors and other stakeholders to collect their input on the strategy and to build confidence to continue to invest in your company for the long term.

Identify underperforming areas of the businesses and options to improve performance.

Identify where risks to your strategy could emerge and ways to control these risks.

Identify achievable growth opportunities that may today fall outside your current operations.

Conduct employee focus group sessions to find out areas of concern and support for the plan.

Conduct regular strategy check-ups to ensure your company stays on track.

Introduce your firm to other clients that may have similar issues to provide peer-to-peer opportunities for strategy input and check-ups.

Many companies have created tremendous wealth by cutting costs, pruning product lines and reengineering their core processes. Growth, however, is equally valuable and is achievable even by mature companies in mature markets.
SMARTGrowth is a holistic approach to examining your company from the outside in and developing an action-based plan for growth. It identifies gaps in processes, systems and resources. Because of our bias on working with clients on practical solutions, we use SMARTGrowth since all goals must be “smart” in order to be successful:

Specific – so that you manage to a specifically-stated goal or performance metric that can be measured and monitored along the way.

Measurable – because no goal can be met if it’s not concrete and the target is not measured and monitored

Attainable and Accountable – to make sure you set goals that are within reach and everyone in your organization is accountable for attaining them.

Realistic – to ensure that your goals are aligned with your organization’s capabilities and resources and that you have a reasonable chance to attain them.

Time-Framed – because goals need a structure within which they will be attained and dates and deadlines create a sense of urgency.
