Global Expansion

Some companies are globally focused from the beginning, other enterprises fall into global expansion serendipitously, or out of necessity either because their domestic market  is too small or they must follow their customers. These efforts ratchet up the challenges and risks.

We can help. We've not only worked with countries around the globe, we've worked around the globe. In addition to our expertise we have a broad network of experts that we can tap to address the specifically challenges that arise based upon the combination of dynamic variables based upon a company's unique makeup and its target market.

Some of the projects we've worked on include validation and improving go-to-market strategy, operational set-up, business development, new market pilot execution, and interim operational management.  

governance review

Good corporate governance is critical for business sustainability so that stakeholders from employees, to lenders are confident that a company is acting in their best interests in and a way they understand and can rely upon.

Ideally companies insert good governance practices early in their lifecycle. However sometimes, a review of practices is required to ensure that governance practices adapt with the needs of the organization and the dynamic world in which it operates.

We audit your governance processes and systems  and identify gaps and solutions. We'll help you implement a governance program that suites your organizational needs. 

Transformational Change Management

Change is constant if it is anything. We ensure companies get off on the right foot by incorporating change management into their organization, and embed it so that when system upgrades happen, re-organizations are required, major initiatives are mandated the anticipated results align to leaderships expectations.  

interim and Fractional support

Outside operational support makes sense when:

• When companies are stretching to their limits, but they know that the pressure is time bound.

• When there is a change in operational leadership and the new leader has not been identified.  

• When big changes are happening, perhaps a cultural shift and having input from a "neutral" perspective.

• A company recognizes an internal knowledge or skills gap. 

With our operational expertise and broad industry perspective we bring our pattern recognition of challenges and opportunities along with innovative and proven ideas from industries and leaders that can provide an edge. 

business strategy

We work with leaders to identify and validate their approach layout the goals, strategy, objectives and tactics in a way that makes sense across the company.

We work with leadership to establish their goals and strategy aligning them with their strengths. We identify gaps and explore potential opportunities. Once the goals and strategy are determined we work with the company to break down the effort into manageable projects, identify required resources and ensure that interim milestones are called out, and progress tracking is in place.

business process Optimization

As companies scale what perviously came easily gets increasingly challenging to deliver, especially without processes and procedures in place.

We've had clients struggle to replicate what made them successful because they resisted "becoming corporate." Only after we identified and formalized processes could they measure progress and ensure the quality that brought them their initial success.

Often clients have ongoing functions but notice that employee satisfaction is dropping, deliverables are taking longer to execute, and quality may be slipping. We look at the processes in place and identify gaps, redundant work, or other friction points that once removed improve morale and reduce time and cost.  

FundRaising + IPO Preparation + preparation for acquisition

We work with companies to ensure they have the processes and structure in place for a successful company transformation event. Whether its raising the next round of funding or focusing on that exit, companies need to demonstrate maturity in their organization. We work with them to identify gaps, devise a way forward and help the priorities where to focus their limited resources.  

Similarly, companies keen to be acquired seek to make themselves as attractive as possible. One way they do so is to signal that rolling them into the organization is straightforward and brings value. Demonstrating maturity in the organization and alignment with the potential acquirer reinforces the message.
