IMPACT LEADERSHIP
Turnaround and Crisis Management
In times of financial crisis resilient leadership is needed to immediately address concerns about business performance. We stabilise businesses in the near term, gaining and providing confidence. We dig deep into the root cause of problems and engage closely with staff so that they champion your turnaround, while providing stakeholders with a clear roadmap to recovery.
We bring a vast toolkit that helps us innovate, simplify, overhaul strategy where needed, manage risk and multiple scenarios and handle restructuring sensitively.
Transformation
You need to reimagine your business. It needs to be overhauled and be a very different place tomorrow to the one it is today. Incrementalism isn't enough, visionary transformation is necessary.
Whether this is through the use of technology for productivity gains (e.g. AI, RPA, 5G), customer quality and experience, a more resilient and agile supply chain, your commercials, your talent strategy, your culture or your operating model, we are experienced in taking businesses from mission focused overhaul to full implementation, achieving gains at every step.
Growth Transition
Just like teenagers, scaling up provides growing pains. Everything creaks and aches and you don't know what to treat first. It's likely to be funds, capabilities or bandwidth within your senior leadership team, creaking processes, technology patched together or sketchy governance practices.
Don't make do and mend. We can help you through this temporary transition and demonstrate what your mature end game will look like. We can overhaul your processes, coach and develop your c-suite, hold the hands of the workforce and implement fit for purpose governance, setting you up for success.
Acquisition and Integration
It's not good enough that c.80% of acquisitions fail to deliver. Lack of strategy, false promises, over-optimistic integration synergies and a failure to engage with staff continually leads to disaster and the need for turnaround.
For a successful business integration you need a unified plan that removes invested bias. Employees need to understand the purpose and an authentic communication and people strategy is critical to adoption. In sensitive, high pressure negotiations, we bring calm and expertise in building and challenging integration synergies, taking a "no surprises" outlook. We adopt a thorough risk weighted approach to due diligence that both minimises and mitigates risk.
