Services

Five areas that overlap in practice. I work across management disciplines. What follows describes what actually happens in a mandate.

Organisation, process and efficiency

Ordering roles, handovers and workflows so decisions move faster, resources are used better and unnecessary work falls away.

  • Recording how work actually runs, not how it is documented
  • Settling roles, decision rights and handovers
  • Making losses in time, cost and quality visible
  • Implementing improvements and measuring their effect

Business and organisational development

Companies evolve. Their business model, organisation and responsibilities need to develop together.

  • Developing the business model and offering
  • Adapting roles, responsibilities and decision paths
  • Integrating new products, technologies and ways of working into operations
  • Including ownership, leadership and governance considerations

Implementing change

Lead and implement change so new ways of working take hold and decisions turn into results.

  • Clarifying the starting point, the goal and the decisions required
  • Putting measures into a sequence that can be implemented
  • Embedding responsibilities and management routines
  • Making progress visible and adjusting consistently

Workshops and sparring

Facilitated offsites, strategy work and regular sparring for managing directors and leadership teams.

  • Preparation with the participants, not only in the room
  • Facilitation with a result, not only a mood
  • Documented decisions and owners
  • Regular sparring available as a standing arrangement

Interim responsibility

Taking a line or project role for a fixed period, when a position is open or a programme needs leadership.

  • A clear brief, clear authority, a clear end date
  • Leading the team in day to day work
  • Handover to the permanent appointment
  • Reporting straight to the managing director or the owners

Ways of working together

  • Analysis, design, delivery

    A project with a clear brief: establish the situation, design the answer, support the delivery.

  • Workshops and sparring

    One off or regular. For decisions that need clarity faster than a project can give it.

  • Interim mandate

    Responsibility for a fixed term, in the line or in a programme, with budget and staff authority as agreed.
