Eleanor Marsh
Managing Partner
Most strategy fails in the handover, not the slide deck. We stay until the plan runs without us.
I.
Partners in the room
The people who sell the work are the people who do it — every week, until it is done.
II.
One page, not fifty
Every recommendation fits on a single page your board will actually read.
III.
An exit on schedule
We agree on day one when we step back, and we keep to it. No open-ended retainers.

From engagements completed between 2024 and 2026.
Fuzela didn’t hand us a deck. They gave us a Monday-morning operating rhythm that is still running two years later.

Notes from the work.
Strategy
Why most strategies stall in month two
The plan is rarely the problem. Month two is where ownership blurs, cadence slips and the first real trade-off is quietly avoided.
Operations
Decision rights before org charts
Redrawing boxes feels decisive. Agreeing who decides what, and by when, is what actually changes how fast an organisation moves.
Operations
Cost-out without cutting muscle
A practical way to separate the spend customers notice from the spend they never will, and to protect the first while you cut the second.
