(Services) Four engagement tracks
Four ways we work with leadership teams.
Every track has a fixed scope, a named partner and a price agreed before we start. Most clients begin with a three-week diagnostic.
01 / Strategy & Portfolio
Decide where to play, and what to stop funding.
For boards and executive teams facing a crowded portfolio, a new market or a three-year plan that has to survive contact with reality.
What you leave with
Portfolio review with clear stop, start and scale calls
Three-year plan the board can track quarter by quarter
Market-entry cases with explicit go and no-go thresholds
8–12 weeks
Partner + 3 advisers
02 / Operations & Cost
Take cost out without cutting muscle.
For operating leaders under margin pressure who need savings that last longer than the next budget round.
What you leave with
Zero-based cost baseline delivered in four weeks
Process, footprint and supplier redesign
Savings tracker tied directly to the P&L
10–16 weeks
Partner + 3 advisers
03 / Transformation Delivery
Turn the plan into a program that lands.
For organisations with a strategy already agreed and a track record of programs that stall in month two.
What you leave with
Program office stood up within two weeks
Weekly decision forum with the executive team
Benefits tracking, audited every quarter
3–9 months
Partner + 2–4 advisers
04 / Leadership & Governance
Give the top team decisions it can own.
For new CEOs, reshaped executive teams and boards who want a cleaner operating rhythm and fewer surprises.
What you leave with
Decision-rights map and leadership operating rhythm
Board reporting that leads with choices, not activity
In-role coaching for newly appointed executives
6–10 weeks
Partner + 1 adviser

(07) Questions we hear first
Before you pick up the phone.
Anything else, ask the partner on your first call. It is free, and it takes forty-five minutes.
Most diagnostics start within two to three weeks of a first call. If the decision is urgent, a partner can be on site within days.
