Do you need my help?
If you are looking for someone to work with you to help you to develop a strategy and plan for your business, I can help. I will will work closely with you and the key people in your organisation to identify and agree the long-term goals and aspirations for your business as well as how you are going to achieve them.
My job is to help you to develop your business strategy and plans. I do not tell you what to do or how to do it so I do not need to have knowledge or experience of any particular industry (in fact it is better if I do not have knowledge of the industry) as that is where your knowledge and expertise is. I help you to gather information and ideas from you and your management team about the future direction of your business and then structure that information into a cohesive strategic plan for your business.
I do not operate a ‘one size fits all’ solution but rather tailor my services and methods to meet your specific needs. Consequently, before starting working on your business strategy project, I will get to know you and your business to ensure that I understand issues and what you want to achieve from the process.
No Matter whether your business is a new venture, or an established business, I have the expertise and experience to give your business a competitive advantage.
