Growth Strategy and Project Management Services for Companies Seeking to Innovate and Stay Ahead of the Competition
STAY AHEAD OF THE COMPETITION
Our approach to strategic planning is to look, listen, and learn first, and then ask two crucial questions:
"Where are you?"
"Where do you want to go?"
These questions allow us to understand the competitive environment and the strategic options available to you, and to develop a plan tailored to your goals. We combine a systems thinking approach with strategic tools such as the Business Model Canvas, to optimize product-market fit, and Scenario Planning, to anticipate potential future challenges and devise appropriate solutions. Our unique international, cross-sector expertise allows us to bring ideas from multiple industries. By partnering with us, you can propel your business forward, anticipating market shifts and staying ahead of the competition.
DO THE RIGHT PROJECTS AND DO THEM RIGHT
Our program and project management methodology revolves around adapting best practices to meet your specific needs, and we consider two fundamental questions:
"How do you get there?"
"How do you know when you are there?"
These questions enable us to develop a clear roadmap and metrics for measuring and tracking progress. We are experienced setting up the Project Management Office (PMO) and utilizing tools such as the Work Breakdown Structure, to ensure we identify all the project’s tasks and dependencies, and a combination of Waterfall, Agile, and system engineering methodologies to meet specific project needs. By selecting and executing the right projects while employing best-fit methodologies, we help our clients deliver complex mission-critical projects successfully.
