Our philosophy


It’s all about Strategy Execution!

We believe there is more to a company than a great strategy. Yes, strategy is very important − even crucial − but without great execution, it has no value.

Imagine you run a removals company. And every day, of the 100 boxes you move for your customers, you lose 60. How long do you think you would stay in business?

And yet, according to the Harvard Business Review: “Companies realize only 40 to 60 percent of their strategies’ potential value.” The rest is lost along the way.

These numbers don’t look encouraging − but over the last 20 years, many companies have begun to realize. that it takes more than a great strategy to be No. 1 in their industry. You need to turn your fantastic strategy into fantastic performance.

And that’s where Strategy Execution comes in − to bridge the gap between brilliant strategy and superior performance. Luckily strategy has become a fast-growing bleep on the radar screens of top executives.

But simply appearing on the radar screen is not enough to make it happen. Every company − large or small − needs a specially tailored performance management process and managers who can operate it. When this happens, a great strategy turns into great performance!
