We Value and Honor the Ever-evolving Entrepreneurial Spirit
Entrepreneurship often comes at a price of personal sacrifice; business heads are not willing to embrace an opinion from an outside consultant unless they have been through the turmoil and shared the pains, and rightly so.
Managing Self is Akin to Managing Our Expectations - About Us and Others
We think management consulting should not have to always be from the bottom-up. A top-down trickle-down approach works just well especially in developing markets where we have seen established institutional voids and where entrepreneurs often feel they can't "control their destiny". In the short term, managing one's own as well as stakeholders' expectations then, becomes paramount.
Our Mantra is "Less is More"
We often tend to underestimate the entrepreneur's capacity to thrive amidst a challenging business or an economic environment without external reinforcement. A nudge to the top with a valuable nugget of insight can go a long way in turning the proverbial tide. Remember, it takes one mighty head-wind to knock the boat but a modicum of tailwind gets the sailor back on track.
Creating Value Where Needed
We think of businesses as thriving eco-systems and want to extend services where they are needed the most. Our key deliverables can range from overhauling a corporate CSR pitch deck that suit today's digital needs to creating value-driven infographics for boosting employee productivity. Get Information memos done for product launches, raising new funds or expanding to a new geographical territory; all along, we address gaps in existing thought processes by carefully aligning them to the central corporate theme.
Consulting a Business is Similar to Advising an Asset Management Firm
Our decade worth of Wall Street experience has taught us the following. Just as it is true with managing your own finances or managing someone else's wealth, other than living your passion or solving a pressing problem, running your business is basically ensuring you grow your cash flows or your investors' money by carefully executing your action plan in the face of an uncertain macro-economic environment - developed or emerging world alike. Any research, valuable insight, industry best practice, improvement benchmark or a KPI that takes you on the path of generating "alpha" is core to bottom-line increases in businesses or a money management firm.
