Leaders are dealing with global disruptions never seen before, that have no end in sight, affecting all industries, with no clear solutions and no clear path to follow. Leaders have no clear vision and are unsure, not knowing which direction is needed to succeed in this uncertain time. Managers are under pressure to perform without having all the resources and the organization needed to succeed. Worthy competitors are entering all industries in all markets and an economic slowdown is expected. Organisations’ workforces are being hard hit, not sure what the future will hold for them with no clear guidance from leaders.

Tomorrow's world, will include many more elevated risks, global influences and worthy competitors that will dramatically affect the way organisations do business. An economic slowdown or recession is inevitable. Change will cause more power shifts in the global economy that will affect global brands. Sustainable growth and value creation will be be more difficult to achieve. “Out of the box” solutions, “repeatable templates”, “off the shelf” models, “best practices” and old school thinking are no longer effective and simply provide a “one size fits all” approach to a “me too solution” that are seldom effective and sustainable for our multitude of diverse clients, all with unique needs even in normal times.

At this time, many leaders are overwhelmed and not focused on strategic priorities, many opportunities to create long term value are being missed. Many organisations have a focus problem, executives under pressure to perform in search of rapid bottom line improvement constantly chase new ideas without thinking them through. Prioritizing tactics without effective strategies causes an impulsive decision making process that is usually led by distraction and implemented by executives looking for short term results and satisfaction. Cost pressures are now substantially greater than ever to optimize the bottom line; however, cost cutting and organizational effectiveness are not strategic competitive advantage, cost cutting may impede sustainable growth and value creation and cause greater problems in the future.
Many leaders do not understand the value of Strategic Competitive Advantage. Many leaders feel that their organisations do not have the capabilities, ambition or drive to compete to become market leaders or gain substantial market share. Some leaders are afraid to try to compete against larger rivals. Many leaders are afraid to attempt strategic competitive advantage in times of uncertainty or do not want to commit the resources in times of disruption. The few organisations that do understand the value of competitive advantage and are not afraid, win big. In today’s competitive business landscape Strategic Competitive Advantage and Sustainable Superior Performance are required to succeed.
Times of disruption require new research; future focused, custom tailored, next generation strategies and bold solutions specifically designed to help organisations thrive in uncertain times.
Management is one of the least efficient activities in any organization, in the longest period of value creation with the exception of technology there has been very little EPS growth in the last 13 years, that should be unacceptable to all shareholders, all stakeholders should expect more. Leaders need to do more to achieve sustainable, exceptional, profitable growth and sustainable value creation. We consider “Sustainable Superior Performance” as doing everything better than all your competitors all the time. Sustainable Superior Performance is what most shareholders expect and can be a strong Strategic Competitive Advantage that creates exceptional sustainable value creation. Sustainable Superior Performance is a challenge that yields big rewards for the organisations that succeed. We help leaders develop effective strategies that produce exceptional results, we help create agile and effective organisations that quickly overcome challenges and seize opportunities.
Organisations also need custom designed competitive advantage strategies to gain significant market share and win markets in competitive landscapes. We help organisations develop and implement an array of methods and techniques to adapt to increased competition and rising marketplace pressures, to get ahead and stay there, “Strategic Competitive Advantage”. Many leaders do not understand Strategic Competitive Advantage is required to stay ahead of existing and future competitors in existing markets and also to keep out competitors in new, under served and uncontested markets. Strategic Competitive Advantage requires the implementation of a multitude of unique, custom strategies to achieve sustainable exceptional value creation and sustainable exceptional profitable growth in competitive markets. We have very effective teams that specialize in Sustainable Superior Performance and Strategic Competitive Advantage that help organisations gain significant market share, create sustainable value, and become global industry and market leaders.

Our exceptional global research teams search for growth opportunities for our clients in times of disruption. We help clients continuously adapt, find the most direct pathways to success, keep them heading in the right direction and help them speed up to get there faster.
Consumers are changing brands at unprecedented rate, many leaders do not make best use of their organization’s brand, many brands are stale and ineffective. Brands should be a valuable source of sustainable value creation and competitive advantage in uncertain times. We develop and manage effective brands and brand strategies that create sustainable value in good times and bad. We help client;s customers enjoy, appreciate and love their brands.

The vast majority of business transformations and digital transformations fail, many strategies are unusable or extremely difficult to implement, there is no point in creating strategies that are not executable and measurable. Many consultants use template solutions for multiple clients. Many consultants do not understand what it takes to successfully execute global strategies and enterprise wide strategies, many consultants think “good enough” is satisfactory results. It has been proven many times that complacency causes failure and significant change is required to compete effectively in order to survive; when it comes to organization wide change “good enough” is far from satisfactory. Global Market leaders are changing at an unprecedented rate. We understand why transformations fail and have the knowledge, capabilities and experience to help organisations transform successfully. We are the leaders of sustainable transformation, we are obsessed with quality and perfection of implementation and execution. Transformation failure is not an option, we strive for consistently excellent execution of strategies. We specialize in constant innovation, transformation and organization adaptability. We help our clients learn, evolve and grow into a better more valuable version of themselves.
Most digital transformations fail, many AI implementations do not achieve client objectives and often the cost out-ways the benefits. Over-zealous digital sales engineers and some of the biggest and top consultants are pushing digital transformation and Artificial Intelligence (AI) implementation at the same time there transformation failure rates are accelerating. The cost and benefits of technology implementation, digital transformations and AI implementation need to be considered carefully, in many cases the cost out-ways the benefits, and the transformations and implementations do not achieve client objectives. There must be clear technology, digital, and AI objectives, precise digital and AI plans and effective strategies that ensure client strategic digital objectives can be achieved before digital transformations and AI implementations be considered. “Out of the box” and “off the shelf” digital transformation and AI solutions seldom achieve client objectives. We have been successfully implementing technology and doing successful custom designed digital transformations long before the invention of the PC and before the existence of most technology companies of today. Our technology, digital transformation and AI Teams work closely with our process, growth, management, organization, customer care, user experience and other exceptional teams to make technology, AI and digital transformations that exceed client digital objectives. We are not locked into partnerships with technology vendors, we do what is necessary and use whoever is best to make our custom designed technology transformations successful.
We optimize and enhance all aspects of our clients’ business to position their companies, products and services as leaders in the most profitable markets.
Most management and strategy consultants do not do Competitive Advantage Consulting or do not do it well, they do not want to risk losing future income opportunities from their clients’ competitors. We are highly competitive, we want our clients to win, we put the needs of our clients before our own, because integrity matters.
Most consultants are always trying to sell the latest fads and tell whoever hired them what they wanted to hear, we do not do fads, we consider long term consequences and spillover effects of our recommendations. We understand that spreadsheets and Power Point presentations coupled with data do not solve complex problems and there are many things that cannot be deduced into a quantifiable metric.
Many consultants use template solutions for multiple clients to increase profits for themselves. Template solutions are not the best solutions for the unique needs of clients and may not be effective, they may cause problems in the future. Consultants often justify their fees with cost cutting while claiming increased organization effectiveness but that is normally not the case, one simply needs to understand that most business transformations fail. Cost cutting is important but it is normally not the best option, cost cutting is not competitive advantage, and certainly not the first option when trying to achieve Strategic Competitive Advantage and “Sustainable Exceptional Value Creation”.
