Define growth strategies
Many companies continue to use traditional approaches to strategy development. Some even succeed in this way.
Are you ready to take firm control of your growth strategy and shape your competitive arena?
Global expansion. Re-engineering. Lean practices. Mergers and acquisitions. For most companies, these strategies are reaching the point of diminishing returns. Such approaches leave little room for the early identification of emerging technologies and potential disruptions. Traditional strategy development processes, with their linear view and built-in bias toward the established and predictable, fail to prepare a company for change.
Digital and Smart Systems technologies are driving a new chapter in business, one where the destruction of value could very well outpace the construction of value for many companies. The number of variables in play can overtax a manager’s ability to make confident and informed strategic growth decisions.
Our growth strategy consulting delivers creative innovation tools, practical methods, and applied problem solving. Our collaborative mode focuses on clients’ specific needs and helps create unique strategies and early resolution to high-priority business issues.

CAPABILITIES
Traditional strategy development and planning processes with their linear view and built-in bias toward the established and predictable, fail to prepare a company for change. We think all of this has two crucial effects on strategists: First, they need better methods and processes to support strategic development in turbulent times. Second, while they are more likely to consult with outside advisors, they also need new, more creative and effective modes of interaction with them.
Our methods and approach to help clients develop distinct growth strategies include:
- Growth Strategy Facilitation
- Solution Concepts & Development
- Business Model Design & Development
- Product & Services Strategy
- Competitive Positioning
- Go-To-Market Development
- Business Case Development
We have found our clients need more than traditional strategy, design and technical development firms provide individually. As a result, we combine domain knowledge, strategy and solutions and venture design.
