business consulting

Smart business owners understand they don't know everything there is to know about running their business.  Rather than 'making it up' as they go along, these business owners engage the knowledge, expertise and experience of an outside consultant - someone who has fresh eyes on the business, isn't trapped in the paradigm of 'this is how we do it here' and who is willing to do whatever it takes to move the business forward.

Recent projects include:

• Interim Management of an IT company, steering it through a change of ownership and strategy
• Learning & Development Consultant for a recruitment company, integrating the culture of the business with its strategy
• Systems development and implementation for a small plumbing business, enabling the owner to 'download' the information previously stored only in his head
• Turn-around management for a manufacturing company as it emerged from administration

Areas of Expertise

• Strategy - Planning and Execution
• Leadership Effectiveness and Engagement
• Culture change
• Organisational Development
• Training & Facilitation
• Interim Management
• Marketing - Strategy and Implementation
• Team Performance
• Operational Performance

Keith and Cat's consulting insight is based on a combined 55 years of professional experience across virtually every industry and business-type imaginable.  We have worked in or with hospitality, professional services, manufacturing, IT, Real Estate, beauty, retail, recruitment, trades, primary industries, training and development, youth-programs, personal development, finance, online businesses, HR, banking, mining..... from micro-business of only 1 person to companies of thousands of employees.

We call ourselves 'generalist' consultants with deep knowledge in a number of areas, and the access to further information and contacts as required.  This generalist approach means we can strategically manage both the big picture and the fine details of your business - a rarity amongst many 'specialist' consultants. 

But a Consultant is Expensive, Right?

Many business owners put off having a discussion with a consultant for fear of the expense... or worse, fear of looking like they don't have all the answers. 

In terms of the expense, the initial consultation is free of both fees and obligation - so we invite you to just give us a call to discuss your situaton.

In terms of the fear of looking like you don't know everything - why would you?  You went into business because you are good at what you do... not necessarily good at managing or building a business.  We're good at business - that's 'our thing' - so use our minds to improve your performance.

Call us and we can discuss your situation.  At that point we will outline our recommended course of action and provide either a proposal or a fee for scoping the project.  You are not comitted to anything until you say so.... and often just having that initial conversation creates clarity and momentum.
