Coaching and mentoring
We work with our clients to formulate their visions, dreams and ambitions and translate them into specific goals and targets.
We then encourage a realistic assessment of where you are now and develop strategies to move towards the established goals.
A plan is created with specific tasks and projects with timeframes.
Regular coaching sessions are held weekly, bi-weekly or monthly to:
review strategies and their progress
review management and financial reports
discuss current problems and issues and
review progress of ongoing projects
All players and teams need a mentor/coach whether the individual players or the team are being successful or not – there is always room for improvement.
If you find that you are slightly overwhelmed with all of the demands of your business, please call to arrange a FREE – NO OBLIGATION appointment to discuss your situation.

Business & Strategic Planning
Reviewing current business strategies is something all CEO’s, Managers and Owners should perform on a regular basis.
To do this objectively is often difficult without external stimulus or input. Often CEO’s and their executives are too close to the trees to see the forest. Having a Coach/Mentor to ask probing questions and provide intelligent alternatives and comments, can often open up strategies that have not been previously considered.
Whilst “Business Plans” in themselves are not the be all and end all, and are rarely followed to the letter, the process of Business Planning has tremendous benefit in making executives review what and how the organisation are doing things. It also provides an opportunity to review how they are performing relative to their competitors and other similar organisations..
Whilst not doing business planning may not prevent you from being successful, it is absolutely certain that with planning you would be more successful.
Not having a business plan can be likened to setting sail in a boat without a destination and without a map. You may end up somewhere, but it may not be the best place or the place you would like to be.

Development of Key Performance Indicators and Reporting Systems.
Managing a business is a demanding activity. It is easy to be reactionary, responding to all of the demands of customers, suppliers, staff, and technology. Whilst you are being pushed and pulled like a puppet it is easy for that “finger on the pulse” of the business to become less sensitive.
Key Performance Indicators (KPI’s) and reporting systems are essential to ensure that you are aware of all activities of the business that are not performing up to standard. It is equally important to know the ones that are performing better than standards.
KPI’s are the measure of performance that are the drivers of your organisations bottom line.

Financial Reports – Translation Services
Do you have an aversion to financial matters? Do you want someone to translate your financial accounts and other operating reports? Not sure if your accounting staff are providing you with accurate information?
We can review your management reporting, accounting and costing systems to ensure they provide the right information accurately.
Reviewing the daily/weekly/monthly reports and translating them for you so that you have a true picture of the situation of your business is also a service we can provide as part of a coaching/mentoring role or independently.

Cost Reduction Programs
All organisations over time develop excess expenditures by way of:
ignorance - new staff not shown systems and procedures
laziness - easy to stick with old suppliers
reluctance to negotiate – staff not trained or embarrassed
excess usage/wastage – not measured
alternative products – no review of purchases for alternative cost saving products, materials or services.
We can provide a complete assessment of your operations together with recommendations for cost savings. If required we can undertake the necessary negotiations with current and potential suppliers and service providers.

Succession Planning/Exit Strategies
