APPROACH
We conceive our business being value creation and we developed
L∙R∙T∙P∙E
a proprietary core method, to deliver
LISTEN
We give customers time in order to evaluate what is the exact situation facing them. We listen to them carefully to acquire clear picture of their challenges, objectives, strategies and aspirations
RESEARCH
We conduct extensive research and collect precious information and data both internally and externally. We capitalize on our experience and extensive library of relevant projects
THINK
We analyse and assess a portfolio of alternatives, go beyond the usual, filter with stakeholders, benchmark against best practices
PROPOSE
Our proposals are well documented, feasible and appropriate to address urgency as well as fit in a structured plan ahead
EXECUTE
We complete our work by being active in implementation and we engage to review and adapt
We possess a long and wide experience on the ground and across a variety of fields and functions. We can engage in challenging, complex and multi-faceted projects and have the ability to combine a 360° view with full understanding and processing of all details. This is how we believe optimum value is created.
For each project we would pick the most appropriate mix of own resources and expertise offered by partners within the network of professionals we work with. Such approach increases our flexibility and assigns quality resources, a blend we deem cornerstone to best serving the interests of our customers.
We remain actively engaged in every single step of the way, in full control of the process and with full trust in the partners we choose to work with.
We have developed four engagement models for our customers. These models can work either as stand alone or complementary to each other.
Flag on the ground
We work as our customer’s eyes and ears, informing them on developments of interest and examining relevant projects and new business opportunities on their behalf.
Red Team
While working with our customers, we are well positioned to play the role of devil’s advocate, by challenging strategies, preconceived notions, established models and assumptions, in order to present and develop alternative scenarios that respond to their business aspirations and changing conditions.
Spearheading
Upon an agreed action plan we take the lead in the execution process, fronting the effort towards a successful outcome in full alignment with the customer.
Hand-in-Hand
After analyzing every aspect of a new project, we propose what we believe to be the optimum course of action, we deliver a fully comprehensive action plan, and we sit right next to our customers on the execution table and do not get up until the job is done.
