    Services

    We provide Corporate Development services.  The term “corporate development” refers to the planning and execution of a wide range of strategies to meet specific organizational objectives. 

     

    The kinds of activities we become engaged in may include initiatives such as:

     

    • Bringing strength to the overall management team.

    • Turning around the performance of the organization.

    • Enhancing competitive capabilities.

    • Strengthening operational performance.

    • Raising the engagement level of the workforce.

    • Boosting the quality of relationships with customers or suppliers.

    • Recruitment of a new management team or executive.

    • Plans for phasing in or out of certain markets or products.

    • Considering a partner for a strategic alliance.

    • Establishing relationships with strategic business partners.

    • Identifying and acquiring companies.

    • Securing financing.

    • Divesting of or selling assets, divisions, or the entire business.

    • Increasing intellectual property assets.

    • Developing financial tools and controls such as financial forecasts, accounting systems and controls, information technology improvements, and so on. 

     

    There is no formula for “corporate development” and the activities encompassed are often within the role of the CEO or other executives or highly experienced business consultants.  Accordingly, we become engaged in a variety of roles, as advisor to the CEO and Board of Directors, as Interim or Part-time executives, as Executive or Organizational Coaches, or as project-focused consultants.

     

    The actual structure of our engagement and the corporate strategy will depend greatly on the circumstances of the company and the area where development is desired.  In most cases, the process will not be of short duration; corporate development is usually a process that takes place over an extended period of time and may be adjusted or refined as the project moves forward.
