Strategic Planning and Growth
Why?
Charting the Strategic Direction of the Organization – given the Emerging Opportunities, Challenges, Capabilities (of the organization) and the Possibilities that can be created.
As a means of gearing the organization to plan for and meeting the future dynamics.
To strategize quantum business growth – in challenging and opportunistic market conditions.
What?
Development of a Comprehensive Strategic Plan based on MTI’s 8S ®, sequentially covering the modules of Scope, Scan, Sights, Strategy, Structure-Staff, Systems and $Financials.
The Final Module titled ‘Straction’ breaks down the Strategic Initiatives to Action, which is then followed by a process of ‘Imple-mentoring’.
Corporate Re-structuring
Why?
Under-performing businesses – with the potential for significantly higher performance and / or in urgent need of a transformation.
What?
Ground Zero’ based Re-structuring Vs. Incremental Tweaking.
Re-casting the Conventional P&L into a Value-Chain based P&L – as the basis of the following strategic decision.
Slack Elimination in the Business Strategy – via Rationalization of Business Units, Products, Brands, Channels, Customers, Demand Generation and Supply Chain Initiatives.
Followed by Slack Elimination in the Processes and then Structure – covering Jobs, Layers, Levels and Latitude.
Market Entry Strategy
Why?
Reached the optimum level of growth in current markets. Single-country / Single-region Risk.
Single-region Risk.
Compelling Value Proposition – with potential to capture cross-border opportunities.
High Growth Opportunities in Emerging and Frontier Markets.
What?
Development of Internationalization Strategy.
Market Attractiveness and Feasibility Studies
Market Entry Strategy.
Partner Identification – Customers, Channels, Supply Chain.
M&A Integration
Why?
For rapid, quantum growth – via an inorganic business strategy.
Divestment of non-core businesses – for sharper business focus.
Cashing out – for alternate investments, inheritance, retirement.
What?
Facilitating the Programmatic M&A Integration process (on either buy-side or sell-side), which constitutes:
Defining Ideal Targets & Prospecting.
Evaluation, and selection of Investor, Divestor, Merger-Partner.
Transaction Documentation (Teasers, Information Memorandums etc.).
Valuation and Due Diligence.
Post M&A Integration via a purposeful Integration Strategy.
Process Re-engineering
Why?
Processes enable Business Models and Business Strategies to be broken down to standardized and routinized workflows.
Thus ensuring the optimum level of ‘energy’ is utilized for standardized, repetitive tasks – leading to both customer value and cost optimization.
Eliminating non-value-adding slack and inefficiencies – that tends to accumulate when processes are not regularly challenged for relevance and value.
Ensuring the investment in systems are based on a foundation of effective processes.
What?
Process Re-engineering, depending on the degree of change required, could be approached in two ways:
Ground Zero-based Approach – which starts by challenging the fundamentals of the Value Chain, Business Model, then cascades to purpose-based workflows.
Continuous Improvement Approach – which focuses on focused specific workflows in need of ‘slack’ elimination.
In both cases, tech-optimization is pursued – immediately following the optimized process disciplines.
Digital Transformation
Why?
Increasing complexity of interpreting Customers, Channels, Supply Chains, Human Resources, and Competition – in an increasingly over-communicated world.
The power of data in developing breakthrough offerings and go-to-market approaches.
What?

Covering Trends, Challenges & Opportunities, Impact on Business Model and Strategy, Core Tech (ERP), Functional / Customer-facing Tech (Apps), Analytics and Digital Strategy Enablers (Processes, People, Eco-Systems, Compliance, and Governance).
Experimentation: Minimum Viable Products (MVP) / Use Cases for Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Big Data Analytics, IoT, Blockchain, etc.
Capture, clean, process, analyze, and visualize data – enabling business decision making. Via Data Science, Big Data Analytics, Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning, Internet of Things (IoT), Robotics Process Automation (RPA).
Performance Management
Why?
To proactively track organizational performance and strategy execution – so that corrective action (if needed) can be taken.
To ensure that organizational capacities/resources are optimized.
What?
Macro Performance Management Framework– based on the Value Chain, Business Model, and Organizational Strategy.
KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) and MPIs (Market Performance Indicators) – all of which to be seamlessly linked (via a Tree Diagram) to the Organizational Goals.
Institutionalizing the Performance Management System – via Reports, Reviews, Rewards-linking, Tech-Optimization, and Internal Marketing.
Resource Optimization
Why?
Effective execution of an Organization’s Strategy is critically dependent on its Human Resources, i.e., how they are hired, inspired, and optimized to deliver optimal performance.
The need to address the fast-changing dynamics of Resourcing in the Gig Economy context.
What?
Comprehensive Audit and Recommendations covering the entire HR Eco-system i.e., Resourcing Strategy, Capacity Planning, Employee Value Proposition, Recruitment, Employee Engagement, Competency Development, Rewards & Recognition, Performance Appraisals, HR Governance, Exit Formalities and Relationship Management.
