Clientwork
 

Our work with clients
We work with a variety of teams – across many industry sectors and business disciplines. All our client work is confidential in content, although many of our clients are happy to act as referees for us. Consequently, a significant proportion of our work comes through recommendation. Below are some examples of our work.

From 10 year decline to market leader
In partnership with the executive team of a major international hospitality business, we developed an integrated approach to strengthening the alignment between field operations and the corporate centre. Designed as a leader-led process, we ensured the business was fully aligned - up and down its hierarchy - created the environment for more open and focused performance, and directly impacted upon teamwork and collaborative capabilities. The organisation has subsequently returned to its market leading position after a 10 year decline in business performance.

Global beer company achieves growth targets
Working with the UK Divisional MD and board of a global beer company, we helped facilitate the clarification of a growth oriented business strategy. We lead a series of strategic conversations with the team on how they would achieve substantial growth in a declining market. They have subsequently achieved all key milestones on their growth and developmental journey.

Commercial performance delivered after acquisition
Following a key strategic acquisition by a leading UK property services group, we supported the development of the newly combined senior management team. This included helping them review their strategic priorities, then translating these priorities into the team and leadership development agenda. The organisation has subsequently delivered the necessary synergies and commercial performance from its acquisition.

Sales team delivers 40% growth over 2 years
Sponsored by the UK Sales Director of a leading brand luxury car manufacturer, we designed and delivered a series of development activities to enable the sales team to achieve a 40% growth in sales volume over a two year period. The business subsequently achieved all its growth objectives, and significantly outperformed other European country operations.

Business transformation delivers commercial benefits

Working with the Managing Director for Europe of a leading business services group, we helped develop the teamwork, performance and strategic focus of a critical business transformation team. Tasked with designing and leading a multi-billion pound business integration, we enabled the team to step back from their highly intense daily operations to review their approach. Significant enhancements in strategy, alignment, team communications - as well as genuine collaboration - have helped to speed the delivery of important commercial benefits and results.
