Strategy Context
Strategies are needed and are applied by all companies, regardless of industry. Our strategy consulting services span all markets and are comprehensive, but can be described by five major demands of our clients:
- Growth
- Positioning
- Sustainability
- Partnerships
- Identity
Following our high level consulting approach, ”Analyzing, Framing, Solving & Innovating,“ we focus on continuous innovation in our development and the creation of shared values for our clients and their business environments.
Strategic action describes the analysis and framing aspect of our approach, which means a detailed disassembly of problems and a search for core issues. Strategic thinking, on the other hand, requires exactly the opposite process – synthetic thinking which sums up all the fragmented parts into a meaningful and cohesive strategy.
Analyzing
As a first step, we analyze the situation of our clients. Developing a strategy requires reliable, fundamental information regarding the company’s history, present situation and future goals. In addition, we need to understand the business environment and the drivers within the company’s interdependent system and industry. Running a process of strategy development without a full picture of internal and external drivers might lead to a bad strategy which, in the end, fails.
Framing
After understanding our client’s situation within its specific context, we start framing the core problem, the core question which needs to be answered, or the core long term objective our client strives for. By defining the actual challenge, we aim for the highest level of specification as it is needed to form a strategy which meets the actual problem or goal of the company.
Solving & Innovating
Strategy development is not a copy and paste act; rather it requires a highly motivated, creative thinking capacity. By applying the latest strategy and consulting approaches, we promise up-to-date industry services on a statistical and scientific basis. However, beyond this promise, our services are influenced by creativity and innovation. Our solutions meet the conditions of a modern society and a modern way of doing business. Bearing this in mind, we see our client as our partner who we want to help succeed in their strategy development. Our strategies exert the greatest impact when our clients’ business partners, customers, and suppliers grow together. The result is long term sustainable business and the opportunity to leverage synergies on a win-win basis.
