Adding value
"Strategy without tactics is the slowest route to victory. Tactics without strategy is the noise before defeat.” - Sun Tzu
Simply put, we connect concepts and ideas with practical application - and we're good at it.
Whether its developing a vision, execution, measuring success or pivoting, our Consuls foster winning results by driving our A.C.M.E process - axis, clarity, momentum and entrenchment.
Step 1: Axis - Understanding the core or essence of what you do and what you're good at. The singularity or "Hedgehog" as Jim Collins would say. Simple ideas can generate powerful outcomes when momentum is applied to the axis.
Step 2: Clarity - With an axis comes clarity on identity and value, now you need a map to succeed. Through our partnership we learn the inputs and outputs of your business and use these linkages to chart the right plan for the journey you're undertaking in order to maximise it's value. We'll also be there to keep you on track.
Step 3: Momentum - Building momentum comes with small, visible achievements and maintaining momentum comes with measurement. As the saying goes "what gets measured gets done" and we will support you to define, report and track the best measures of momentum.
Step 4: Entrench - You're building momentum, and growing! but sooner or later you'll be on the radar of others. Now it is time to build your "Moat". All robust businesses, like castles have one as they protect you from the world of competition. Our Moat-building looks across your business to maximise the competitive advantage from your people, processes, products and property.
A.C.M.E works at corporate, business unit and functional levels.
Oh and in case A.C.M.E sounds familiar, we named our process as an homage to the character that best epitomises the drive and perseverence for achieving success... Wile E. Coyote.
