SERVICES



∧

o  Strategos Consulting is specialized in helping organizations develop and execute innovative strategies that enable them to create sustainable value for customers, employees and society.

o  We conduct a fact-based strategic analysis of the external environment, internal organization and current strategy of the organization.

o  As part of strategy development we involve employees, customers and other stakeholders to improve the strategy and their commitment to it.

STRATEGY DEVELOPMENT



∧

o  Even the best-made strategies are worthless if they cannot be successfully implemented. Fewer than 15 percent of organizations report that they are successful at strategy implementation.

o  Many organizations have a fundamental disconnect between the formulation of their strategy and the implementation of that strategy into useful action.

o  Strategos helps organizations to successfully execute their strategies. First, we translate the strategy into an implementation plan with clear objectives, activities and responsibilities. Next, we support the actual execution of the strategy.

STRATEGY EXECUTION



∧

o  Organizations need to continually adapt themselves to an ever changing environment in order to survive. However, most organizations fail at organization change.

o  Achieving successful organization change remains a continuing challenge for managers and executives.

o  We help our clients with restructuring their current organization and developing new organization initiatives.

o  Strategos helps to identify the improvement potential of organization units and make scenario analyses. Based on these analyses we help our clients to develop action plans to change the organization and make it future proof together with employees.

ORGANIZATION IMPROVEMENT



∧

o  Many organizations lack an effective strategic management system with which they can realize their strategic and operational objectives.

o  Organizations often do not succeed in translating their strategies into operational objectives and activities.

o  Most strategies fail in the implementation phase because strategy formulation and execution are treated separately.

o  We help organizations to implement a strategic planning and control system system allows managers and executives to control their organizations by managing strategic planning and execution in an integrated way.

o  .

STRATEGIC PLANNING AND CONTROL



∧

o  Many organizations lack a financial business model that allows them to monitor and forecast costs, revenues and profitability.

o  This inhibits monitoring and control of current financial performance and the assessment of future developments.

o  Strategos helps organizations to develop a financial business model that gives a monthly overview of the number of customers, employees, costs, revenues and profitability.

o  The financial business model allows managers to calculate the profitability of a wide set of scenarios. This way organizations obtain insight in current and future developments.

FINANCIAL MODELING & SCENARIO ANALYSIS



∧

o  As a result of current economic and financial condition many organizations need to make their primary business processes more customer-oriented, efficient and effective.

o  Business process are often insufficiently organized from a customer perspective. Processes often flow horizontally towards costumers while organizations tend to be vertically organized into functional departments.

o  We help organizations to redesign their primary processes from a customer perspective and to minimize waste and resources, reduce throughput time and to improve the appreciation of customers, employees and society at the same time.
