Do you have a vision of where you want your firm to be in 5 years or 10 years? Do you know as much about your competitors as you know about your own firm, and are you leveraging that to your advantage? Are there new technologies in development that will make your product obsolete?
These are tough questions that organizations face as they develop their strategic plan and the roadmap that will foster success. Strategy execution requires long-term organizational-wide commitment. Every external and internal communication must support that strategy; tasks that are not contributing directly towards the goals need to be reevaluated.
I can share the knowledge I’ve acquired from both theory and my practioner experience that will assist you in developing and executing a strategic plan that will enable you to achieve your organizational goals.
New ideas, new product launches change the status quo within an organization. Regardless of scope or size of the innovation or organizational change, the impact will be felt on the entire organization as well as the customers, stakeholders and the community. These impacts must be considered and addressed. Developing or changing processes and operationalizing innovation require the development of new or improved ways of doing things, coordination, communication and follow-through.
The skill set required to successfully accomplish these tasks requires training or experience, I can guide your team and transfer the knowledge I’ve gained throughout my career to them.
From ideation to the Customer’s home or business, product delivery requires a highly integrated and managed work-flow. In addition to the physical development of the product, processes and systems must be changed to manage order intake, provisioning, billing, maintenance, and testing.
Creating and changing processes also requires a well-orchestrated and executed company-wide communication plan, coordination with the corporate office, operation teams and customer-facing teams. These teams all need training, allow me to share my knowledge in each of the disciplineswith your team to facilitate a positive result.

To both gain and retain customers in competitive market environments, it’s imperative firms are innovative in management styles, product and service offerings and process development. Maintaining the status quo can no longer be a strategy because customer requirements, their purchasing decision processes and the channels from which they are purchasing from are changing.
Innovation can not just a “big idea,” the idea needs to be implemented to actually have an effect on your firm’s performance. Oftentimes that’s the hard part, talented creative minds generate the idea, but the expertise may not be available in-house to operationalize the idea.
I will share my experience with your team, and guide you through the process of operationalizing your competitive advantage and create the framework for organizational change. Most importantly I’ll engage with your team and empower them to take ownership and pride in the transformation of the firm.
