Professional services firms are undergoing a profound transformation. The markets are changing and the old ways of doing business are becoming obsolete. Customers paying for professional services are becoming more sophisticated and more discerning. Why are we still doing business as usual when the world around us is in such extreme flux?
The professional services industry is attractive because it requires high skill and little capital to grow firms for lawyers, accountants and consultants. Consultants today in North America and Europe are delivering services in a more independent manner, and buyers are more adept at navigating the complex integrities of client-supplier relationships.
The old pyramid model of Partner – Principal – Managing Consultant – Senior – Junior is crumbling at its base. The need to have a large contingent of junior consultants (analysts) on staff, and the economic model (blended rate with lots of cheap labor at the base) is being replaced with new more flexible hybrid models, leveraging higher skills and higher rates, with shorter projects.
If we look at management consulting as a profession, we observe a huge increase in the market supply of consultants as the “Baby Boomers” (born between 1946-64) flood the marketplace as independents, and in small boutique firms, creating new demand for their services and expertise.
Management consulting is now a mature industry in the developed economies. Arthur D. Lille founded his partnership in 1886 specialized in technical research. Frederick W. Taylor created his consulting practice in 1893. His business card read “Consulting Engineer – Systematizing Shop Management and Manufacturing Costs a Specialty.” Many other well-known brands, named after their founders, followed in the early 20 th century and been very successful businesses for several generations.
As the Industrial Revolution changed the nature of production and distribution of goods and services, demand for advice on finance, strategy and operational organization grew steadily. In the first half of the 20 th century, firms like McKinsey, Boston Consulting Group, AT Kearney, and Booz Allen Hamilton grew in influence. Harvard Business School (Monitor Group) and other fine academic institutions provided world class research into organizational design and industry best practices.

2. Modern Management (diagnosis)
Developments of our modern management
methods have turned our processes into:
• increasingly theoretical and overly-
specialised
• output-efficiency focused,
And such resulting in:
• loss of analytical thinking or strategic
overview
• unexpected different outputs (less or
even negative)
• communication deficiencies (team or
clients), tense-atmosphere/conflicts
• demotivated staff, poor performance,
• high stress levels, depressions,
burnouts
3. Our Philosophy (solution)
Overall (re-)gain as fully as possible understanding:
• your environment
(communication culture(s) with clients or team,
objectives, possible external influences on
business)
• your role
(leading versus managing, governance)
• strategic and sustainable approach
(difference long-term versus short-term
dynamics, their risks, keeping your business
going)
By attributing right values (not underestimating culture,
not overestimating your books or numbers) will provide
you a more stable output, control and comfort, loyalty
and support from within your organisation as well as
clientele, even in crisis situations.
4. Areas we focus on…
to cover all angles of your organisation we analyse and
develop a solution strategy for:
• Business Processes
(Workflows, organisation structure, etc.)
• Internal Health Check
(to identify possible personal bottlenecks hindering
the processes – is communication fluid or stagnant?
Hidden conflicts?)
• HR / Talent Management
(is the hiring process bringing the right people, are job
ads realistic, is personnel-potential being spotted and
encouraged?)
The combination of the above is essential to safeguard a
healthy and motivated workforce
5. Example (Case Study I – incentives)
Case: European branches to adopt success-
proven incentive-driven policy. Proven track
record shows turnover increase of 25%!
Result: overall loss of 10%, sudden staff
fluctuation, some close-downs
Issue:
A proven success formula cannot be applied
everywhere with same result
in some cultures incentive-driven is viewed as
sense of disrespect, making the formula
rather destructive
6. Example (Case Study II - negotiations)
Case: after lengthy negotiations, American delegation
proposes an offer to a Japanese ‘prospect
partner’, with a standard deadline to take a
decision.
Result: despite the preceding long talks, negotiations
were suddenly cut off.
Issue:
The Japanese partner felt offended by a deadline.
despite our ‘sense’ of logic and reasonability –
especially in our legal contracts and offers – this is
not always perceived equally acceptable by
others. Our seemingly objective ‘correctness’ (and
cultural misunderstandings become ultimately our
own ‘deal-killer’
7. Example (Case Study III - reorganisation)
Case: in an Accounting Department, management
introduces Lean Six Sigma to make transactions
processes ‘quicker’ and thus save on costs
(including announced lay-offs).
Result: teams felt wing-clipped and losing
motivation, fearing job-loss, extra stress,
sickness-absenteeism increased, irritation rose
and team-members stopped communicating,
error-frequency in transactions went up.
Issue:
Logical process adjustments caused team to lose
motivation efficiency went down
management assumed gain from innovative
method, implementation were poorly
communicated, therefore underestimating that
team would feel underrated and misused.
8. Conclusion:
Decision-making and interacting with clients or team-
partners is our daily reality. Far too often, excellent
workflows - without understanding a cultural context
(cultural bias or too much distraction) - make
businesses fail.
Communication and understanding therefore is an
essential part making your objectives successful: not
only to convey them, but also to listen and be aware of
who exactly your ‘audience’ is and thus being able to
avoid unnecessary misunderstandings and conflicts.
Also a well-balanced team is essential.
Understanding this is the only guarantee for long-term
success in any business
9. Our Programmes:
We offer various options of services:
• regular consultancy services (BPI, change management)
