STRATEGY + PLANNING + MANAGEMENT
STRATEGY
We help organizations translate their
strategy into a portfolio of successfully
executed program and projects by us-
ing our three-level approach: Strategy,
Capability and Execution.
WE STRUCTURE OUR WORK WITH CLIENTS
AROUND THREE CRITICAL QUESTIONS:
STRATEGY — ARE WE DOING THE ‘RIGHT’ THINGS?
Gut instincts alone aren’t enough to manage a growing enterprise. You need strong analytics to make the quantifia-
ble strategic decisions that will drive your continued success.
We help you implement strategic alignment tools that will prioritize your capital spend and strategic initiatives using
the three dimensions of strategic value, complexity and urgency.
CAPABILITY — ARE WE ‘CAPABLE’ TO DO THE ‘RIGHT’ THINGS?
Capability is the readiness of the company to navigate the path set by its strategy. The importance of capabilities
was highlighted when research showed that some companies consistently outperformed others despite having sim-
ilar strategies, market positions, value propositions and pricing. Organizational capability is akin to the fitness level
of an athlete. The more “fit” an organization is, the higher the probability it can execute its strategy right.
Those leading companies were found to have superior capabilities that allowed them to perfect the imple-
mentation of their strategies.
EXECUTION — ARE WE ‘EXECUTING’ THE ‘RIGHT’ THINGS ‘RIGHT’?
Strategy and capability are essential to superior performance, but they are not sufficient for company success. Ex-
cellence in execution is the third required ingredient.
Execution is about getting things done. Excellence in execution is about getting things done right every time.
Our involvement during the execution phase is usually categorized under one of the following categories or a com-
bination thereof:
 Monitoring and measuring performance
 Outsourcing some of the client’s business functions
“There is nothing
so useless as do-
ing efficiently that
which should not
be done at all."
Peter Drucker
“We are what we
repeatedly do. Ex-
cellence, then, is
not an act, but a
habit.” Aristotle
“Practice isn’t the
thing you do once
you’re good. It’s
the thing you do
that makes you
good.” Malcolm
Gladwell
