Whether it is because of developments in the market or in the results, growth or downsizing, innovation or an exit strategy, a merger or an acquisition, most enterprises will get to a point where the vision and the mission statement, but especially the company purpose and targets need to be reviewed and translated into a new strategy. The strategy must be translated into policies. But very often the inch-thick policies are written and then disappear into a bottom desk drawer while in practice absolutely nothing changes in the company. That was not the intention!
We help the management to translate their vision into a fitting strategy, to put it on paper and then to communicate it with the employees in a way that everybody understands. We add our knowledge of business processes, internal communications and human talent to this process, together with a good sense of reality and decisiveness. This combination ensures that the new strategy and policies get organisationwide commitment. Thus the often necessary complex and strategic changes that may arise from a new course will be actually and enthusiastically implemented by the employees.
Of course our advice may also be related to more specific topics. Margriet Guiver-Freeman is very experienced in strategy, policies, organisation design and business planning – also in large and international organisations. Besides, she is accredited by the Institute for Independent Business as a general business adviser for small and medium-sized independent companies. Any more specialized knowledge and skills are available through her networks.
