We offer both fixed-fee and hourly engagements. Fixed fee means all costs are known upfront — no surprises. Hourly works well for ongoing advisory or coaching relationships where the scope evolves. We will recommend the structure that makes the most sense for your situation.
With questions, not assumptions. We start by interviewing key stakeholders, understanding the real challenges (not just the symptoms), and then defining a clear scope with deliverables, timelines, and accountable milestones. Most engagements are scoped within the first two weeks.
Absolutely. We run engagements as short as a few days for focused assessments and as long as 24 months for full turnarounds. There is no minimum commitment — we match the engagement to the need.
Family businesses are a specialty. The dynamics of family ownership add complexity that most consultants are not equipped to handle — succession planning, sibling rivalries, generational differences. We have navigated these situations many times and bring the neutral perspective that makes resolution possible.
“I presume nothing” — Sherlock Holmes. Every engagement starts with facts, not assumptions. We ask questions before we make recommendations, and we never arrive with a pre-packaged solution looking for a problem to fit it to.
