Leadership & Management Advisory

Develop the team that will carry your vision forward

Is your leadership team ready for what's next?

Growing businesses often reach a point where the leadership capabilities that got them here won't get them where they want to go:

  • Legs and feet wearing colourful trainers walking up grey stone steps

    Your management team lacks experience beyond their functional expertise

    Research shows that 71% of first-time managers in UK SMEs receive no formal leadership training, leaving them ill-equipped to handle broader business challenges

  • Empty and clear glass bottles lined up

    You're the bottleneck for too many decisions

    The business struggles when you're not available, and your involvement is required for matters that should be handled at lower levels

  • A vertical row of colouring pencils of varying length

    Your team isn't aligned around the business vision

    Different departments operate in silos, with conflicting priorities and poor cross-functional collaboration

  • A light fitting in the shape of a question mark

    You're considering exit or succession but don't have confidence in your second tier

    Studies indicate that 43% of owner-managed businesses delay exit plans due to concerns about management capabilities
