Contexts & Maturity
Trading feverish urgency for calm anticipation and easy planning
Too often, companies stall in the face of an impending crisis or fail to take the time to plan for the future.
The costs of external expertise become prohibitive, and the chances of success diminish, especially when it comes to timely intervention.
The resulting losses or missed opportunities are substantial.
Through continuous monitoring and proactive measures, "Dedication" avoids these pitfalls at minimal cost and stimulates opportunities in the elegant and convenient way that best suits the company.
Thorough knowledge of the company
The 5 Pillars - The "Dedicated" Consultant meets the following five fundamental quality criteria:
-
Expert in his field(s)
-
Flexible external partner
-
Independent, neutral, and impartial advisor
-
Trainer eager to share his experience
-
Supportive coach
Profile of the "Dedicated" Consultant
In practice
Close & flexible control
The dedicated consultant is particularly suited to the following programs: "Fundamental Evolving" , "Fundamental Deep One" , and "Fundamental Deep Two" .
He works closely with key employees and resources within the company, both internally and externally as needed, but, save in exceptional circumstances, reports to the General Management that commissions his services.
The company provides him with unrestricted access to all information necessary for his analysis and assessment, and generally facilitates the completion of the assignment within the time frame and budget constraints of the chosen formula.
Like the company's CPA, the dedicated consultant works continuously over the long term. However, he does not duplicate nor replaces the role of the CPA. Where accounting experts would suggest that "the company should downsize for improved financial performance", FP&A will specifically recommend, proactively, "that 50% of employees with profile x should be replaced by n employees with profile y within a timeframe t, generating immediate savings of $500,000 per month and a 5% increase in EBT profitability within six months."
