To be most effective, your strategy needs to be realistic and to consider what might disrupt your plans for growth.  A well-balanced management team will be able to identify and plan for many of these possible issues.  However, an external advisor will always find some more. Involving me during your strategy setting and review will:

• Bring a different perspective, avoiding groupthink or highlighting issues which are so familiar to the team that they are overlooked;
• Add 25 years of experience to develop worst case scenarios; and
• Provide an external view on possible issues arising from management team dynamics.

If you would like to talk through how I can help you to stress test your strategy, please contact me.
