Good strategic advice means structuring multifaceted and complex issues clearly and stringently, so that problems can be solved and solutions can be communicated. This process demands:
- Solution-oriented instead of problem-oriented thinking
- Customised individual solutions instead of standard processes
- Creative new approaches to thinking instead of sticking to old ways
- Remaining logical while developing strategy
- Disciplined implementation – mostly over long periods of time
- Involving all parties closely and early on
- Enjoying shaping the future together
I have been working this way with my clients for almost 30 years – out of conviction and with passion and joy.
