Business turnaround

Management teams face considerable challenges in today’s turbulent economic times, many directors and executives having little or no experience of similar economic conditions.

Where businesses are facing underperformance we are able to offer independent advice on the immediate and long term actions required to effect a change in fortune.

In such cases and to augment existing capabilities, boards, banks and shareholders often seek to appoint an independent specialist who can step into an advisory role in the business. We have experience of operating at senior levels and can assume observer status on boards or act as coach and mentor to management.

Where companies identify a gap in the skills base of the board, especially prevalent in an economic downturn, we are able to assist with the appointment of senior management or the Board, such as chairmen, CEOs, CFOs or non-executive directors.

Where a business is in distress we can offer access to a network of independent interim turnaround executives, all of whom operate under our quality control procedures.

Our countrywide network consists of a variety of industry experts, many of them retired business executives, who have all operated at senior level in business and who have particular experience in improving the performance of struggling, stressed and troubled businesses.

Typically operating at executive level, they take assignments for periods ranging from a few weeks up to a year or more.
