The General Idea

Sometimes, despite all your best efforts, it makes sense to bring in an outside observer. Regardless of what type of business you run, a new set of well-trained eyes can help you discover the things that continue to hold your business back. In a world filled with dramatic, ongoing change, we allow you to re-focus.

How We Consult

It begins with a telephone consultation. We then send a short questionnaire that we ask you to fill in and return within twenty-four hours. We then go to your business for three days. The first day is spent observing, the second interviewing, the third with the decision maker(s). Although specific recommendations are made on the third day, a written follow-up and telephone consulation occurs approximately one week after the visit.

Fees

The charge is US$4000 plus travel expenses. Half the fee is required upon booking, the other half one week prior to arrival at your business.

Recommendations

These consultancies are geared toward companies that employ between five and thirty-five people. We don't recommend our services for larger companies; however we work closely with other consultants and groups, and offer corporate retreats for larger companies that are facing change. We can also make recommendations on consultant groups that offer scientific, quantifiable measurement systems.

Our approach is human-relationship based. We believe that ALL activities and decisions are driven by a person's fundamental psychological make-up. We won't dazzle you with big words and colorful graphs and reams of research. We'll come, observe, ask lots of questions and apply our knowledge to offer you specific, RESULTS-ORIENTED action plans.

Please e-mail me or telephone 802-535-9599 with any questions you have.
