Turning around a struggling business (or major project), requires very different skills and approaches to managing a stable situation.

Urgency is paramount and knowing which corners to cut and which will lead to business and personal disaster is crucial. Normal management teams don’t spot the numerous bear traps or know how to communicate differently with banks, shareholders, staff, customers and suppliers in a crisis. Nor how to stay the right side of the law at all times to avoid disqualification as a director, imprisonment and even personal bankruptcy.

As an award winning turnaround specialist – we do. We and our partners have access to knowledge, contacts and types and sources of finance that most people don’t even know exist. 

We have specialists who have been there, done it, fallen into the hidden traps and suffered the scars – so that you don’t have to!

At the core of this service is:

• • • Proven and practical advice on how to achieve the turnaround that you seek.

    • Secrets of boosting productivity from your existing people and resources.
