Growth through effective people strategies.

Some employees are destroying value. Others are building it.

According to recent McKinsey research, more than half of employees report being relatively unproductive at work. Employee disengagement and attrition could cost millions a year in lost opportunity.

High growth organisations invest 2.6 times more than low growers in intangibles, such as people investments, and firms that prioritise people and performance see a ROIC of 28% compared to typical performers at 6%; they also report a lower employee attrition rate of 5%.

We are a talent advisory firm offering an integrated approach to leadership hiring, talent management, culture and organisational performance. Whether you are an Investor, a Founder, or a member of a Leadership Team, we will help answer the firm’s strategic talent questions with solutions to tackle fast growth related issues.

We bring extensive experience and professionalism to every project and customise our support to your needs and concerns. We recognise that time is the most scarce resource, and therefore working at pace is one of our signature processes.

The Team

The observation that teams with the best talent, and equipped with the the correct tools, structures and practices thrived compared to those that did not, quickly turned into a talent advisory consulting firm.

Following decades of hiring, evaluating and developing executives and organising teams in SMEs, in FTSE 100 and Fortune 500 firms, we advocate that asset value and business success is dependent on the quality of a company’s talent and the practices that allow that talent to flourish. Our ambition is to ensure that every client elevates growth and thrives by making better talent decisions, faster.
