Consulting For Highly Motivated Individuals & Teams
Work with me to unlock your performance potential
Find a path to peak performance & mission success
Consulting is specifically aimed at providing boots-on-the-ground support for team leaders, middle managers and CXO’s, as well as professional athletes, coaches and managers banging their heads off a glass-ceiling, who recognise they cannot attain the outcome they seek without an objective investigative perspective. Typically problems manifest as:
Symptoms for startups and SME’s are line managers doing too much of their teams work and growth plateau’s.
Symptoms for large enterprises are line managers doing too much of their teams work and failing transformations.
Symptoms for athlete’s and sports teams are individual & collective cascading on-field decision errors & losses.
In every instance the problem is how team leaders, middle managers and CXO’s, as well as professional athletes, coaches and managers perceive and approach their problems, which is why our starting point is reviewing your strategy, culture and operating model. This provides us with insight on how you and your people currently think vs need to think. Put another way: We will review your Performance, People & Processes to understand how best to plug your gaps, build an action plan and execute.
Performance
Build the right strategy
Vision and mission alone determine the collective temperament, skills, action plan and resources required for mission success. Lack of mission clarity and consensus leads to decision errors for everything that follows: Mission Failure.
People
Build the right culture
Ways of working, the spoken and unspoken agreements that determine how people interact with themselves, each other and the immediate environment. Underestimating the need for the right incentives and skills leads to the most likely outcome: Mission Failure.
Process
Build the right operating model
Systems & processes, the guide rails that maintain mission focus, review & recognise progress and assess what works and what doesn’t. Underestimating the need for the right action plan and the right resources leads to the most likely outcome: Mission failure.
“I worked with Kenny at Heineken UK when Finance were going through a major transformation. He was quick to assimilate the nature and challenges of the business, supporting senior members of the Finance management team struggling with the pace of change. He has a rare combination of academic theory, very practical experience through his work in other organisations and his military background.”
Alistair Grant - Head of Procurement, Heineken UK
Discover
What’s missing from your Strategy, Culture & Processes that’s denying you mission success?
An audit to gauge your individual & collective level of understanding the problem. This will reveal what & how you think about the problem to then determine what & how you should think about the problem.
Develop
Which tools will you individually and collectively benefit from using to solve the problem?
We’ll build you a peak performance toolkit to last a lifetime. Combined with agreed measurable outcomes & objectives, you learn how to use these tools as we collaborate to solve the problems identified in discovery.
Deliver
What frequency of temporary support do you individually and collectively need?
Assessed on a case by case basis as part of the development phase & relative to the outcomes pursued. We will operate an After Action Review (AAR) cycle to ensure all objectives are achieved along with ROI.
Work with me
Would you, your team or organisation benefit from an objective perspective to catch your blindspots?
I work exclusively with highly motivated individuals and teams who’ve hit a glass ceiling, are aware they’ve hit a glass ceiling and unable to move forward. If this describes your situation then lets discuss your options.
“I worked with Kenny on an individual basis and as part of my senior leadership team to help overcome some challenges around change. The results have been excellent and it's no coincidence the overall performance accelerated in the period Kenny was working with us.”
