Stratford Group excels in crafting and implementing strategic plans that drive growth and adaptability. We believe that a well-thought-out strategic plan is the blueprint for success. Our collaborative approach with clients ensures that every strategic initiative is a move towards realizing that 'Better is Possible'. Here's what Kevin Ford, CEO of Calian, had to say about our Strategic Planning & Implementation services: "Everything I’ve asked, they’ve been able to bring to the table with a very capable skillset. That was not an insignificant demonstration of the trust I have in Stratford, to get ‘inside the tent’ with my executive team. Even in our internal meetings, Jim and Colleen always refer to Calian as ‘we.’ And it’s not lost on me that that is an important element of the Stratford way. It’s not a bunch of consultants that are there to give you advice and then go packing." For more on how we can help you, click here: https://lnkd.in/ep2duRrt

Ambient Consulting is founded on five core values. We have asked our leadership to express what each value means to them and why it is important to the culture of Ambient. Paige Batcha, CPA, MBA, CFO, shares her thoughts on Stewardship. Stewardship: We are responsible for embracing and serving the communities where we work and live. “The core value of Stewardship, in my opinion, is one of necessity. I believe as an individual and as an organization, we have the collective responsibility to give of time, gifts, and money to the communities surrounding us. Without the lifeblood of our community, we, as an organization, would not exist. It is within our DNA at Ambient to lift up one another to better our surroundings with each interaction, both internally and externally.” To learn more about Ambient Consulting and their company's core values, please visit: https://lnkd.in/gR6niKgn #ambientconsulting #itconsulting #corevalues

I had the pleasure of moderating a really interesting panel discussion on Succession Planning for the Advisory Board Centre Vic meeting this week. It's a hot topic for many small businesses and particularly important for those that are family run. Expertise and experience provided by panellists 🔎Sara P., Erika Hughes, and Dylan Byrne. Key takeaways: Plan early - this isn't something you can do in a hurry, it's complex. Family businesses, especially multi-generational ones should set up a family charter to help decision making when the time comes. Understand motivations and values - and treat members that are exiting with dignity ands respect, especially if they built the business to begin with. Heat Map Skills - managing a transition successfully requires multi-disciplinary input. Identify what assistance is required, and also what the business needs post-succession. This is a very small extract, we could have talked for hours about the real life stories from our panellists. Thanks Anita Muller for organising and for the photograph.

Our founders came together through a blend of family ties and business partnerships. This is where our mission of “Serving You Like Family” was born and remains our strong focus today.

It’s not easy to stand out in a crowd! This weekend me and the #ultimawaterbottle visited friends in Warwick (Castle pics to follow) as you can see, they had a quite impressive gin collection. Can you spot the #ultimawaterbottle Got me thinking, there are lots of good MSP/VAR out there, so what makes Ultima different? One thing that really stands out for me, which is also one of our company values ………. Autonomy! In my opinion Ultima stands out by granting significant autonomy to all its staff, fostering a culture of trust and innovation. This approach empowers employees to excel, driving superior service and innovation that sets us apart from competitors. Can you say the same about your employer, if not check out our live roles here, or contact me directly, it maybe the best move you make this week https://lnkd.in/esYpsmRS

I recently attended a thought-provoking forum at Strathmore Business School (SBS) on building businesses that last. The insights shared, particularly by the Chairman, Managing Director, and Board member of Heri Real Estate, were both profound and practical. Here are some key takeaways: - Always hire based on subject matter expertise. - Strengthen corporate governance and recruit top talent. - Foster independent thinking within the organization and strong internal networks. - Focus on social capital and cohesive family values within the business. - Always aim to succeed yourself by building capacity. - Emphasize entrepreneurial compensation and strategic thinking. - Understand the future of business, particularly in technology and asset securization. Business owners, myself of Sarai Afrique Limited, our primary role should be to think strategically and envision a future where our businesses thrive independently of us. Businesses that not only last but also lead the way in innovation and sustainability.
