I bring your people and your organization up to cruising speed
Growing means questioning yourself from time to time, both as a person and as an organization. Taking a step back and leaving the daily hectic behind. Because those who are too close to reality eventually fail to see the overall picture.
As an independent and objective outsider, I am the ideal sparring partner to get your SME back up to cruising speed. I ask the right questions, I challenge you, and I encourage you to work with the appropriate solutions. That is sometimes challenging, but just as often the solution is so close, and you can tackle your challenge much faster and with fewer resources than you think.
Management & organization
An efficient structure and operating model are essential for any business. Only that structure doesn’t always grow with your ambitions. Result: processes become complex, communication goes awry, and growth stalls.
‘We’ve always done it this way’ is not a good indicator. I help you take a critical look at your processes and management structure. I pull your organization afloat so that growth becomes possible again. And based on my experience in change management, I help you implement change in the workplace.
Do you recognize these problems?
- "We've grown at lightning speed, and our structure squeaks and creaks.
- 'The day-to-day, operational work absorbs us. When are we going to work on strategy?
- 'I hold so many signs in the air that they threaten to fall.'
- 'I know what needs to change. But how do I convince everyone of that?'
- Am I even a good manager ? And how do I grow as a leader ?
Do you recognize these problems?
- 'We don't actually know very well what our customers want.'
- 'Our offers don't generate enough deals.' 'Why aren't we getting results from our social media, advertising and trade shows?'
- 'We are in danger of losing customers. How do we keep them happy?'
- 'Why doesn't our product catch on in the rest of Europe?'
- "How should I prospect on LinkedIn?
- "Why don't our marketing and sales work better together?
Sales & marketing
The value of your business is in the strength of your sales team. But selling more does not always mean hiring more salespeople. On the other hand, selling is also not about hacks or tricks. A strong brand story and good positioning also determine whether customers want to do business with you.
Are your sales in a struggle? Want to market a new product? Are you looking for better synergy between sales and marketing or want to break down the silos between the two departments? My no-nonsense approach and experience with sales and marketing put your teams back on edge.
Teams & talent
Did you know that one in six new employees is gone again within six months?
What is your strategy for recruiting people? And what do you do to keep them on board? Finding the right profile is sometimes searching for a needle in a haystack. Recruitment mistakes are also costly, both humanly and financially. So you want to avoid those as much as possible.
I help you look at your employees differently and build teams based on the strengths and competencies of each team member.
Do you recognize these problems?
- 'Where do I find the right employees anymore?'
- "What is employer branding and how do I get started?
- 'I work 16 hours a day. When do I hire a new employee?'
- "How do I get my employees to work better together as a team?
- "Who can train and prepare my people for further growth?
