Acquired through decades of collective senior management experience with product and services businesses, Stratford Managers takes a disciplined, hands-on approach to understanding and addressing our clients' objectives.
In our experience, most business challenges require multi-discipline solutions. By working with Stratford Managers, even if only for a specific functional area, you tap a base of experience spanning all disciplines. While a single executive serves as your engagement prime, our comprehensive approach ensures that you meet your objectives.
Flexible Engagement Models
We often start in an advisory capacity in a specific discipline by providing support for an executive that is facing unfamiliar challenges. Our clients draw upon our experience to overcome obstacles and improve performance in their field.
In other cases a client may ask Stratford to spearhead an initiative in a specific area as an overlay manager or to fill a temporary gap in the current management team.
Over a long term relationship, this ability to shift easily from advisory to operational role provides a means of cost effectively flexing experienced management resources to meet the unforeseen demands of the business. Our methodology includes:
- A structured quantitative and qualitative assessment in critical functional areas
- Establishing management Critical Success Factors (CSFs)
- Integrated, multi-disciplinary (cross-functional) business planning
- Implementation of plans by seasoned functional experts
- Operational reviews (Ops Reviews)
- Embedded management by functional experts
- Enhanced business processes and management skills for ongoing success
- Ongoing follow-up and counselling
