But you have heard all this before – and you have engaged consultants to help you. Overall – have you been completely satisfied with the results for your organisation and situation?
All of SJD International’s consultants have ‘sat in your seat’ before, and one of the key points of contention we have all found with most consultants we have engaged, is the they come in, they provide a solution, and then they leave.
The ‘solution’ (although it may be technically correct) has missed the mark in adding the necessary value solution to your business – because your team stakeholders were not bought along on the development journey – they don’t feel engaged, they don’t feel ownership, they don’t feel its ‘their’ solution; they feel like its ‘something from management’ being forced upon them and is a temporary ‘problem’ they have to deal with until the current manager moves on.
This is the key point of differentiation between SJD International and other asset management service providers, and the crucial element that we bring to the table: Our key focus is to work ‘WITH’ out clients (your team), engage them as stakeholders, bring them along on the journey, and provide their teams with the associated upskilling to help them move forward.
