ISΔS Overview (cont)
Since its foundation in March of 2004, ISΔS has established a client base across a wide spectrum of both b2b and b2c industries and segments ranging from Service Provision, Digital Media and Hi-Tech IT through to Industrial Engineering & Manufacturing with a cross section of company sizes across the full range of SME classifications.
The following experiences have been particularly formative in the development of ISΔS services.
An experienced learning curve of the business trials and tribulations of leading, managing and directing a SME through the challenges of survival and transformation in an increasingly competitive and global environment where 'change' is the only constant
Strategic Business and Sales & Marketing planning for SME enterprises of all shapes and sizes creating consensus, alignment and balance throughout the enterprise
Turnaround of a 'phoenix' bought out of administration and taken through restructuring and turnaround onto a successful mid-sized SME
An understanding of how lonely it can be at the top; an often quoted truism that is all the more appreciated when you have personal experience of what this really means! Particularly relating to the difficulty of getting totally dispassionate and objective advice on sensitive matters
The experience of organisational restructuring and subsequently establishing a successful global enterprise
Experience of successfully managing and leading the transformational change associated with both rapid downsizing as well as rapid growth; particularly under tight cashflow conditions ... an experience which also provides real world appreciation of another truism – 'cash is king'!
The challenge associated with transforming a VC funded enterprise solely focused on traditional management techniques based upon financial metrics and annualised budgeting into a contemporary management culture based upon flexibility and process management; aligned with the balanced management of non-financial metrics and key value drivers
The challenges of successful fund raising (even in today's credit-crunch environment) and public listing and the distraction these cause for the leader and some senior managers
The dynamics of a professionally operating board environment and the benefit of this to MD/CEO
The challenges of achieving breakthrough in the growth cycles experienced by every enterprise
An understanding of the difficulty presented by operational 'distractions' in achieving appropriate and dynamic balance on short and long term issues with proper consideration of cause effect outcomes
