The EXPERT Way
By following our proven process we can help you achieve your business goals.
You have a problem
Too many people are quitting. Projects deliveries are late. Your staff said it would get done and it didn’t. Your client broke a contract. You missed your sales target. You’re tired and your spouse is sick of hearing you complain about it. You’re thinking about working somewhere else, as in, anywhere but here.
Or…you’re getting all kinds of advice – from your accountant, your lawyer, your business advisor, other executives, your friend, your board – and you don’t know how to sort it out.
And… you don’t know who to turn for the right business advice.
You have an opportunity
The funding was approved for the new online training program and now you have to hire a contractor – but you don’t understand the process and you don’t know who to hire.
Or maybe your latest bid got approved – but you know that your crew isn’t ready because they don’t have the right accreditations or technical training to start the job.
Or perhaps you want to hire that talented executive assistant, but you know that the office culture is poisonous and that the new person won’t put up with everybody’s high school behaviour.
The EXPERT Way
With our proven process, we’ll create a custom solution to help you resolve your issue or take advantage of your opportunity.
Our process breaks down into 6 steps, and we use the word EXPERT to help you remember each step.
- Examination
- X-Factor Identification
- Process Mapping
- Experimentation
- Recommendations
- Take Action
In the end you’ll have a clear solution to help you move your business forward.
Examination
In the first step we examine every aspect of the problem you’re trying to solve.
The examination starts by asking relevant questions and having honest conversations about the issue.
We will also conduct a SWOT analysis to learn about your organization’s strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats.
As we get a better understanding we’ll also learn about your unique skills, which leads us into step 2.
X-Factor Identification
Sometimes leaders forget about the competitive advantages that made their organization successful in the first place.
That’s why, in step 2, we help you to emphasize your core value proposition, leadership abilities, financial edge, talented staff, and any other key factors that will contribute to making your business succesful.
Process Mapping
During this step we talk about ‘how things get done around here’.
Once we understand your core business processes, then we can talk about how they can be optimized to solve your problem or take advantage of your opportunity.
Experimentation
Now that we understand the situation, it’s time to put a small piece of your project into action.
The reason we do this is to validate whether or not your project is going to actually work.
This bite-sized approach will not only help you save time and money, but it will also confirm if your approach to this project is the right one – or more importantly – help you find out that you’re on the wrong path and that you should step back and reconsider how to move forward.
Recommendations
In step five we offer honest advice about how you can move forward.
With everything that we have learned we can now build a full set of actionable recommendations. This will always include a strategic and a ‘roadmap’ that will lay out the practical steps you need to take to achieve your goals.
Take Action
Now it's time for you to take action.
If you’ve got the right people in place to execute your project then you can take our recommendations and move forward.
But if you need additional training, coaching and consulting to be successful, then we’re ready to help.
We look forward to hearing from you!

You will also have:
- A thorough understanding of your business issue
