• A strategy for turbulent times

    We worked with Davie on developing a strategy that both pointed the business on a route that navigated those challenges but also addressed the wider initiatives of our owning group.

  • Challenging the conventional

    My development has been hugely influenced by John, I am now a keen advocate of the lean principles.
     

    Before my introduction to him I thought lean was something that belonged in a car manufacturing facility and not a construction project, how wrong I was!

On joining the business it became clear that a new long term strategy was required to steer the business through a turbulent political and economic environment.
 

We worked with Davie on developing a strategy that both pointed the business on a route that navigated those challenges but also addressed the wider initiatives of our owning group.
 
We recognised the need for solid building blocks in areas to improve but with a vision flexible enough to take us through a changing environment.
 
I’m really pleased to say that our business plan is now routed firmly in c2c and supported by our stakeholders as a step change in the operation of the business.
 

Davies manner is warm and personable, using his vast corporate experience to draw parallels and help focus the planning sessions.
