What We Do - Flexible Delivery

Stacks Image 532

Define
Excellence

From a basic review of opportunity, which we call a Red Flag review, our experienced team will identify the opportunities, risks and timescales.

We can work with your team to provide tools and techniques and experience of best practice to define the vision and the new processes and systems that will need to be in place to deliver it.

Using our favoured planning approach, Goal Directed Project Management, we define the change programme, the roles, responsibilities and metrics that will deliver progress in the most assured way.

We can work alongside your team to create momentum and provide project management skills to ensure progress is maintained and obstacles overcome.

Enable Excellence

Sometimes the team simply need a little specific support or to brush up their skills in a particular area.

It is critical that the executive team are capable of sustaining and building upon the changes made initially. too many change programmes make progress only to lose it as the organisation relaxes and the influence of external practitioners is lost.

Northlight Associates' Executive Coaching services can range from providing an individual mentor to an executive or individual through to small group training courses.

We have a range of 'off the shelf' courses and we can put a package together around your specific needs.

Drive Excellence

Change, at pace, is not always amongst the skill set of executives and management teams who may have been perfectly capable in more normal trading conditions.

From a single interim executive to an entire change 'Red Team', Northlight can provide skilled and experienced executives who can take direct accountability for delivering change.

The Northlight Associates' team members become fully functioning members of the executive team and assume all of the normal roles and responsibilities as a employed member of the company's senior management team.

Northlight Associates has recently deployed Chief Executives, Chief Operating Officers and Sales & Marketing Directors

Business Turnaround

We can’t rely on the politicians or the bankers to get us out of this one. It’s already been the longest and deepest recession in living memory and it’s not about to end anytime soon. You've made the most accessible savings already and probably made some more painful decisions as well. Where next?

Diligent acquisition
So you want to grow faster than the market rate or maybe you want to enter new markets and territories quickly. Acquisition is a tempting way to do this and it can be highly effective. It can also be a massive drain on resources and increase the challenges faster than it adds to the profit line. Due diligence by operational professionals as well as the lawyers and accountants is the best way we know to maximise a successful outcome.
