Corporate Governance & Board Level Development
This typically involves working with executive/management teams or full boards to facilitate member development and/or to assist them collectively to appreciate and fulfil their duties and obligations. Particular attention is paid to individual and collective performance in regard to executive management, policy development, supervision and accountability. Additionally, executive counselling is also available to facilitate the personal development of individuals in a bespoke and confidential setting.
Implementation
Governance, strategic and marketing coherence are of course important but alone are insufficient. The Business Development Consultancy therefore offers consultancy support to clients seeking the successful implementation of national or local policy. Help and advice is available in the form of understanding 'demands', involving stakeholders, project management; preparing organisations, groups or individuals for change; learning from best practice etc.
Evaluation
No alteration to governance arrangements, the introduction of a strategy or the rolling out of a marketing plan can be considered fully implemented until it has been fully evaluated. Sometimes this is a condition of 'bid' finance at other times an evaluation is conducted to test the implementation process, the impact of the initiative itself or to develop an evidence base for further/future change. A full range of quantitative and qualitative methodologies are available including balanced score card, the development of key performance indictors etc.
