Boards & Owners
Strategy and value-creation work for boards, founders and majority owners — from the first honest read of the business to the decision that follows.
The situation
The board agrees on the ambition but not on the plan, and the management deck keeps answering a different question than the one the owners asked.
Ownership is changing — a partial exit, a generational handover, a new institutional investor — and the numbers have never been stress-tested by an outsider.
Growth has slowed and nobody around the table can say, on one page, where the value in this business is actually created.
What we do
01
Strategic review
An independent read of the business: where margin comes from, which customers and lines carry it, and what the current plan assumes but has not proven.
02
Value-creation plan
A short, sequenced plan tied to ownership horizon — the two or three moves that matter, with the financing and organisational implications spelled out.
03
Ownership transitions
Preparation for a sale, partial exit, handover or new investor: equity story, data room discipline, and the diligence questions before a buyer asks them.
04
Board support
Materials the board can actually decide on, and a senior counterpart who has sat on both sides of the table when the decision is contested.
