What We Do To Support Your Business

In today’s increasingly competitive and dynamic markets, made more challenging by the global financial situation, those organisations and their people that are alert to the changing environment and prepared to respond will succeed.

Change can be difficult, and people and organisations often struggle with the very thing that makes companies successful – adapting to change. We help your organisation recognize changing environments, adapt and grow.

Adapting to change is as much a mindset as it is a behavior. When companies align their chosen strategy with their people, processes, systems and financial position, ideas become reality. We provide the systems, processes and demonstrate the behaviour required to make an executive and team more effective and adaptable to change. That is the value that we will provide to your organisation.

We will tell you what you need to hear not necessarily what you want to hear and we operate with honesty, integrity and confidentiality. We understand that you are accountable for your business and we provide the necessary support and experience to improve business performance whilst ensuring you and your team remain in control.

Our Collaboration Partners

Advector has access to significant resources and strong alliances with like-minded service companies delivering outstanding results across the USA and Asia Pacific regions. We work collaboratively with a network of consultants and deliver clients the experience, people and processes needed to strategically position themselves to effectively meet their challenges.

Our Services

Our Engagement Model

We work with clients from the point of developing business strategies to the implementation of strategies and all points in between.

Whilst each engagement is unique and services are tailored to fit the client’s needs there are some common principles and processes. Typically engagements follow a number of stages and our involvement in each stage really depends on the requirements of the client.

We develop a number of specific work plans with each work plan having a set of deliverables with each stage being important building blocks for the overall development and execution of the plan.

We work closely with a small team of senior management from throughout the process. Whilst the team makeup is determined by the client the team should ideally be multi-disciplinary with the members drawn from all key areas of the business. We also undertake workshops, seminars and individual coaching to assist businesses to align behavior with the business strategy.

We are the extra senior executive that most companies need from time to time, helping our clients through difficult decisions, strategy development and execution, but at a fraction of the cost compared with an equivalent full time employee. When our job is done new processes and behaviours are embedded, your business operates more effectively and we step away.
