Services
Strategic 21 provides objective analysis, candid feedback and a unique perspective that ensures our clients achieve the very best outcome from their valuable yet often under resourced business development team. We offer consultancy services when and where you need them in 3 core areas:
  • New business development
  • Strategic planning
  • Sustainability analysis
Each area is unique in its application and timing yet all three require the application of organizational skills and business development expertise. Each process can be dramatically enhanced by use of an independent facilitator such as Strategic 21.

New Business Development: 

When launching a new business the key to success is concise planning and communication.  Identifying your goals, target markets, potential funding sources, prospective clients and their needs as well as determining market pricing and a product launch strategy are just a few of the many critical preparatory steps necessary to take an innovative idea to market quickly and successfully. The prospect of writing a business plan to communicate your intentions can be daunting to even the most focused entrepreneur and that is where Strategic 21 demonstrates its value. By providing a framework for the process, facilitating the right discussions between potential stakeholders, performing independent market analysis and preparing the final document we will help you communicate your innovative ideas and plans with clarity and confidence.

Strategic Planning:  

This process, usually undertaken annually by the executive or management team of an existing business, shares many of the preparatory and analytical steps of new business development, but relies much more heavily on the teams knowledge and experience of the existing business and markets within which it operates.  However, at Strategic 21 we believe that a strategic plan that simply documents your current thinking, although helpful for communicating to your stakeholders does not provide you greatest value.  A three or five year plan that identifies new opportunities, inspires new thinking and leverages your resources to the maximum brings so many more opportunities. Couple this with our objective analysis and candid input regarding deployment of tactical plans to achieve your new goals and we believe you will see a significantly higher return on investment from your strategic planning process.

Sustainability Analysis:  

At Strategic 21 we believe that sustainability considerations should influence all three segments of corporate responsibility: fiscal; societal and environmental.  By considering any one without the others, opportunities are lost and bottom line costs are unnecessarily inflated.  Our approach to developing more sustainable practices within an existing business involves the analysis of current policies, processes and prospects throughout the business with subsequent leverage of a considerable network of experts to target and resolve the issues identified.  In so doing, we are able to fast track executives and their teams to a position of knowledge from which to make sound strategic decisions.
