Growthpuzzl - solving for growth

A creative approach is required for new and different ideas, as what got you here won't get you where you aspire to be. However pragmatism is needed and expected for effective execution and ongoing delivery.

A combination of corporate best practices with years leading and working in / with smaller businesses and the realities of coal face execution means a balanced approach to the growth puzzle to be solved

Achieving sustainable growth is multi-facted and relies on all parts of the puzzle coming together, be they internal or external and always having a constant eye on the market / customer problem and how you solve it.

All strategies and plans, must have robust and transparent financial metrics to support the many stakeholder outcomes. I have an acute awareness of the need for delivery of value right through the chain and the importance of revenue, margin and cash plus the non-financial impacts and outcomes desired.

New ideas, approaches and solutions can't come in a comfort zone, so there needs to be a constructively challenging and provocative mindset to deliver the most productive dialogue and outcomes. 

We need to think big and think outside-in to create the foundation for real step-changes in growth. 

Nothing happens unless you have the right people on-board and they are engaged and energised to be zealots and advocates for what your business is trying to achieve. Too many strategies and plans die on the whiteboard. The successful ones are lived are owned by all and are predicated on the shared vision and purpose of the organisation.
