Bridging the gap
between business as usual
and the success of tomorrow

We define ourselves as
Contracted Transformation Managers:

we work on behalf of the owners of the company, performing a role of an external management board and / or an active shareholder.

The problem of succession

Many family businesses founded in the 1990s reach the stage where they lack an idea and / or energy for further development, or the business formula has simply “burned out”, while the heirs to the family are not willing to take control of managing the company.

Loss of competitiveness

Few companies are able to remain innovative, i.e. continuously enhance their production technology or product to remain a market leader – in many cases, the product offer becomes outdated or is simply not adapted to market needs, while rigid production costs reduce company’s price competitiveness.

Wrong decisions

The emotional attachment of owners to their business often obscures their objectivity and hinders the ability to make the right decisions or to delegate the decision-making process to the employees. Some mistakes often take many months to amend.
