Strategic Business Leader
Fast Track Strategic Planning

Our Qualifying Run™ service taps a cross-functional team of expert consultants to assess your organization on key metrics and give you insight and recommendations on how to move to higher performance and greater achievement. Think of it like "track day" when race teams get their cars race ready and qualify to compete. This is an immediate, high-value, low-cost way to employ our deep expertise for great gain. We use a disciplined approach to:

 

  • Assess your strategies and implementation.
  • Engage and gain insight from your key team members and stakeholders.
  • Examine your customer facing and operational aspects. 
  • Identify critical issues to address and/or high-gain opportunities to pursue.
  • Deliver a concise report, dashboard and one-on-one guidance on specific steps to take so your organization will achieve more now and in the future.

 

Our Qualifying Run™ service is ideal for situations involving:

 

  • New ownership.
  • New management.
  • Sub-par performance, growth or profitability where the causes/solutions are not crystal clear.
  • The need to improve performance in a merger/acquisition/turn-around environment.
  • The need for new ideas and approaches.
  • The need for third-party objective insight.

 

How we proceed:

 

  • One or more of our senior consultants meets with one or more leaders to gain an initial understanding of your situation.
  • Based on your situation, a team of 3 senior consultants is formed to conduct the assessment.  Consultants will have both general management and functional experience relevant for your organization and situation, and they will have access to other Forrest Consulting associates to gain any specialized insight that may be needed to complete the assessment.
  • Critical issues and key opportunities are identified through methods which may include interviews, surveys, secondary research and analysis of provided organizational information.
  • The consulting team forms a set of high-level recommendations on how to proceed.
  • In both written and face-to-face presentations, the findings and recommendations are delivered and discussed.

 

You get a robust picture of the strengths and weaknesses of your organization and a set of specific, actionable recommendations on how to move to higher performance and greater success.

 

The cost/value equation for our Qualifying Run™ service is exceptional:  After the initial "no charge" meeting, our expert consultants work over an intense 2-3 week period to conduct the assessment, develop the key recommendations and deliver the insights.  The cost of this high value-add process is only $9,000 ($6,000 for a non-profit organization).
