STRATEGY CONSULTING
Strategy consultants help companies with strategic
planning for the next two to five years. This can involve choosing a strategy
for growth, making suggestions for restructuring, providing international
expertise, suggesting acquisitions/divestitures and revitalizing leadership.
While not applying fixed "recipes" some consulting firms are known for having
a specific perspective. Gemini Consulting, for example,
suggests
that businesses transform themselves by the "four R's": reframing corporate issues,
restructuring the company, revitalizing and then renewing the organization and
its people. Prominent firms in strategic consulting include:
