Six engagements. One operating system.

Advisory & Strategic Planning

If you don't have a plan to succeed, then you will succeed in failing.

Strategic counsel to chief executives and leadership teams — on growth strategy, business development, complex negotiation and the relationships that unlock them.

A great plan does not simply set objectives and a strategy to reach them. It defines clearly what success looks like, communicates it, and wins the buy-in of everyone who has to deliver it.

Ron's network across technology, sport, government and property is one of the assets clients engage him for, alongside the judgement.

Executive Coaching

Developing executives to become better leaders, making better decisions.

Leadership and management are two very different concepts. You need to be great at both in today's competitive landscape if you want your business to succeed.

Success, to a large extent, comes from attracting, retaining and developing the right people — which is a discipline in itself, and the one most often left to chance.

Interim executive

Organisational Optimisation and Gap Assessment. Revenue up, cost down.

Where an organisation needs an operator rather than an adviser, Ron steps in. His Organisational Optimisation model determines the revenue levers and cost reduction strategies available, and a Gap Assessment turns that into a plan.

This is the work behind the turnarounds — Melbourne Storm after the salary cap scandal, Melbourne Polytechnic's financial recovery.

Board & non-executive director

Non-executive director, chair, governance and board advisory.

Non-executive director and chair roles, plus board advisory for organisations that need governance to catch up with their ambition.

Ron is a Graduate of the Australian Institute of Company Directors and has chaired four boards across sport, property and recreation.

Keynote speaking

Fourteen talks on leadership, crisis, governance and elite performance.

Ron is the go-to voice when adversity needs to be turned into opportunity, and is an accredited speaker with the Saxton and Zest networks.

Facilitation

Workshops, offsites and seminars that surface untapped opportunity.

Workshop and seminar facilitation that uses innovative thinking to drive organisational results and identify opportunities a team has stopped noticing.

The Elite Performance in Business program is the most structured version of this work.
