London Mentors
a Boutique Management Consulting Firm in London for Business Transformation
Your one-stop for all your business needs
Running a business without ensuring that all its departments are optimised and working in synergy is like jogging with a bad posture: not only it is dangerous, but it will also minimize efficiency and, therefore, revenue. If you are seeking an expert and professional business consultant in London able to create a tailored and effective strategy fully based on your company's needs and goals, feel free to contact us, we would love to get to know more about you and your business.
Strategy Consulting in London
We provide much more than just guidance and support. In reality, we collaborate closely with our customers to translate their abstract visions into specific targets to create successful strategy execution delivery plans that increase ROI and decrease internal inefficiencies. Our client base is diverse and spread across the whole country, allowing us to share our extensive experience and build innovative and powerful execution plans that result in effective strategies for our clientele.
As one of the most experienced small consulting firms in London, we have a considerable understanding of setting up corporate management and organisational systems, achieving competitive advantage, optimizing human capital strategies, and executing strategic change management plans.
We strongly believe that each customer case is unique, thus standard solutions do not work. We investigate an issue until we discover its source and then we devise a strong resolution plan. We don't avoid uncomfortable questions or situations; instead, we provide our clients with the tools they need to unlock them and reach their full potential.
Operations Consulting in London
Operations consulting is an extension of business consulting that shares many commonalities with strategy. Operations consultants apply a similar problem-solving technique to strategy consultants; however, they apply it to other, more practical sectors of the company or specific stages of the value chain. Operations consulting, a vital link between strategy and execution analyzes how a certain objective may be reached and offers customers precise suggestions for how to overcome a specific challenge.
This is particularly relevant in modern times as, given the rising inflation and competition, establishing and executing a Strategically Aligned Operating Model without the expertise of a qualified business consultant in London is becoming a significant obstacle for an increasing number of firms. This challenge is exacerbated by the fact that each division adjusts over time in order to achieve its own goals, which are not always perfectly aligned with the firm's targets. Furthermore, operations efficiency is progressively challenged by technological advancements used to automate manual jobs. In fact, despite the raise in efficiency and productivity that can yield, technological automation can often lead to disruptions if there wasn't a comprehensive understanding of the previous process or system prior to it.
Post Merger Integration
When firms seek to expand, it often contemplates merging with or acquiring another organisation (Target Firm). However, what many of them do not know is that around 90% of all M&A deals fail. For this reason, it is important to have a post-merger plan before the acquisition or merger is completed. That is when our PMI consultants join the scene. When the Target Company is identified, it's time to conduct a thorough investigation to search for synergies, competitive advantages, cultural fit, and firm value (which will need to be paid to the existing shareholders).
However, the actual work begins after the Target Firm is formally purchased or the merger procedure is initiated. In fact, several studies suggest that the first 100 days after a contract is signed is when the majority of the value in an unsuccessful m&a deal is lost in both businesses. A well-defined and tailored plan fosters assurance among both organisations' staff while decreasing the risk of unfavourable occurrences occurring.
As part of our PMI consultancy in London, we will arbitrate and manage communications in order to maximize internal capabilities, incentivise integration, and guarantee that day-to-day operations are not hampered in any way.
Change Management
Despite the several models that have been advocated as effective change management solutions in recent years, when it comes to people human structures, we believe that genuine experience is far more successful in providing well-structured organisational transformation support than theory. Furthermore, theory frequently confuses situations that do not need to be overcomplicated. Personally speaking, in line with the most competent strategy consulting firms in London, we believe that coercive change and miscommunication are the key causes of change failure. In fact, when employees are reluctant to change, it is a clear sign that uncertainty regarding their new roles and the new company's vision is widespread. Our highly qualified consultants can ensure a smooth transition by following a 5-step process that includes designing a change strategy, engaging people, coaching change leaders, implementing change, and maintaining change. By doing so, we will assist personnel in embracing change rather than fighting it while gradually transitioning away from their previous operational framework toward a new one.
