Strategy

Many of the traditional ways of thinking about business have to be rethought in a world which is increasingly global and moving at incredible rates of change. Our belief is that the way to manage in this world is to shift traditional frameworks and apply them in new ways to allow for flexibility and the ability to move quickly. Our approaches are always custom tailored to an individual specific situation as it is clear that the new rules of business will not allow “cookie-cutter” solutions to be successful.

Implementation & Execution

While we believe a strong strategic approach is a very important element to creating successful results, we also believe that excellent implementation and execution is the most critical factor. Great execution on an average strategy will always beat average execution on a great strategy. To that end, The Piedmont Group places a special emphasis on working with its clients to create practical, real-world action plans along with clear processes to manage them. All of our consultants have strong operating experience and bring a bias to action and results that continually helps to push things forward.

Team Effectiveness & Leadership

We believe that clarity around roles, decision rights and norms for how a team will work together are key elements to driving results. All too often, great opportunities are lost simply because management teams did not pay enough attention to “soft issues” such as leadership, culture and team dynamics. The Piedmont Group focuses on these issues as well as the “hard issues” such as strategy and execution. Our perspective is that a focus on both sets of issues is required to drive change and therefore results through any organization. We accomplish this by working on “hard” and “soft” issues simultaneously, so that team dynamics are addressed in the context of what is required to successfully execute on strategic action plans.
