An event or market expectation has created a near-term financial need.
Typical Situation
This becomes the overriding organizational priority
Other initiatives can be put on hold, and the company is considering outside resources for assistance
The senior team wants to explore hitherto untapped value within the organization and believes that consultants can help get at that value
Benefits of The IR Approach
In this instance, Insight Results combines hands-on consulting, providing a senior, partner-level team that works on-site for four months to leverage The IR Approach and e-Impact software.
The IR team counsels the senior team, organizes all aspects of the project with the support of corporate staff functions; non-essential projects are put on hold.
The IR team also works with the leaders of all organizational units to identify unit-level opportunities and ensure that those get incorporated into e-Impact.
The IR methodology is accelerated so that most of the opportunities can work their way through to approval within the four-month timeframe.
At the end of the four-month period of intense activity, the organization has hit or is nearing its financial target, and in addition now has a strong base for ongoing performance improvement activity.
