When assessing the performances of various organisations one observation holds true – whilst there are undoubtedly many businesses where the strategy is fatally flawed there are also many which would benefit from a fresh input.
This is particularly true in the case of SME’s. These companies usually rely on the vision of a small team or even in some cases a patriarchal owner. By definition for these people due to their personal involvement it is not always easy to change direction or take appropriate remedial action.
This is where an “outsider” can be of assistance – an objective appraisal can very often mean the difference between merely drifting as opposed to decisively moving forward.
It is a brutal yet incontrovertible truth that hatchet men perform better when they are brought in from the outside the organisation.
