If you have the courage to try, we have the courage to help. When it’s urgent, unusual, or in disrepair it’s a problem. Almost certainly the pathway from where you are to where you need to be is ill-defined and ambiguous.This is not the province of the traditional solution provider. Detailed plans, defined methodologies, and large teams are more likely to be part of your problem than your answer. You need manoeuvrability, adaptability, expertise, and speed.

Being able to keep operating and being able to resume normal operations as quickly as possible, when the world throws an unexpected curve ball is Operational Resilience. Simply, it is expecting the unexpected and preparing to respond. Flexibility is being able to adapt your plan, not creating a plan in the middle of a crisis.
They call it the three M’s of crisis communications – managing the situation, maintaining trust, and minimising potential damage. For all the failures of the PwC tax avoidance scandal, and there are plenty, its crisis communications response, or lack of, is pretty lacklustre too.
Too often ‘Big’ is associated with good, but smaller companies often have specialist and tailored expertise, and are less reliant on scale, a methodology and a slide deck. Small also tend to be more focussed on their client than their bottom line. Founders want to build businesses because they feel they can deliver better outcomes at a better price, and because they are invested in the client outcomes.
