the creation of synergies
Everyone wins.
Cherry-picking for highest value
Everyone doing everything for everyone is not for us. Today’s rapid changes and complex challenges requires deep knowledge – which requires specialists who collaborate intelligently. Our recipe is built on this equation with the purpose of delivering the highest value for clients, creating effective businesses and generating thriving consultants.
We believe in…
Independency
The alliance companies are led by consultants with entrepreneurial hearts, or entrepreneurs who love consulting. Each company operates independently and has its own corporate culture. But we all share the beliefs we see as a foundation for building great consulting companies.
Value over process
Processes and structures that don’t bring value to clients are processes and structures we dismiss. We dedicate our expertise to projects – ensuring that time is focused on client needs rather than internal bureaucracy and administration. The more time consultants spend on clients, the more skilled they become, generating value for all parties. Opting for several smaller niche companies instead of a few larger ones is another way to release valuable time by streamlining management resources.
People first
We believe in the inherent willingness of people to do their best, accomplish their missions, and support their team. With us, each individual is at the core. Focusing on the individual is not about compromising performance – quite the opposite. It’s about creating the right conditions for each person to maximize their performance throughout their consulting career.
Breaking down hierarchies
We want to eliminate organizational hierarchies that interrupts momentum. This empowers us to make fast responses to market dynamics and client feedback. To stay ahead in today’s fast-paced business environment our skilled consultants have the freedom to act autonomous and make decisions on the spot.
Values and assets for our alliance companies

Buildning the alliance
Governance done right
We believe in an inclusive, non-hierarchical, and collaborative approach to governance. By educating partners and encouraging participation in boards across companies, we ensure a supportive network throughout the alliance. This model helps us avoid rigid centralization and promotes strategic initiative management across the alliance. For us, this is governance done right.
Startup factory
Our startup factory is where ideas come to life. Whether they originate internally or from external pitches, we find motivated individuals and build teams around them to launch new businesses. This value-driven approach ensures that we build purpose-driven companies with clear specializations and strong leadership.
Connecting companies
We continuously scan the market to find companies that share our values and visions. We actively seek out these businesses or welcome those that approach us, ensuring seamless integration into the alliance. By connecting companies that complement our offerings, we create valuable synergies, and reinforce our collective strength.
Skin in the game
The alliance companies are all co-owned by their managing executives. Being part of the game fosters an entrepreneurial spirit within the alliance.
