Strategic Planning

• Developed realistic but strong mission statements which helped management to focus all employees' efforts on the company's core competencies.
• Directed the preparation of a five-year coporate plan for a mid-sized consumer goods company. The strategies developed resulted in a fivefold increase in sales over this period.
• Developed and implemented a distribution strategy for Indonesia's largest retailer, resulting in consolidation from eight distribution centers to two, reducing DC turnaround time from two weeks to 24 hours with virtually no capital investment.
• Analyzed and evaluated acquisition candidates for several clients and helped to successfully integrate the selected entrepreneurial company into the parent's organization.

Management Systems

• Assessed systems requirements of many clients and prepared Requests For Proposals (RFP) which were submitted to several software vendors. Assisted management in evaluating the responses and in selecting and implementing the system that most closely met their needs.
• Designed and implemented manual and computerized management information systems for many entrepreneurial clients.

Cost and Profit Management

• Reversed a four-year history of declining profits of a $20-million client enabling the owner to sell the company for four times the price offered before the turnaround.
• Effected payroll savings of $500,000 by restructuring the organization of a $70M client. Both sales and profits increased as a result of the reorganization.

Organizational Development
