Just What is “Consulting that Cuts to the Chase™”?
If you are like most executives, you grapple with many critical
business issues. In some cases, you believe consultants can help. Yet
traditional consulting can “over-model” your business (and your mind),
take way too long and empty your corporate wallet. Traditional
consulting often re-invents the wheel – and that costs you time and
money.
At Microengagement™, our experience is that 80% or more of traditional
consulting is wasted on proposals (fees for which are often built into
the fees), gathering background information, making splashy
presentations, holding too many meetings, etc. We help you “cut to the
chase” by identifying the solutions you really need and getting the
right people to you. No messing around. Just what you need and when you
need it!
When you purchase consulting work you should buy the experience of
senior executives who have been there before. All too often,
traditional consultancies bring in their experienced staff in for the
sell and then have “kids” perform the work. This bait and switch is
just wrong. At Microengagement™, you get what you pay for - period. The
talent you choose will be the person who does the work. We created
Microengagment™ to right a wrong we often see in the consulting
business. Check out Who We Are.
There is a Better Way? (it really is!)
What business leaders really need is the simple truth – the one that
solves their problem. Wouldn’t it be great to just be able to access
the right senior “been there, done that” executives who don’t have to
re-learn your business. They just provide the answers you need.
There is a huge pool of executive talent that is not tied to one
consulting house, company or organization. Hundreds of experienced
senior-level managers are members of selective, national business
networks. They share their savvy and know-how with each other. They can
also share it with you. That’s where Microengagement™ comes in!
The networks we work with consist of seasoned executives, who must meet
high salary and position criteria (Directors, VPs and General
Managers). These networks require referrals for members to join, so not
just anyone can get in. We do not work with rank-and-file middle
managers or junior staffers. These networks also have databases where
we can prescreen members’ credentials. Check out How We Work.
We work regularly with these knowledge networks. We know how to
navigate them and tap their expertise. We put our own experience to
work to frame your issues and get to the points that matter. We
summarize your critical needs, post the right questions to our
networks, and access the most qualified people. We vet their responses
and credentials, and then connect you to one or more key people who can
really help.
It’s simple, effective and efficient! It’s Consulting that Cuts to the Chase™.
Two Ways We Meet Your Needs (these CAN do it all!):
- We connect our clients with one or more senior executives who can
provide subject matter expertise or undertake a short-term assignment,
either in-person or remotely. You may simply need a conference call
with the right individual, a written brief or plan, or one or more days
of problem solving remotely, or on-site.
- We can also assemble a customized Virtual Executive Roundtable™.
This is our unique, marquis service! The Roundtable is set up
remotely. It typically provides three or more executives who can deliver
several expert perspectives. Our clients can synthesize to solve their
issues. The opinions of several seasoned executives are simply more
effective for addressing complex issues with multiple options. We also
can take on assignments directly depending on your need. You pay for
solutions – not superfluous consulting! Through Microengagement™
you can also make important contacts for future opportunities.
