Brettonwoods Approach and Methods:
AIMS
-
Brettonwood offers extensive support in a wide
rage of business operations. Experienced consultants use a team
approach to solving problems, working closely with clients’ staff
at all levels. A key role is played in building effective work
groups, and in motivating and encouraging genuine employee commitment
to secure sustainable improvements.
- Our strength lies in ‘process’ and ‘resource’ consulting
techniques: enabling client organisations and people to identify
their own problems, and facilitating the process to find their
own solutions. That gives ownership and commitment to sustained
results and outcomes. We bring leading-edge knowledge and experience
to bring to bear on projects to achieve enduring improvements.
-
Brettonwood abides by the Institute of Management
Consultants (IMC)’s Code of Conduct. They will accept only
those assignments which our consultants are qualified and able
to carry out. They will respect confidential information concerning
clients’ business, and will not disclose such information
without clients’ permission. Brettonwood is a registered
practice of the IMC.
WORKING PRACTICE
Brettonwood consultants are trained to establish
a sound working relationship with Clients and their employees,
based on a clear understanding of the client’s needs.
-
Consulting programmes are always preceded
by a thorough survey of the Client’s requirements.
-
The results of the survey and the scope of
the recommended consulting programmeare included in a proposal,
which also contain estimates of the calendar time and costs
necessary to accomplish the work successfully.
-
The consulting programme will start with
the preparation of an Assignment Plan, which is presented for
discussion and agreement. The Client is encouraged to provide
information to his staff concerning the nature and objectives
of the consultancy programme of work, and Brettonwood will
assist in doing this.
-
Recommendations are submitted at relevant
stages in the consultancy work programme. Every care is taken
to ensure that they are thoroughly examined and discussed by
all concerned before they are implemented. Where apprpriate
a detailed Implementation Plan is prepared.
-
Brettonwood will provide the Client’s
staff with the necessary training and information to operate
new systems and procedures.
-
At the conclusion of the consultancy programme
the Client will be presented with a report which summarises
the work done and the benefits obtained.
