Ever wished you could hire half a strategist?

Lean business strategy

Everything you need to streamline and strengthen your business. Nothing you don’t.

For executive teams ready to gear up for significant and sustainable growth

Executive leaders are meant to be inspiring, energising, and motivating.

Strategy is meant to be your thing.

After 30 years of developing strategic and transformational projects with teams of all sizes (in every possible industry,) I know how hard it is to bring a strategy to life on the daily.

If your organisation is:

Pulled in different directions
Destabilised by market shocks
Struggling with boundaries
Communicating inefficiently
Too busy keeping busy

I can help.

After years of working with IT-enabled business strategies, I’ve developed a lean approach to strategy—and it’s all about working in a way that’s just right for your team.

Executive leadership, eh?

Get your Goldilocks on

Goldy had a discerning palate. She knew exactly what she wanted (and didn’t want) from a bowl of porridge. Not too hot. Not too cold. Goldy wanted her porridge just right—bear attacks be damned.

Just Right Strategy and Facilitation Packages

If you’ve got 50-150 employees and you’re ready to find a better way to work
If your team needs coaching in strategic thinking, decision making, or processes
If your business unit wants to get aligned with the larger strategic demands of the business
If you’re about to embark on a joint venture or new business model

Wherever you’re at with strategy and implementation, I can help:

Create a high-level business strategy that acts as your decision making guide

Map your priorities so you can work ‘on’ your business (as well as ‘in’ it)
Identify what success looks like so you know when you’ve arrived
Regularly review and reprioritise—while staying focused on long term goals
Stay accountable and nimble with monthly or quarterly check-ins

Whether you’re trying to stabilise or preparing for significant growth, a lean strategy approach will get you on track to fuss-free decision making, consistent value delivery, and reduced risk.

Identify the levers of success—and bring your best possible strategic outcomes to life.

Here’s how it works

My strategic process is based on Agile practices, including:

Developing a regular cadence for strategy
Clear, prioritised backlog of strategic actions
Regular checks to ensure the strategic agenda reflects what’s happening in the business

Since we can’t possibly predict what’s going to happen—in a business or in the world—your Agile strategy adapts and evolves, so you can respond in real time.

I’m Verity Byth

…and when it comes to business, I can see around corners.

I was a woman in business before Women in Business were really a thing. These days, I’ve moved on from massive, transformational projects.

I started to crave the chance to work in a more personal way with my clients. People like you, who want results without all the bells and whistles.

Good strategy requires faster, leaner, data-driven decisions

The strategic process for each team is unique.
It’s my job to help executive teams develop a process that harnesses each person’s strengths, experience, and perspective.

The result?

A confident team that responds effectively the dynamic mix of challenges and opportunities on the horizon.
