Strat-Exx Team

Our philosophy

We have often seen excellent strategies on paper which completely failed as they were at odds with the capacity of an organization to implement, adopt or absorb.  Conversely, we have witnessed many excellent executions by organizations with truly empowered teams, but which failed to maximize the potential gains due to lack of articulation or external perspectives.

Strat-Exx was founded to bridge that gap!  We eliminate these mismatches, facilitating a frictionless conduit between vision and execution.  Our approach comes from our industrial roots and experience.  This allows us to recognize both the complexities and desired objectives of your situation.  Our consulting expertise marries this with the ability to inject proven consulting methodologies and tools, industry best practices and thought leadership to deliver pragmatic but most of all, suitable and transparent solutions to take your business forward.

We work hand in hand with your organization – leveraging its existing knowledge and expertise – amplifying its capabilities to achieve your vision.  We emphasize stakeholder alignment and rigorous and agile execution, as it is pivotal to long-term success. 

We build trust and establish high performing teams by collaborating with your organization. We accelerate your profitable growth to enable your business to evolve long after the project has concluded.
