Strategy consulting focuses on the challenges of senior management, for example, how to increase the efficiency of operations or how to expand to new markets. Strategy consultants also contribute to the reorganization of a company’s management, when the aim is to secure clear decision-making responsibilities and accountability as well as the agility of the organization. Also, the challenges in sales and marketing, ranging from customer interface management to pricing, make for typical assignments.
Strategy consultants assist the client organization in gathering information to support decision-making. It is the task of the consultant to give new insights and to draw up tangible development proposals.
