BUSINESS STRATEGY CONSULTING: HOW WE WORK | OAKWOOD METHODOLOGY

Our Unique Methodology: Making Strategy Pay

Our process is different because we bring a unique methodology to what we do. This involves listening, seeking to understand, challenging assumptions, finding out where you are now and where you want to get to as a business leader.

• Does your organisation have the skills, knowledge and processes to deliver audacious ambitions?
• Do you have effective methods to get the best return on investments in your business?
• You can be proud of the fact that you have brought the business this far, what is it going to take to get the company to the next level?

At Oakwood, we have developed a clear methodology and collaborative approach that we call ‘Making Strategy Pay’.  An interactive programme of workshops, projects and consultative sessions where we co-create a path to realise your vision.

How We Help

Our approach is simple: We break down your goals into practical steps and work with you to implement them in a way that fits your unique business needs, giving you a competitive edge. This involves:

1. Tailored Workshops: We provide interactive sessions where we guide you through the process of refining and applying your business strategy. These workshops are designed to give you the confidence and skills to lead your company toward your vision of success.
2. Personalised Coaching: Every business is different, and that’s why our expert coaching is customised for you. Whether you’re dealing with leadership challenges, operational roadblocks, or scaling concerns, our team will be there to help you overcome obstacles and make informed decisions.
3. Ongoing Support: Business is constantly evolving, and your business strategy needs to evolve with it. We offer ongoing support and follow-up to ensure you stay on track and can adapt to new challenges. Our goal is to help you grow sustainably, not just for the next quarter, but for years to come.

Why Work With Us?

What sets Oakwood apart from other strategic growth advisors is our proven record of helping businesses scale and reignite momentum through effective corporate strategy. We’ve worked with a variety of clients—from entrepreneurs to large corporations looking to streamline operations. Our clients have achieved measurable success, including increased revenue and profit, better leadership, and stronger operational performance.

For example, our proven methodology helped Tank Vision, a water storage solution provider, increase both sales and profits by 400% and 300% respectively. This resulted in the business becoming a market leader valued at £2m+.

“Oakwood helped us create a 5-year strategy to take our business up to $10 million from just over $1 million, becoming a market leader. This strategy focused on making our proposition more compelling and how we would communicate and then deliver this to the end user. Oakwood have a wealth of experience and real-life examples which is a refreshing change from other businesses used in the past. I would not hesitate in recommending the Oakwood team.”

Beyond Consulting: Delivering Real Competitive Edge and Results

We understand that every business faces different challenges, so we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. Our strategy consultants work closely with you to unlock untapped potential and execute your vision, goals and strategy. We take the time to understand your specific needs and objectives. By working closely with you, we ensure that the strategy we create is not only effective but also sustainable in the long term.

We don’t create a strategy for you, we ask the right questions and share our extensive experience so we can build a sustainable plan together. We find this is the best way to get your team behind it, as it comes from within your business and isn’t dictated by an external company.
