A Human-centered Approach to Strategy

As business strategy consultants, we help clients bridge the gap between insight and execution. Between ideas and outcomes.

STRATEGY CONSULTING
Whether one off, or with regular ongoing cadence, we undertake bespoke business advisory and consulting engagements, and facilitate important workshops with Boards, CEOs and executives to address improvement opportunities. These have included team facilitations that create clarity, alignment and commitment to execute strategy.
We also regularly conduct stakeholder reviews to help provide current and accurate perceptions about an organisation’s effectiveness. With this, executives and teams are empowered to make decisions and take action. Organisational redesigns, capability audits, business planning, Board reviews, and other specialised engagements are ways ECI Partners seamlessly fuses business, with human dynamics, to help organisations and teams go to the next level.
CASE STUDY: STRATEGY SINGS WHEN PARTNERS ARE IN SYNC
Law firms constantly change. They are always undertaking intergenerational change, but today, more than ever, they must constantly adapt to the changing and more complex nature of the challenges their clients face, as well as the forces of digital transformation and intensifying competition.
HOW WE HELPED
ECI Partners has been in partnership with Holding Redlich for over 10 years now. We provide expert advice to the leadership team, business units and practice groups as well as offering specific coaching programs to individuals and teams as part of the implementation of the firm’s strategy.
Our advisory work has assisted the firm’s national executive and business units as well as hone the strategies of various practice groups. We pursue exceptional performance and excellent relationships with all those we work with.
We are very proud of the work we have done on behalf of the national partnership to facilitate greater collaboration through a series of state-based partner workshops. The series has had the dual goals of adding value to clients and ensuring the firm performs more effectively.
The design and conduct of a national conference for the firm’s special counsels, using highly interactive and evidence-based techniques, resulted in a unanimous commitment to new actions.
We designed, and manage, a talent development program of Pod coaching for potential partners to prepare people for higher duties and to expand their repertoire of leadership skills.
Throughout the pandemic years, we developed and delivered an online wellbeing seminar for all staff, making sure that no one slipped through the cracks and individuals had a mechanism for expressing themselves and found support for their unique circumstances.
And finally, we also provide individual executive coaching to partners so they can achieve their personal performance goals and boost the collective firepower of the firm.
THE RESULT
ECI Partners has contributed to Holding Redlich across several important dimensions and the success of this partnership is reflected in the following measures:
- 100% of participants in the pod coaching program believed it had made a positive impact on their performance
- 100% of pod program participants also said the program exceed their expectations
- 4.8/5 of practice group leaders believed the facilitator was knowledgeable, engaging and involved the whole team
We also received qualitative feedback from workshop and program participants, and the following two statements are indicative of the comments they make:
- “That was the best strategic conversation we have ever had as a firm.” (State Managing Partner)
- “Great information. Would be really useful as a full-day interactive workshop.” (Partner, and participant in a half-day planning workshop)
We’ll take all that. But there is more to it than performance scores.
An ongoing partnership is a relationship that is being judged every day, every week, month, and year. To be strengthening a relationship over several years there must continue to be value added to the relationship and the work. More than that, there must be an affinity with the firm, its people, their values, and their vision. When we are in sync with our partners there is complete alignment with objectives and the strategy sings. It’s harder to measure, but like a beautiful singer, you know it when you witness it.
