Approach

CARNOY takes a pragmatic and down to earth approach in all that we do, working with clients to deliver real improvements to business performance. 

Often this starts by working with an executive or senior leadership team, to develop strategy and ensure absolute commitment from all concerned.  Although this process gives an organisation clear direction, it is the next step of motivating and up-skilling operational managers and securing grass roots buy-in where the real benefits are seen.

Each client and every business challenge is unique - there is no ‘one size fits all’ policy. One thing is clear; we are not about simply offering advice and walking away. We are not about writing reports which gather dust or about promoting management ‘fads’. We do believe in taking ownership and driving implementation. 

CARNOY bring energy and passion to the table, to make sure client’s plans and ideas are turned into reality.

Partnership

CARNOY is a consulting operation focused on delivering sustainable results for clients. 

Operating a network of trusted associates and partners allows CARNOY to offer flexibility in delivery approach and resourcing models.  We recognise that each client is unique and tailor our approach for every engagement, typically offering:

  • Consulting – working in partnership with clients to build strategy and deliver tangible results. This approach allows us to bring independence and objectivity to the challenges at hand
  • Interim Management – operating as part of a client organisation to boost capability or deliver transformational change. This approach takes direct accountability for a business line or programme outcome 
  • Project teams - taking the risk out of sourcing skills and project teams to fix issues and transfer expertise back into client teams
