A
Unique Mix of Talents and Experience
There are lots of talented professionals out there to call upon—communications
strategists, process facilitators, trainers, motivational
speakers, graphic designers, writers, and information managers.
Akoya
can bring together any combination of these specialists to help
you determine which strategic planning and communications solutions
will result in optimal performance. Consider Akoya when you need
to move quickly from
vision to plan to action.
Is
Akoya right for you?
Not
if … you
want a consultant to tell you what to do. In our experience,
organizations have nearly all the capabilities and knowledge needed
to build the vision and plan, provided they get the right people
to the table. Sure, bring in specialized expertise where you need
it, but don't turn your destiny over to a consultant.
Not
if …you
want a consultant to push preconceived solutions. You
need strong leadership involvement in any initiative,
to frame the vision, define the criteria for success, and establish
parameters and resources. But the best solutions—and those
most likely to succeed—are built through
participation.
Not
if … you
believe people can't really change and will need to be replaced. Yes, a few people may need to move out so an organization can
move on. But wholesale replacement of people is a tremendous
waste … and it just doesn't work. Our approach helps you build
on the strengths already in place.
Akoya can really help when ...
You
need to build consensus on the vision and explore
the "ripples" of implementing it.
You
need to translate your vision for different audiences,
making the case to policymakers, technologists, employees, partners,
investors, customers, and others.
You
need to strengthen leadership and teaming in your
organization … and you understand that training probably won't
do it alone.
