Market Focus helps clients create extra value for their customers at every stage in the value chain from raw material supplier to final consumer. From the outset of any client relationships, we understand that our role is to help you add more value than you could without us. Every activity in which we participate, is continuously assessed for the results and value it will generate.

Real value comes not only from the obvious benefits of cross-functional unity in pursuing a well thought through and internally created strategy, but also from huge time saving, not least in the progress made towards implementation while the plans and strategies are still being developed. We won’t present you with a strategy and leave you to implement it among a resistant workforce. Our process of co-creation will ensure that internal commitment and successful implementation are assured by the time strategies and plans are complete.

Process Consultancy
Unlike most larger consultancies, we are process consultants. In practice, this means that we guide and facilitate clients through a variety of constructive and collaborative learning and development processes. These allow your team to learn valuable new skills, making greater use of their knowledge and talents, while simultaneously building the foundations for your future success and delivering the changes and solutions to make it happen.

At Market Focus we understand that theoretical reports, drafted by consultants from data and ideas extracted from your employees, almost never deliver lasting value.

Imparting New Skills
Many of our clients, say that they are surprised by the improved learning and new skills that their managers develop as a result of working closely with us. Our tools, techniques and processes are delivered using a customised mix of consulting, education, training, coaching and facilitation – the techniques become an integral part of the operation and the permanent armoury used by managers to implement and continue the change process after our initial work is completed.

Links with world leading academics
We offer clients the opportunity to draw on the most up-to-date intelligence and thinking among some of the world’s leading academics. Through our links with some of the foremost business schools, including Harvard University (Boston), Babson College (Boston), Trinity College (Dublin), Insead (Paris), IMD (Lausanne) and the London Business School, we have an established network of professors who work with us to design practical processes and programmes and provide specialist consultancy to clients. The nature of these alliances enables us to achieve a perfect balance between the theoretical and the practical and to draw on the global best practice at any point in time, on almost any issue in our field of work.

Reduced conflict and improved collaboration
By working as a trusted extension of the client’s management team – often at many levels in the hierarchy and usually across a variety of functional areas – we can facilitate significant improvements in working relationships, break down conventional and destructive barriers between departments, functions and even geographic regions and establish a process of strategic and tactical collaboration between all elements of a business.
