MISSION & METHODS

Our mission is to ensure your short-term solutions are crystallized and clear but that you simultaneously have the long-term horizon in view.  We call this "bifocal vision" - tactical attention to detail with a long-term strategic outlook.  We achieve results through two programs each of which is designed to meet varying client needs. 

BUSINESS SUPPORT PROGRAM

Under the IIB’s accreditation, Emerson Management Solutions is required to donate a certain amount of time each month to meet with owner / managers of small-to-medium size businesses (SMBs) – just to chat about future plans, concerns and issues they may be facing.  At that meeting, we can provide thoughts, ideas and solutions along with advice to help them achieve their short- and long-term objectives.  General questions regarding finance – banking, cash flow, credit control, raising extra working capital, and the possibility of alternative banking – are often raised, as well as questions on sales and marketing, export, finding new customers, the pros and cons of ISO 9000, TQM and all kinds of other letter and number abbreviations and combinations!  We would expect to be able to talk through most if not all areas of business which the client feels important, and point them in the directions of on-going assistance programs.

For example, if a client company qualifies for the Business Support Program:

• EMS is assigned as their personal advisor
• Direct phone contact with EMS is available at any time for problem resolution, exchanging ideas, etc., and this is generally without charge.
• The client has access to the IIB’s 3000+ accredited Executive Associates worldwide to solve virtually any problem they may face.

INTERIM EXECUTIVE PROGRAM

In affiliation with Cerius Consulting Group, you can capitalize on the popular new executive trend that offers tremendous competitive advantage - interim or part-time executive management.  In short, you bring in top-of-the-line talent on a temporary basis to solve a set of problems or embed a series of leading-edge practices.  Our goal is to help the company team improve performance.

No matter which program best suits your needs, the key benefits include:

• Proven performance with senior P&L management executive experience

• Functional breadth with resources to address any of your business needs

• Keeping your costs in the "variable " column with affordable rates

• Getting the caliber of professional support normally limited to the CEOs of Fortune 500 companies

The assistance and support provided by either of these programs is available as long as you need it and is terminated or extended with no client obligation whatsoever.

We help you identify and leverage your core strengths, competencies and growth opportunities to project what you want to be, where you want to be and how you will get there.  Our insightful, logical approach brings creative solutions that provide you with the versatility and adaptability to deal with the unexpected or unfamiliar in the future.

Our methods include a variety of techniques across a broad spectrum of business disciplines with one primary goal in mind – to provide speed, flexibility and reliability in solutions to our clients to assist them in achieving their corporate goals and help steer them through periods of change and transition.  The need may be a short-term project (e.g. market segment analysis, new product/technology launch, or product roadmap development) or a long-term plan (e.g. creating/implementing global strategies, improving overall business performance, or solving management or functional issues).  EMS can bring the resources to bear for cost-effective, timely solutions. 

Wherever possible we apply common sense, pragmatic and practical solutions for ease of implementation for the client.  We focus on  the client’s success factors – those fundamental activities they must execute better, faster and cheaper than their competitors in order to gain and hold competitive advantage.

Emerson Management Solutions… our driving purpose is to provide solutions, not just ideas, and to reduce the financial risks of implementing change.  John W. Newbern once said, "The world is made up of three types of people: those who make things happen, those who watch things happen, and those who wonder what happened!"  Let EMS help you make things happen!
