Established in 1990, Directorpower provides business advice, support and skills development to ambitious directors business owners and professionals. This is founded upon wide experience and is delivered as consultants/advisers, interim managers, non-executive directors or in a variety of forms of personal development.

Running a business is an all-consuming task, and often a lonely one. This is particularly so in smaller units where there may not be the full range of skills available. From time to time, all of us in these circumstances need compatible support. Finding the right assistance can be a problem, with the result often being unsatisfactory and expensive.

With knowledge of how difficult it really is to find the right help, Directorpower provides experienced business advisers who have demonstrated success at a senior level. The provision is tailored to suit your needs, both in skills and time commitment.

We are deeply committed to your success, and we work with you to address your objectives.

Those objectives will involve change, but it will be well-thought-out and appropriate change. You may be anxious that tackling new tasks could place an unrealistic burden on the resources of your organisation. But our solutions will be realistic and incremental. We will propose measures that are achievable, and will provide additional resource where necessary.

Independent and experienced advice is a proven way to provide vital skills and dispassionate decisions to assist direction of the business. This will reduce risk and increase opportunities. In public companies this is done through non-executive directors. For smaller businesses non-executive directors may be the right solution, but advisers, coaches or mentors augmented with skills training can often be more appropriate and flexible, and with less complication and cost.

Use the experience of others who have done it all before.

The business cycle

You may be starting a new business, growing an established business, or looking for strategic acquisitions (maybe a competitor, key technology, or an essential resource). You may need funding, make disposals to help finance your plans, or focus your strategy. You may face a crisis that threatens the business. Ultimately you will need a succession plan and an exit route.

Strategy

Directors set themselves apart from routine management tasks by being able to lift their eyes from their day to day challenges, look to the horizon and anticipate what might be approaching. They then ask themselves what they want, so in what direction they should point their business, and what needs to be done. That is the vision and focussed strategy for inspired leadership.

Motivation and Skills

The best strategy and plan will be of no effect without your key people being motivated to follow, and having the necessary skills to do so. Leadership is the essential first step in motivation. The organisation's skills will be the vital leverage on your path to success.

Determined Implementation

Implementation of your strategy depends upon your determined application of resources, skills and methods. Success requires regular reviews of Key Performance Indicators.
