Guide you through your business transformation journey
I meet a lot of executives who acknowledge they need to improve their business but wonder where to start and how to organise the transformation. I strongly believe transforming your business requires a holistic approach addressing all aspects of your organisation, in full alignment.
How do you make a step change in your business?

Change that outlives the change programme
I have developed an assessment framework (4x4>4) and structural approach (5D) executives can use in defining their transformation approach
4×4 > 4
Sixteen elements in balance deliver value to all four stakeholders at once. Change one diamond and the others move with it.
My model to assess your organisation
Your company needs to define and align 16 elements to drive value for 4 types of stakeholders
5D
A structured five step approach. This should be an iterative circle

Effective and efficient companies share two things: focus and discipline. Focus to do the right things. Discipline to do things right.
Throughout my career I have been fascinated by the key drivers of business performance. Why do companies outperform their peers? Is it their strategy? The culture? The leadership? The value proposition? The talent? I strongly believe it's all of the above. All elements should be distinctive and fully aligned. Only then will the full potential of your business be realised. With focus and discipline.
I have spent close to thirty years in business transformation, working with executives at more than a hundred companies in tech, utilities, healthcare and education — as a former partner at Accenture, EY and Infosys Consulting. I started XPLRZ to offer that experience without the overhead of a large firm: no bench, no pyramid, no handover to a junior team. You get the person who did the work.
I support clients across Europe from my base in Utrecht (NL).
