Working alongside the executive team, The Mountain Group brings the right tools to bear when businesses are facing a point of inflection. Rapid turnarounds, new explorations, or last resort restructuring can tax resources and challenge the core of an organization. The Mountain Group offers ideas, skills and time to firms whose business units are facing these material challenges. We work alongside existing management, serving as advisors, coaches, or project managers. Our principals are each experienced CEO's who have guided a variety of industries in locales around the world. We analyze systems and strengths to create opportunity Over the past twenty years, the principals of the Mountain Group have developed common understandings about business and our practice of consulting. First, we believe three elements are essential to success in business: an effective strategy, a healthy culture, and sound business practices. Second, if a firm is stagnating, or finding it difficult to move forward, rarely is a single problem the cause. Most likely there are systemic issues that need to be tackled. Third, in every company, regardless of performance, some elements are working right, that have value, and need to be nurtured and developed. Fourth, our role is not just to analyze and assess the company's specific circumstances and need; alongside management, we must develop alternative courses of action, forecast the risks and possibilities for each, facilitate consensus among the stakeholders, and then implement the measures agreed to.
