About Us
Boards, Executive Committees and CEOs have sought out The Allusive Image to guide, map and implement transformation at every stage of their development, from integrating businesses, people and processes, to attaining sustainable revenue growth and operational excellence since 1997.
Where are you now? Where are you going?
Anne’s expertise has helped:
- Start-ups and corporate expansions that require an organizational design, staffing model and business, finance and marketing plan to attract investors and customers.
- Existing companies that require a turnaround, for example, due to split partnerships, decreasing customers and performance, or sunset products and services.
- International corporations have asked Anne to design and lead targeted marketing solutions, introduce unified brands and eliminate silos, and introduce government C-suites to public-private partnership opportunities.
- Boards and Executive Committees have sought Anne’s expertise to design and integrate multiple autonomous organizations, for example:
- Facilitating the organizational design, staffing (i.e. roles, overlaps), systems integration, security, locations, etc. prior to corporate mergers and developing a transformation roadmap to achieve their goals.
- Post-merger implementation, when the paperwork is done but the companies still operate autonomously.
- Legislative/regulatory change, such as bringing 44 autonomous business/crisis contact centres in 17 Ministries to collaborative agreement and introducing a plan to integrate services and share information, while maintaining regulatory and privacy requirements.
Boards, CEO’s and executives compliment Anne on her ability to create collaborative environments, targets and agreements, and inform her that their staff trusts her integrity and expertise. Anne works with you to align corporate direction, competencies, operations and markets, and connect people and disparate ideas into innovative solutions that create sustainable revenue growth and operational efficiency.
Whether you wish to increase profits, improve efficiency and capacity, expand, recruit, or exit your business, Anne can help you.
