Board Support and Strategy
​An experienced independent director, board adviser or non-executive director can help direct your business from the very top. Board members are busy and have little time to prepare for meetings. We can help you make the most of the limited time you have together, ensuring the business is aligned and synchronised from top to bottom, as well as advising on ‘big picture’ projects and strategy.
What we do
We bring a wealth of global experience and a fresh pair of eyes to your business. Unlike rotating consultants, you will get a specialist you can build rapport with and can become a part of the team. Our experts will guide and drive growth and keep you on track for your business plan.
​
How we do it

Operational Performance Review
Our C-suite experts can assess and advise on all the internal aspects of your business including leadership structure, communication channels, employee performance and more.
KPI Benchmarking
Our experts will establish a performance assessment process, assessing internal performance, past and forecast, against comparable firms; highlighting areas of improvement and ensuring you are on track to meet your objectives.
Board Meeting Preparation
When running a business it is difficult to find the time to prepare for, plan and optimise the limited time the board shares together. Our experts can help executives streamline the process, ensuring discussions do not drag across multiple meetings.
Board Structure and Composition
We can help structure your board to ensure your business is properly represented in meetings. It is important to find a balance of experience and opinions which is difficult to get right.
Executive Coaching
Even executives can benefit from coaching. Our experts have worked at the executive level for many businesses and have sat on a variety of boards.
Sustainability
There is growing pressure for businesses to be environmentally conscious. Grants/tax breaks, waste reduction and innovative best practices enable businesses to be both sustainable and profitable. Our experts can find win-win solutions for your business and help leverage your new competitive advantage.
Corporate Social Responsibility
Businesses are facing increasing pressure to meet changing ethical and environmental standards. We can help deploy proven best practices to help meet customer demand and support your brand mission, while generating positive external impact.
Sector Networking
Our specialists can open doors to industry events and operators, building your network and giving you a competitive edge.
Innovation
Innovation can lead to great profitability but comes with uncertainty and risk. At Retail Metrics, we can help design and execute an innovation strategy, as well as implementing innovative ideas as they emerge in the market.
Zero-Based Budgeting
While time-consuming to implement, zero-based budgeting is becoming increasingly popular as it is more accurate and flexible than other budgeting methods, helping to reduce costs. We can help develop your zero-based budget.
Recruitment and People Strategy
Delivering a growth strategy, new market entry model or repositioning the business for today’s digital world is an important first step. Unfortunately, all too often the right strategy fails, or takes too long to execute, because of the management team. Our experts have seen the teams that fail and those that succeed and have spent years putting strong teams together.
