At this time of the year, IMCG is helping many clients with change management and business development. Based on business environment analysis, we review the business model together with the client and prepare a strategy for next year. Based on the strategy, the business plan is then updated with identified change proposals.
Analysis of the business model is an important process for all activities. It is also an interesting activity that can be, quite often, both motivating and frustrating. The challenge lies in driving the activities forward, at the same time managing both internal and external changes, which means that some plans turn out better than expected – while others do not go as well.

The business plan process is about juggling the options. To – without disrupting customer assignments in progress – introduce change activities and resources that develop the business towards its strategic goals.
Continuously developing your business model is a necessity. The ability to change and adjust to new conditions is a challenge for all businesses, but also a process that makes some winners and others losers.
