Advisory
Business Transformation:
GSA works with both private and public sector clients to transform their enterprises into high performance enterprises. GSA ensures the seamless interplay between corporate strategy, business architecture development and the supporting business processes. GSA understands that the enterprise that fields the best people will most likely be successful in achieving its business goals. As a result, GSA places emphasis on the process for recruiting, training, and retaining the best people for an organization. GSA work in this area covers training, performance management, and remuneration strategy. In addition, GSA works closely with top management and business unit owners to manage the communication and change process during a transformation to ensure buyin from all stakeholders.
Business Process Management
Government Transformation:
GSA has developed very successful public-private partnership models to deliver e-Government initiatives. These models recognize the challenges faced by government agencies and parastatals and evolve effective strategies for navigating around them while delivering agreed results.
Financial Advisory:
This business unit offers financial advisory services to its clients including financial restructuring, access to capital, and venture capital structures. GSA actively seeks out businesses that are in growth industries, have good management, but are returning sub-optimal results. GSA works with the management team to rethink the business model, processes, people, and technology, and creates access to capital to fuel the proposed growth. GSA commits its own capital to the opportunity and ensures that the management team invests a significant part of their net worth to the business. GSA takes a long term view of such investments. In addition, where there is a market opportunity and there are no well-run businesses in the space, GSA Financial Advisory incubates a business to fill the void, and recruits top management to run the business. To ensure alignment of goals, remuneration for such management team has a significant equity-participation component.
Employee Transformation:
Finance and HR functions are typically at the sharp end during any market turbulence. GSA’s capacity for formulating leading-edge strategies for increasing the effectiveness of finance and HR departments, along with our strength in organizational model design enables organizations to decrease costs and boost performance quickly.
