The secret to a rowing team’s win lies not in its rowers’ individual superhuman strengths, but in every rower paddling ardently to the same heartbeat in the same direction.

Similarly, a business excels when its teams wholeheartedly agree a goal, fully appreciate all the moving parts contributing to achieving said goal, and align their actions and thinking to support the company’s direction.

Great things are not done by impulse, but by a series of small things brought together.” Vincent van Gogh

Our consultants work with you as One Team

Your Consultants

One Rudder consultants are proven business leaders and experienced advisors on your side. We have led companies in the midst of strategy setting, operating model redesign, productivity improvements, systems implementations, acquisitions, divestitures, joint ventures, new products and markets launches. We are the brains and the hands, the teachers and the doers, your experts and your partners; we’ll be here from project conception through to success celebration.

Our Philosophy:
• We will challenge your thinking: We will ask tough questions to help you look at your business differently, we will bring industry knowledge and the know-how to execute, but most importantly, we will challenge you to design a solution with us that works for your business. We are not a resource augmentation firm, we are skilled at analysis, design and execution, and we help you succeed with the art and science of business transformation.
• We believe business has no role for heroes: Progress should not depend on heroic efforts, progress should not be accidental, progress should be carefully willed, collaboratively planned, and mindfully achieved.
• We will not be back doing the same project: While our work is projectized, we work hand-in-hand with your team to build the knowledge and methodology to lead the thinking next time you are at a similar juncture; besides, we build solutions that stick.
