Whether reviewing your current plans and activity or creating a plan for your organisation we can help you review and implement an appropriate approach.
Many organisations don’t know where to start with their environmental or sustainability activity. Increasing regulations, increasing customer, shareholder, stakeholder and employee pressure, changing technologies, changing terminology, identifying and tracking data and KPIs, broadening of the agenda to include tangible social value action, all these make the implementation of an environmental plan a challenge. Allow us to help.
We start by talking to internal (and if you’d like external) stakeholders we identify where you are today and what the opportunities (and benefits) there are for you into the future looking short, medium and long-term.
Our approach is commercially focused in ensuring we keep your business imperative, the views of your clients and the relationship to effective return on investment front and centre. Your plan has to make business sense to be implementable and has to be customer centric.
Our advice can include;
- Specific review of current plans and gap analysis to potential desired ‘to be’ states
- Commercial opportunities, these maybe existing or ideas which need developing. This includes target sectors/markets, clients, personas, marketing campaign options
- A review of your services, their differentiators in the market and how to develop your competitive offering
- Competitor reviews
- Partners and acquisition options
- Leadership – do you have the right leadership capability? What barriers in leadership exist and how can they be overcome?
- People – opportunities to recruit or develop capability for success. Capability gaps and opportunities
- Organisational review – internal barriers or process improvement opportunities
- Establishing appropriate baselines of current performance and KPIs moving forward
We apply a high level of emotional intelligence, fun and challenge to our work. We will be honest and transparent in our findings, be clear on our advice and your recommended next steps and take your internal teams with us on the journey as they need to own and implement any recommendations we make.

Case Study – global maritime consultancy environmental diversification.
Empowered2 undertook a project over ~1 month to review the opportunity for a 10x improvement in the revenue of a UK team within a global consultancy. Our work involved 20+ stakeholder consultations with sales, technical, marketing, leadership and support services. We also conducted a competitor, partner, acquisition and potential recruitment reviews. We delivered our findings to the consulted stakeholders, C-suite and other key leaders. Recommendations included adjustments to current activity to maximise win rate and profitability and then 4 key high level themes for success moving forward with identified sectors, clients and campaigns based on macro market drivers. New potential employees were identified to increase capability and bring further value to existing services and position for high value activity into the future with a clear revenue road map to their desired target.
