Title: Business Model Re-Engineering

Description: 25% of Profitability in every business goes unrealized. Business model re-engineering is about rethinking existing business methods, processes, and attitudes toward customers, employee’s and suppliers. It starts from a “clean sheet of paper”. It is not about marginal improvement…it is about reinvention rather than evolution.

The top organizational benefits realized through this process are

  • Increased revenue
  • Customer retention & service
  • Reduced costs
  • Business insights – ability to be pro-active
  • New product innovation
  • Employee retention

Key Takeaways:

  • Increasing revenue
  • Decreasing cost
  • Increasing enterprise value

Speaker Bio:

As the leader of the Grant Thornton Canada National Consulting business, I specialize in change management—specifically, re-engineering organizational business processes to improve business insights and performance.

In the past, I’ve held many functional roles in both industry and consulting environments, including Chief Operating Officer, Chief Executive Officer, Partner and Owner/Operator. I’ve worked for large and small public organizations, family-owned operations, partnerships and private equity-led environments across many sectors, including manufacturing, distribution, consumer products, consulting and technology. I have also personally led acquisitions, divestitures, sales and integrations, as well as raised debt and equity.

This broad-ranged experience has made me attuned to the real-life impact of existing processes and frameworks. As a result, I have the expertise to help companies define their desired end-state, reverse-engineer their work streams and processes, and identify the best resources and technologies to accelerate their desired transformations.
