Three challenges,
three action plans

What would you like to move forward in four weeks?

EXECUTIVE LEADERSHIP

Improve performance and prepare for growth

Lead times getting longer, margins shrinking or growth opportunities going untapped? Identify which bottlenecks to address and which opportunities to test first.

Operational assessment and action plan

SALES LEADERSHIP

Give your sales teams more time to sell


Duplicate data entry, approvals and handovers eating into selling time? Find the bottlenecks in your lead-to-cash process and the actions that can free up time with customers.

Lead-to-cash assessment and action plan

Your salespeople spend less than a third of their time selling. The rest goes into compensating for problems across the quote-to-cash process: cycles get longer, margins are negotiated internally as well as with customers, and growth depends on the stamina of a few salespeople.

Lead-to-cash assessment and action plan

Also for executive teams seeking an evidence-based view of their sales pipeline before planning for growth.


TRANSFORMATION LEADERSHIP

Give AI adoption a shared direction

AI use is growing, but the benefits remain isolated? Agree which activities to transform, what success requires and which priorities to share with your teams.

AI adoption programme

Your teams already use AI, each in their own way and sometimes without saying so. Benefits remain individual, data risks affect the whole business, and no one can give the executive team a clear picture of progress or where to start.


AI adoption programme


Also relevant when automation is already under way: decide how to use the time freed up, which activities to invest it in and which skills you will need.

“The assessment gathered anonymous feedback from every member of the team and quantified friction in both processes and organisational structures. The analysis is rigorous, never accusatory: it shows where the teams’ energy is being lost and where tools need to be adapted. Everything is quantified and scheduled. It offers practical recommendations. A document that helps you make decisions.”

“We thought our main task was to support adoption of the go-to-market strategy. The assessment revealed something else: the teams understood and supported the strategy. The real cost lay in the execution workload that was absorbing time for sales and service. Almost the entire team spoke openly. We came away with practical actions, several of them at almost no cost.”

Four steps,
in four weeks

Listen to everyone. Analyse in depth. Make decisions together.

Week 01 — Scope

Scope & sponsors

Scope & sponsors

Together, we agree the scope, sponsors, relevant documents and decisions to be made. Your dashboards show how the organisation is performing. The reasons lie in its processes, tools and decisions across departments.

This is where your teams encounter bottlenecks and see opportunities to improve. We agree a fixed fee at the scoping stage.

Week 02 — Listen

Listen & map

Listen & map

Everyone within the agreed scope is invited to an individual, anonymous interview with Aria, by text or voice.

Participants describe how work actually gets done: bottlenecks, workarounds, dependencies between teams, what already works and what they would change. The interviews are consolidated, anonymised and prioritised, then analysed by our partners.

Week 04 — Decide

Your action plan

Your action plan

Your action plan sets out what to tackle, in what order, who is responsible, the budget and expected benefits, including where automation can help. It opens with a five-page executive decision brief, with the supporting evidence in the report and appendices. You make the decisions in a working session with us.
