Manager, Corporate Strategy
Business Strategy is concerned with the guidance of companies and organizations through key decision-making crossroads, while understanding the company, its' assets and capabilities, as well as the business environment in which it operates.
A strategic process is an in-depth process at the end of which, business alternatives the company faces in view of its' situation and the state of the market in which it operates, become clearer.

An intensive, focused process, in which the company confronts dilemmas it comes up against while being led, accompanied and instructed by BDO; and which fundamentally relies on existing company's information and data. During this process, areas in which the company is missing information may be further explored by the team of consultants.
The BDO team is experienced in retrieving company information, challenging existing work presumptions, analyzing and modeling information using strategic tools, preparing discussions, leading and instruction, process summarizing and product presentation
Turnaround Plan
An intensive and focused process adapted for companies under crisis – occurring both as a result of events in the business environment or as a result of internal management issues.
The process focuses on four parallel action axes: increasing revenue based on the current situation, refining key areas of opportunity (market, product, clientele, technologies) and focused investment, significant reduction of expenses (sometimes by changing the working model) and selling assets.
