Key Values

Takashi has prided itself on personal, high-productivity consulting and project engagements for more than 10 years.  Our primary business motivators are:

Managing Complexity
Experienced with large (and small) organisation complexity, change management issues and politics – we believe in keeping things simple and delivering.

Focusing on Business Value
We'd like to believe that have a knack for finding new ways to transform management goals into realities.

Focusing on Achievable Goals
Simply put, define achievable goals for your organisation, then get them done.

Remaining Flexible and Casual
Big telco, big banks are great.  We like working in this area a lot.  But we know that business success does not always have to be so structured and stringent.

Finding New Challenges
We tend to specialise in hard-to-complete projects, cross-functional or cross-department challenges, ultra-short timelines, and being able to directly connect management to solutions.

Being the Devil's Advocate
We like to challenge assumptions with successful strategies from other markets, alternate and sometimes crazy ideas, to think through new internal processes and to help banks and telcos find new niches for differentiation.
