As one of the world’s premier corporate strategy consulting firms, Oliver Wyman helps leading enterprises develop, build, and operate strong businesses that deliver sustained shareholder value growth. We look at strategy from the "outside in," finding strategic insight through a robust understanding of current and future customer priorities. We harness thought leadership in the areas below to deliver breakthrough recommendations to clients.
Growth Strategy and Corporate Portfolio
Oliver Wyman helps clients make critical strategic choices that set the agenda for the enterprise and maximize value. We work with our clients to ensure they get the most out of their portfolio of businesses and to build the businesses they need using proprietary tools like our Interactive Strategy Models® methodology and framework.
Non-Organic Growth and M&A
Although half of all mergers fail to deliver growth and value creation, M&A combined with strong post-merger integration (PMI) capabilities can be highly effective for creating value growth. M&A activity is increasingly being driven by strategic reasons rather than consolidation and cost cutting.
Performance Improvement
Attempts to improve performance are often incomplete, resulting in hard-won but ultimately unsustainable shifts in performance. Oliver Wyman takes a holistic perspective that recognizes and leverages the interconnectedness of your business design (starting with the customers you choose to serve through to your assets, activities, and organization) to deliver fundamental, sustainable improvement. Oliver Wyman uses proprietary tools like its Interactive Strategy Models® methodology and framework to help clients maximize the efficiency, effectiveness, and impact of their businesses.
Business Design and Innovation
Success today requires a new mindset involving a customer-centric not a product-centric focus, an expansive view of opportunity, and a dynamic perspective on the future market environment. Oliver Wyman calls this mindset the discipline of Business Design, and we use it to consistently create new value for clients.
Strategic Planning
Strategic planning has become a sterile annual exercise that managers endure, but a few leading companies are creating value through strategic managing by linking strategy and execution. Oliver Wyman assists its clients in reliably crafting and implementing winning strategies by helping them follow 10 identified best practices and move from strategic planning to strategic managing.
