Consultancy for growth, strategy and execution
For business owners, successors and leaders who want greater control over growth, strategy and execution.
Growing revenue, larger teams and greater responsibility bring challenges that will not resolve themselves. Many organisations stall because they lack clear direction, ownership and execution.
Ei Openers consultancy helps business owners, successors and leaders make clearer decisions on strategy, sales, business development, succession, growth and process improvement.
We identify the bottleneck, make choices and agree who will do what, by when. Then we help track delivery and adjust the approach, drawing on our network when needed.
Practical experience: > 150 businesses supported with OGSM. Dozens of one-to-one sessions each year with leaders and emerging talent from a wide range of businesses.
Take the leadership scan to identify where leadership in your business needs attention.
What you can expect
Our consultancy combines clear thinking, honest challenge and practical support. We uncover what is getting in the way and help turn decisions into action.
A clear diagnosis
Where is the real bottleneck? We look at figures, processes and strategy, alongside behaviour, interests, collaboration and underlying dynamics.
Decisions on one page
We create focus: what is the objective, which goals support it and which actions need to happen now?
Execution and follow-up
Clear ownership, a working rhythm, follow-up and practical steps that people can see in the organisation.
Many organisations have plenty of ideas.
What they lack is direction, ownership and execution. Plans exist, ambitions are clear and everyone sees opportunities. Yet day-to-day progress remains slow.
We help sharpen decisions, bring people with you and turn plans into results, from business development and sales to succession, acquisitions, OGSM and new markets.

When does consultancy help?
When your challenge is too specific for standard training and too important to leave unresolved.
Your business grows, but the organisation struggles to keep up
More customers, people and responsibility call for clearer choices, better meeting structures and greater ownership.
The plan is ready, but delivery stalls
We look at working rhythms, roles, priorities, behaviour, underlying dynamics and the discipline to stay with your decisions.
The market changes faster than your organisation can respond
We help with market choices, positioning, business development, commercial focus and concrete next steps.
Succession, roles or ownership remain unresolved
We make expectations, decision-making, authority, trust and collaboration between generations clear and manageable.
Visible structures and underlying dynamics
Consultancy rarely concerns strategy, figures or processes alone. Behaviour, trust, status, autonomy, loyalty, decision-making and established patterns often play a part too.
We consider visible structures and underlying dynamics together to reach the heart of the challenge sooner and support better decisions.
How we work
The detail depends on your challenge. The movement is usually the same: clarify, choose, turn decisions into action and follow through.
Introduction and diagnosis
We clarify the challenge, context, people involved, underlying dynamics and desired outcome.
Choices and approach
We identify the decisions, roles, actions, meeting structures or market steps needed.
Execution and follow-up
We sustain progress through a working rhythm, ownership, reflection and concrete follow-up.

Frequently asked questions
When should I choose consultancy rather than a programme or training?
Choose consultancy for a specific, strategic or organisation-wide challenge, such as growth, succession, market development, OGSM, process improvement or culture that needs to be addressed in your own context.
Does Ei Openers provide advice or ongoing guidance?
Both, always with a practical focus. We advise, offer honest feedback, clarify decisions and help turn them into execution, with concrete follow-up.
Can you help with business succession?
Yes. Our focus is on the human and strategic aspects: roles, trust, authority, decision-making, communication, ownership and execution.
Do you support international market development?
Yes. Our one-stop-shop approach supports market entry from initial exploration to an independently operating local business, including local partners, accounting, HR and recruitment. Our team brings a network and experience on every continent. Poland is a particular strategic focus.
Can you work with our management team or wider team?
Yes. Consultancy may start individually, but we often work with directors, management teams, key people or teams to turn decisions into behaviour, working rhythms and execution.
What does consultancy cost?
That depends on scope, complexity, the people involved and the level of support required. After an introduction, we prepare a tailored proposal.
Can we simply use you as a sounding board?
Yes. Sometimes one focused conversation is enough to find direction; sometimes it leads to further support. We always start by exploring the question behind your question.
