Consultancy

Consultancy is a broad term that covers a range of services. Ask Identity activities focuses on helping individuals, organisations and groups function better. Working with a Consultant means drawing on the wider understanding, experience and skills of a specialist who is used to dealing with a particular set of circumstances. Situations that are outside the usual ‘norms’ can then be met with confidence and assurance – enabling planning rather than experimenting – thus saving time, reducing cost and increasing effectiveness.

“The provision to businesses of objective advice and assistance relating to the strategy, structure, management and operations of an organisation in pursuit of its long-term purposes and objectives. Such assistance may include the identification of options with recommendations; the provision of additional resources; and/or the implementation of solutions.”

The ASK Identity Approach
  • We work with, rather than for you. Your input into the consultancy process is as significant as ours.
  • Once we have designed a process with you, we’ll be flexible about who does what. We realise that, if your budget is tight, you may want to do more of the work.
  • We will draw on knowledge from a range of fields –and offer insights so you can decide whether they are relevant to your context.
  • If, after initial discussions, we feel we can’t help you, we will say so.
  • We only charge for the work we actually do, but If you feel that we have been of benefit from your first consultation meeting and can support you further in your journey then your first two subsequent meetings will be discounted.
