Mentorship and consulting Services
In today’s complex business environment,
entrepreneurs often need to supplement
their own skills and experience with
specialist knowledge in order to remain
competitive. Business mentorship and
consulting services enable them to do
just that.
An established practice world-wide,
business consulting enables companies to
contract specialist advisers on an ad
hoc basis to advice on all aspects of
business management. Amongst others,
these include strategy, development
planning, systems development and
implementation, problem diagnosis and
financial management.
Mentorship and consulting Services
The mentors and consultants contracted
by the unit are carefully selected
individuals with proven track records in
their areas of expertise. They undergo
rigorous screening before being
accredited and support the mission of
the group’s mentorship and consulting
programme. This is to harness the
expertise, skills and wisdom of senior
business and professional people and to
make their services available to South
Africa’s burgeoning small and medium
enterprise sectors.
General business mentorship and
consulting
The service provides the entrepreneur
with access to general business
mentorship as and when needed. Mentors
and consultants provide a holistic
service, encompassing the full spectrum
of business management. They are able to
advice on and assist with basic,
practical business functions, as well as
to provide coaching, customized
solutions, implementation assistance and
even investigations, if needed.
Specialist mentorship and consulting
As the name implies, the service
provides more specialized assistance
with specific management functions such
as budgeting, administration, credit
control, cash flow management,
information systems development,
marketing, human resources management,
production, expansion planning,
construction, accounting and taxation.
Specialist mentors and consultants are
assigned when professional expertise,
not available internally, is required
for a short period of time.
Turnaround management
Every business goes through rough
patches and sometimes entrepreneurs may
require assistance when they are
experiencing difficulties in their
business. More often than not, these
have a serious impact on the financial
stability of the business and outside
assistance is required to sustain
profitability.
In cases like these the Mentorship and
Consulting Services is able to provide
the entrepreneur with either a mentor or
consultant to assist the entrepreneur in
turning the business around.
Turnaround initiatives may be either
short- or medium-term interventions and
require the structuring of a contractual
agreement for the period of intervention
