Companies setting up joint ventures,  don’t always help themselves.

They draw-up heads of agreement, but tend to adopt a one size (theirs) fits all policy: they are surprised when their partners, agents and clients follow their own rules.

It’s often not just knowing the answers, but knowing the right questions to ask, and anticipating where problems might arise.

It may be as simple  as knowing who to pick up the phone to when glitches occur. Or understanding whether business is relationship or systemic based.

That’s where our alliance with International House comes in.

It has over 25 years experience with 140 centres in 50 countries which, combined with our 45 years of working around the World, setting-up and running joint ventures, brings  to you unrivalled knowledge and experience.

We normally carry out a series of short targeted interventions aimed at meeting your precise needs in your key markets.

For UK based companies, we can provide the parameters and expertise to know what is required and to think internationally.

For those coming to the UK we can provide training in British business culture.

We operate at Board of Director, Board of Management and department level to advise on the national pitfalls of contract negotiations and agreements and focus on optimising team performance in international operations.

Mergers and acquisitions follow a similar pattern, but need to be tailored to your needs, especially taking in to account whether this is taking place with domestic or foreign companies.
