  • Asset Management Audit

    Asset management isn’t just for asset-heavy businesses—it’s a powerful practice for any organization looking to unlock the full potential of its human, digital, and intangible assets.

Even if certification isn’t your goal, operating closer to best practices can enhance efficiency, reduce risk, and secure greater value across your organization.

Positively Painful or Positive ROI?

Imagine your biggest business headache or desired outcome for a moment. If it is costing you money--and it surely is--you have a choice:


  1. Pain: Continue to incur the cost, difficulty, and worry indefinitely, dollar after dollar, day after painful day (Note: your employees & clients will continue to feel it, too!)
  2. Positive Return on Investment: Invest some portion of that cost up front to address the issue and actually get something for your money


Visualizing the Options: A Simple Example

Let's imagine that headache is costing you $50,000 / year in additional expense, or the failure to introduce that new widget is costing you as much in lost revenue. Let's also imagine that for $100,000 you can address the problem once and for all. You don't need a PhD to see that the help pays for itself in two years and then you're making money, to say nothing of all the other perks (e.g. improved employee & customer satisfaction, enhanced reputation or market position, your own happiness & well-being).

Do Not Invest in Some Help

Year Cost / Lost Revenue p.a. Total Cost / Lost Revenue
1 $50,000 $50,000
2 $50,000 $100,000
3 $50,000 $150,000

Losses eventually exceed the cost of the solution, in this case by $50k

Invest in Some Help

Year Cost / Lost Revenue p.a. Total Cost / Lost Revenue
1 $100,000 $100,000
2 $0 $100,000
3 $0 $100,000

The savings will pay for itself, in this case within 2yrs and earns you a 50% ROI within 3yrs.

In other words, you can own the solution and all of its' advantages or choose to not get it and still pay for it through loses.

  • What would the figures look like above for your headache or desired outcome?
  • Can you see where this would save you money and make your life easier?
  • Are you interested in saving money and making your life easier?
  • If you were ever going to start saving money and making your life easier, when do you think would be the best time to start?

Say 'Yes' to a Brighter Future

Yutori


A Japanese term referring to a psychological state of spaciousness. It refers to having enough time and peace of mind to enjoy life without constantly being under pressure.


We all deserve to feel this way.


Take a deep breath and smile, because we can help you get there.

Our Values

While immediate and short-term results are important, significant change takes time to implement and longer still to bear fruit. We seek enduring partnerships that allow us to create a portfolio of transformation with you and set new performance trajectories.


Helping others succeed is what it's all about. By putting people ahead of the problem and focusing on relationships, impressive change is made possible, trust is established, and personal growth and satisfaction amplified.


We are committed to demonstrating continued respect for everyone we work with, for the opportunity to operate within your enterprise, and for the often significant impact of change on diverse stakeholders.


We hold ourselves accountable to helping achieve your goals and delivering genuine value in your eyes, particularly that which is material, measurable, and enduring, while minimizing the disruption to your business.


By continuously improving our personal & professional  capacity to support your success and demonstrate our other principles, we hope to create a portfolio of change with positive externalities and introduce additional ways of adding value.
