IGNITION Case Studies
01
A fast growth Tech company had experienced hypergrowth as first mover in the B2C space, but new entrants had slowed their growth. Ignition Institute led a multi-year engagement to clarify their strategy, coach a leadership group and bring heightened cohesion to the team. By using core competencies to develop a B2B proposition, the company went from behind the 8 ball to reach a successful 4x exit.
02
A holding company was facing increasing competition, locally, online and from international imports. A CEO, looking for a winning strategy, brought in Ignition to work with the leaders of the portfolio companies to align around a strategy and generate a rhythm of execution. Growth is accelerating, leaders and their strategies are strengthening with maturity. This has stood them in good stead during Covid 19 times.
03
Across multiple owners and 6 years, Ignition worked with a portable sanitation services company to get their organization clear regarding strategy, that took them to being a national site services company, aligned and ready for sale. A culture survey uncovered a need for deeper cohesion. Ignition convened the gamut of leadership, from in-the-field leaders through the C-Suite, to build leadership skills and team dynamics. By taking a very pragmatic approach to strategy development, Ignition reached just “enough” clarity, cohesion and discipline for them to move through two highly successful exits.
04
A successful family owned facilities management company had organically grown for decades. They now wanted to define their next stage of growth—doubling $1 billion to $2 billion in quality revenue in 5 years. Ignition Institute did deep immersion interviews to understand the current situation—where the opportunities and challenges lay. Ignition worked with the leadership to define their next ambition, and established a clarity and momentum to push the strategy into execution. Ignition highlighted a blind spot, which has been very significant—the importance of diversity: diversity of gender, cultural heritage, age, thinking style and much more. Relentlessly pushing strategy into execution, the company made massive strides in 6 months. By embedding the disciplines in the leadership and beyond, the Ignition process rapidly unleased substantial performance uplift in the first few months.
