03
Lock In
We work with individual team members and/or business units to lock in the aligned execution of the strategy through peer advisory, customized for your unique culture. You get an actionable, ownable business plan framework with complete buy-in.
Examples of Ignition at work

We rekindled growth and sparked a successful exit
A fast growth tech company was experiencing hyper-growth as first mover in the B2C space, but new entrants threatened their success. Ignition Institute lead a multi-year engagement to clarify strategy, coach leadership and bring heightened cohesion to the team. By using existing core competencies to develop a B2B proposition, the company went from falling behind to reaching a successful 4X plus exit.

We ignited a new strategy that has proven resilient in tough times
A holding company was facing increased competition locally, online, and from international imports. A CEO looking for a winning strategy brought in Ignition to work bespoke with the leaders of the portfolio companies to align around a strategy and generate a rhythm of execution. Now, growth is accelerating, leaders, and their strategies are strengthening and maturing. This has stood them in good stead through Covid 19 times.

We fanned the flames of success by unblocking complexity
Across multiple owners over six years, Ignition worked with a sanitation supply company to get their organization clear of strategy, aligned and ready for sale. A culture survey uncovered a need for deeper cohesion. We 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, we reached just ‘enough’ clarity, cohesion, and discipline for them to move through two highly successful exits.

We uncovered opportunities and path for rapid success
A successful family-owned facilities management company had organically grown for decades – they now wanted to define their next stage of growth. Ignition Institute did deep immersion interviews to understand the current situation and to uncover where the opportunities lay. Relentlessly focused on pushing strategy into execution, the company made massive strides in six months. By embedding the disciplines in the leadership team and beyond, the Ignition process rapidly unleashed substantial performance uplift.
