Grow without sacrificing profitability with the Growth Horizons Model
In 6 weeks we close your EBIT growth gap by aligning short-term savings, mid-term growth, and long-term innovation into one clear roadmap.
The real reason your EBIT goals stay out of reach
You run cost-cutting and growth projects, yet EBIT targets still slip.
Everyone has ideas, often driven by hype and opinion.
Short-term savings don’t move the needle.
Long-term bets feel too risky.
Innovation and profitability pull in opposite directions.
The result: no clear path to profitable growth.
The Growth Horizons Model brings structure to uncertainty
Through four focused strategy sessions in six weeks, you’ll:
See your real EBIT growth gap.
Build a concrete plan to close it.
Know which initiatives to start, stop, or scale.
Align short-term efficiency with long-term innovation.
Focus resources on what truly moves the needle.
Find gems that achieve multiple goals (for example cost savings and growth) at once.
Four strategy sessions. One clear roadmap.
I work with leadership teams to close the EBIT growth gap.
EBIT Growth Gap
Define your Closable EBIT Growth Gap
What we do: Align on 3–5 year EBIT ambition. Map all current initiatives. Classify into cost savings, revenue growth, and long-term bets. Model likely outcomes using Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG). Quantify the gap between ambition and reality.
Outcome: A “closable EBIT growth gap” with a realistic new target. A baseline model everyone trusts. Clear problem framing for the next days.
Horizon 1
Short-term Savings and Quick Wins
What we do: Identify and pressure-test savings levers and quick wins. Prioritise by impact, confidence, and time to value. Evaluate alternatives with AI and swarm intelligence. Assign owners, milestones, KPIs.
Outcome: A 12-month savings & quick wins plan with committed owners. Monthly KPI dashboard. First wave of no-regret moves ready to start.
Horizon 2
Mid-term Growth and Innovation
What we do: Build a portfolio of new product and service bets. Size markets, model unit economics, define stage gates. Decide which resources to shift from ongoing to new initiatives (start, stop, freeze, scale, align).
Outcome: A 24–36 month growth pipeline. Clear resourcing plan. Stage-gated roadmap with success metrics and stop rules.
Horizon 3
Disruption and Future Bets
What we do: Define a disruption thesis for the Quantum-AI-world. Explore option bets, partnerships, and technology scouts. Set up small experiments with capped risk. Drawing a 5+ years options portfolio.
Outcome: Learning agenda and experiment budget. A shortlist of topics that should be monitored and tested, as well as resource allocation for building future capabilities.
