An international consulting agency

We are a team of senior specialists with more than 20 years of experience in strategy, customer centricity and leadership with impact. With offices in Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany, and projects across Europe and Asia, we help organisations navigate transformation and unlock sustainable growth.

Our focus is simple: turning ambition into actionable choices and pragmatic execution.

Unlike traditional consulting firms, there are no layers between you and the people doing the work. You get direct access to experienced consultants who have led companies themselves, made tough decisions and know what it takes to deliver, not just advise.

Through a co-creative and hands-on approach, we challenge, support and guide organisations until strategy becomes reality.

We provide tools to make you grow

We have developed more than 50 solutions. They are built to challenge you and your organization, they are pragmatic and lead effectively to actions to achieve results efficiently. These smart methodologies that are simple, easy to use and effective, take away your business pains. The large toolbox is based on over 400 years of business experience. All these tools are co-creative and make us stronger together. Check out some tools here and feel free to challenge us. 

We go beyond training

Training is not the end goal, changing habits and improved performance is. Our experts with more than 15-20 years of experience do not just train, they steer the participants to solutions. We recommend a long term training approach to make change happen. Be inspired by our training programs covering our 4 domains: actionable strategy, engaged people, sales and marketing excellence, operational excellence.

We create movement together

We believe sustainable growth starts with people. That is why we work side by side with our customers to turn ambition into action, build internal ownership and create lasting impact.

Although we were already familiar with OGSM, Bart brought a fresh and highly practical perspective. He challenged us to make sharper strategic choices and focus on what really matters.

It was a pleasure to work with Bart from Business Markers. Bart quickly adapted to the specific needs and challenges of Top-Jumps. Not easy in the international niche market of equestrian events.

The Business Markers rocket export model and Bram’s expert advice, really helped us determine a clear international strategy and action plan for Verhofsté’s bike mobility solutions, steel constructions and public toilets.

Marc Verhofsté

CEO

We did an OGSM exercise with Business Markers 3 years ago, this helped us make the right strategic choices. This year, we decided to do the exercise again and adjust where necessary. OGSM helps our team understand the business objective and goals in a simple way, but at the same time gives clarity at the departmental level on who should do what, and by when.

Show

Laurent Van Laere

CEO Herock

Formalising our OGSM with Lucia, Serge and the marketing and brand team was so impactful in driving alignment and clear communications across countries and functions, that it soon resulted in repeating the exercise on company level. Since then the OGSM has been our key North Star in budget, project, town hall and work planning meetings.

Joost Vastenavondt

Under the pleasant guidance of Ides, we were able to redefine our strategic plan.

It was a special experience and we are very satisfied with the result: our teams are enthusiastic and eager to put the words into action.

As a fast-growing start-up, we were looking for a strategic framework that was both practical and executable.
