services include:
Client
Profile
Raven
has worked with hundreds of clients in business, government
and non-profit sectors. We've worked in different industries,
in different stages of organizational development (from
conceptual stage, to start-ups, to growing companies, to
mature companies), of different sizes, and in different
locations.
You
don't hire any consultant. We don't take on just any client.
We are
passionate about our work and we look for clients who have
a passion for their work or at least a desire to return
to a level of passion that once existed.
We are
dedicated to our clients and we look for clients who are
willing to do the critical thinking, have the courage to
make the hard decisions and committed to fulfilling their
potential.
We are
honest, ethical and fair in our relationships and we look
for client's whose values and principles
are comparable to our own.
Approach
Our
approach to creating sustainable organizations is based
on the expertise we've gained in nearly 30 years of management
consulting and environmental planning.
This
experience allows us to quickly grasp issues and apply lessons
from dozens of industries.
Our
processes are probably not that different from other quality-driven,
customer-focused consultants who work collaboratively with
their clients.
We seek
to understand our clients' concerns and aspirations. Before
starting work we are adamant about agreeing on the objective
of the assignment, understanding the value of achieving
the outcome, agreeing on how project progress will be measured,
identifying the methodologies that will be used, stipulating
a schedule, determining the relative contributions of each
party, and specifying the terms and conditions of the contracted
work.
The
methodologies we employ are varied and are tailored to the
particular requirements of the assignment. Methods may include
staff interviews, client surveys, facilitated retreats,
training sessions, market research, focus groups, site visits,
environmental audits, financial reviews, benchmarking and
other tools.
Strategic
Alliances
We are
experts in sustainability and business management. We don't
claim to be experts in all matters.
For
many projects we will assemble a team of individuals or
companies who have the exact expertise that is needed for
the particular assignment. These experts may come from a
variety of fields: such as, process engineers, graphic designers,
public relations specialists, trainers, packaging designers,
web site developers, copywriters, photographers and other
professionals.
We work
with leading companies whose values and work ethic are comparable
to our own. We are continually looking to ally Raven with
other industry leaders and experts.

us if you would like additional information on how our
services may benefit your organization.
