Turnarounds & Restructuring
Turnarounds and restructurings are highly complex and occasionally chaotic processes. They often involve numerous parties, significant planning and analysis and a high degree of coordination among numerous work streams. For most client management teams, this is unfamiliar territory. Charis Advisory Group team members have spent the majority of our careers working in this environment, and we have numerous successes in supporting and guiding management groups through it.
As a boutique strategy consulting firm, we help you break through bureaucratic inertia to build world-class capabilities and drive real change. We assist C-Suite executives in moving quickly to decision and action by pinpointing business problems, identifying root causes and suggesting action steps.
We survey relationships with elected officials, boards of directors and organizations within the community. We also understand the relationship between administration and politics. Our solutions are accompanied by a sophisticated political mapping evaluation.

OPERATIONAL IMPROVEMENT
Organizations often face underlying strategic challenges and cost or process issues that cause their businesses to deteriorate. These can arise from internal and external sources and are often not readily apparent. Our team is experienced at identifying the root causes of an enterprise’s deterioration and developing and implementing solutions to address them, improving the short- and long-term prospects of the business.
METRICS, MEASUREMENT & ACCOUNTABILITY
Big data and advanced analytics are creating profound new opportunities for businesses, yet less than 5% of companies are able to combine the right people, tools, data and organizational focus to take advantage of these opportunities. To realize the value of big data, organizations need strategic – and not merely technological – solutions. We use our strategy experience and analytical expertise to help you build the right capabilities so that you can mine data for insights that will result in better decisions and create more value.
