Success Stories

"We have used Skiba Consulting for several business planning activities over the past three years. Skiba Consulting provided a planning process that was customized to our specific needs, challenged us to look at our business from a different perspective, and balanced the different aspects of our business. The results have been a clear vision for our future, specific goals and metrics to achieve our vision, and a management team focused on those activities that will make the biggest difference."

Bette Fetter, Founder and CEO Young Rembrandts

"The sustainability planning process pulled together the aspects of doing the right thing, saving money, and marketing opportunities.  We expect to save money by decreasing water use by 50% and energy use by 15% in the next year.  We also discovered that our recycled antifreeze generates only 20% of the greenhouse gases generated by virgin antifreeze, which creates a marketing opportunity to companies where being green is important.  We found that Zbig was no nonsense, organized, and understood how to take us through the planning process, which is what you hope a consultant will bring to the table."

STRATEGIC & BUSINESS PLANNING

• One Page Business Plan™ (Learn more ...)

For planning, we utilize a powerful yet simple internet-enabled planning process, The One Page Business Plan™ (864 KB PDF), that quickly creates a road map for moving forward. A plan can be created for each of level of the organization, e.g. departments, divisions, factories, and other organizational units. All supporting plans are aligned to the Organization plan and to each other, and progress can be tracked via online scorecards and progress reports.

• High level Sustainability Assessment (Learn More ...)

The assessment consists of brainstorming sessions with knowledgeable managers; to identify environmental and social aspects within the company, at its vendors and at customers. We quickly zero in on those aspects that provide the greatest environmental, social, and financial benefits. When necessary, we may dig deeper to define the specific scale and scope of the problem.
