FAQs – Global Strategy Consulting & Internationalisation Advisory

Please contact us via our contact page if you cannot find an answer to your question.

We work with multinationals, governments, public institutions, universities, NGOs, and mission-driven organisations. Our clients range from senior executives and strategy leads to boards and cross-border project managers who are responsible for driving international growth and partnerships. 


We specialise solely in global strategy and internationalisation, blending 25+ years of experience with proprietary frameworks, cultural intelligence, and systems thinking. 


We adapt our approach to your organisations context, culture, and level of global readiness.  


Our work spans multiple sectors, including technology, pharma, finance, manufacturing, higher education, research, tourism, hospitality, and wellness. We adapt our approach to your context, culture, and level of global readiness. 


Our experience shows that most clients benefit significantly from our advice and services. If you're working long hours, struggling to focus on core business activities, bogged down with administration, or neglecting customers or lead generation, it's time to consider optimizing your operations with our support.

No. While we partner with major multinationals and governments, we also support SMEs, universities, and NGOs that want to build sustainable global capability. 


We work with clients worldwide. While we’re based in Barcelona, Spain, we regularly support organisations across Europe, Africa, Asia, and the Americas—both virtually and on-site.  


Both. We can provide short, focused audits and strategy reviews or long-term advisory retainers and capability-building partnerships 


Yes. We support organisations at all stages of internationalisation—from those building their first global strategy to those refining and scaling mature international operations. 


Absolutely. We often partner with internal teams, boards, or other advisory firms to provide an independent second opinion, cultural intelligence, or specialist internationalisation expertise.  


 We follow a structured 5‑step process—Analyse, Identify, Advise, Empower, Execute—powered by our 3‑Tier Global Competence Model™ and GLOBAL™ Framework. This ensures solutions are practical, measurable, and sustainable. 


 We co-design everything with you, tailoring strategies, frameworks, and training to your sector, culture, and goals—no one-size-fits-all templates. 


It’s our proprietary framework for building lasting global capability in three stages:


  • Tier 1 – Awareness: Building cultural literacy and geopolitical understanding
  • Tier 2 – Skills: Developing practical cross-border leadership and negotiation capability
  • Tier 3 – Acumen: Embedding strategic foresight and governance for sustainable international success
     

This model underpins all our training, strategy, and advisory work—helping organisations move beyond surface-level awareness to real strategic global competence.


 The GLOBAL™ Framework is our end-to-end methodology for designing, executing, and sustaining international strategies.


It covers six strategic pillars—Ground, Locate, Operationalise, Build, Activate, and Lead, ensuring every engagement moves from clear analysis to practical implementation and measurable outcomes.


It begins with a diagnostic or discovery session, followed by a clear roadmap with milestones, deliverables, and timelines. We involve your team at the right levels to ensure ownership and alignment.  


All three. We’re fully flexible and will recommend what’s best for your team’s needs and budget.  


You can expect clarity, capability, and measurable improvements in areas like strategy alignment, operational effectiveness, partnership success, and risk mitigation.


 We define clear success indicators at the start of every engagement—whether it’s improved cross-border governance, leadership capability, stakeholder trust, or market-entry outcomes. 

 


You’ll have a dedicated senior consultant as your single point of contact, supported by our extended advisory network when needed. 

 

We will work together collaboratively, transparently, and with adaptable. We bring clarity and structure while staying flexible to your organisation’s needs. 


All our solutions are tailored to your needs, scale, and delivery model. Costs are transparent and agreed upfront. Pricing depends on whether the engagement is a short, focused diagnostic or a multi-month advisory and capability-building partnership.  


We focus on reducing risk, improving operational efficiency, strengthening partnerships, and unlocking growth opportunities, which deliver both tangible and strategic ROI 


Yes. We regularly respond to RFPs for internationalisation strategy, capability-building programmes, and cross-border advisory work. Please email us with your detailed requirements. 


We welcome strategic partnerships with aligned organisations, especially in education, government, and global capacity-building initiatives. If you’d like to explore collaboration, please contact us. 


We occasionally look for experienced associates, trainers, and facilitators for project-based work. If you’d like to be considered, email us with your CV and area of expertise. 


We focus solely on global strategy and internationalisation—bringing proprietary frameworks, cultural intelligence, and 25+ years of cross-sector experience into every engagement. We’re not generalists; we’re your global specialists. 


It begins with a free consultation to understand your needs and identify where we can create the most value. From there, we’ll co-design a clear plan aligned with your goals
