Business consulting services

KONA offers a pragmatic, real world approach to solving your business, people and revenue challenges. We are business development professionals that focus on practical solutions and measurable and sustainable results, who improve your execution of plans by implementing diagnostic assessments, business performance consulting, training & development and ongoing coaching programme's that deliver tangible outcomes and ROI.

We specialise in the following areas;

Diagnostic Assessments

We can help you understand exactly where you are from an organisational, team or workgroup, and individual standpoint. This is the first stage of planning for the future - knowing where currently stand. A critical phase of the KONA Group’s approach is to diagnose before prescription. We have an extensive range of diagnostic tools to assess the current capability of an organisation or individual and to establish the desired performance benchmark.

Our organisational assessment process examines a company's culture and provides valuable insights to the alignment of workgroups and management with the company's objectives and goals. At a more granular level, our workgroup assessments can be used as a roadmap for developing highly engaged workgroups as well as enhancing individual employee satisfaction. Our employee assessments range from MBTI, DISC, TMP and Profile Plus, each providing insights to individual communication styles, management styles and preferences, task and role preferences, and provide the necessary benchmark and tools to effectively manage and cultivate high performance employees.

Business Performance Consulting

Our business performance consulting is about developing operational and growth strategies that deliver measurable value to your business. Whether you're targeting individual employee development, workgroup performance, or seeking new market penetration, KONA's capabilities will equip your management team and staff with the knowledge and behaviours to meet the challenges of tomorrow.

Training And Development

Do your sales people know where their future business is coming from? Do they consistently generate new opportunities and win negotiations over competing offers. Does your management group effectively cultivate accountable teams that deliver outcomes rather than highlight reasons? Our training and development programme's have been developed to address the needs of organisations seeking world-class learning programme's, and are delivered by real world business improvement specialists. Every member of the KONA team comes from a line management background and understands the difference between simply delivering content from manuals, and delivering results.

Their motivation, direction and activity have all increased…..and we expect our profits to escalate accordingly”

Executive And Sales Coaching

For any business to enjoy sustained success, amongst the many attributes it will need to possess, none will be more critical than a 'climate of accountability and leadership'. For many business owners the responsibility of Leadership is something that 'sneaks up on them'. Few are formally trained to be 'leaders'. From sales coaching, sales management coaching, to leadership coaching and cultural diversity coaching, KONA's coaching programme's enables learning to occur in 'real-life', resulting in tangible improvements in performance.
