Our Services
The salience and significance of “knowledge” continuously increases under competitive
market conditions which necessitate life-long learning. It is today imperative that we
strive for sustained acquisition of knowledge for the sake of diversity and renovation.
This state of affairs additionally imply that undistributed, not disseminated and
unapplied knowledge is of little value. One major problematic issue with reference to
knowledge is to render is “applicable” by appropriately transferring knowledge that is
veridical and valid.
At the present, information based technology use is on the rise. This has resulted in
greater need for training for all personnel at even higher levels of skills and
competencies, than half a decade ago. Any training that intends to yield practical and
concrete improvements in personnel performance must have potential for applied use and
must be correctly targeted to the specific needs of the client.

tailored for specific company needs of individual client organizations.
Trainings which are open to general participation and which entail target subjects that
are of interest to all sectors, and trainings which focus on sector-specific issues are
all announced as monthly programs to our clients.
Trainings which are open to general participation, comprise issues such as personal growth
and development, fine tuning of management skills and competencies, leadership, office
management,, human resources management, performance assessment, sales and marketing,
public relations, corporate relations, advertising, foreign trade, accounting, finance,

Management Consulting
Given the state of continuous change and development in world markets, it is imperative
for enterprises and corporations to keep at pace with such change and development by
determining their needs in a proactive manner and to take timely counter-measures.
Our decade long experience in training and consulting gives us an edge in the
applicability and sustainability of results at all stages of training and consulting, and
in the management of programs and projects.
We comply with the following five fundamental stages in all our consulting projects:
Analysis

for consulting support.
Planning
We complete a detailed project plan that indicates the timetable and the methodology of
restoring and reinforcing our client in any deficiencies that may be identified.
Implementation (Execution)
Any project that is agreed on is executed in tandem and in full coordination with our
client, and monitored at each stage.
Training
During project execution, we develop target-specific training for our client in order to
give its staff adequate competencies, skills, and efficacies in relevant subjects.
Follow-Up
All completed projects are followed up in order to guarantee long term sustainability of
our applications.
Our Management Consulting Activities
Human Resources Management Consulting
Global competition is on the increase. This why all enterprises need to re-engineer their
business processes with a central focus on customer satisfaction. Furthermore, customer
satisfaction can only be achieved only after full collaboration is obtained among
“internal customers” who are the employees of the enterprise. Our main objective in
offering human resources management consulting is to shape a new corporate culture that is
conducive for higher level motivation, stronger loyalty and enhanced efficiency for all
employees.
The management aspect of our human resources management consulting involves radical
changes in the organization of our client, to create a truly competitive company and to
maximize customer satisfaction. To this end, we undertake organizational analyses,
redesign of the organization, as well as initiate BPR where necessary and generate novel
rules and regulations as well as principles of compliance. We also train the staff in all
the above issues.
The industrial aspect of our human resources management consulting involves targeting a
corporate culture inside the client organization that is based on effectiveness and
productivity, and that is fully compliant with the provisions of the Labor Law. Within
this conceptual framework, we undertake a redesign of human resources administration, a
re-composition of relevant rules and regulations inside the client company and employ
training so that the staff employed by the client easily internalize the new system.
Monitoring the effectiveness of all stages of these operations, and assessment of all
stages of the above initiatives of change are executed by means of a high number of unique
and purpose-specific assessment instruments.
Marketing And Sales Management Consulting
We undertake specific consulting projects with the objective of increasing the
effectiveness of the marketing and sales efforts of our client companies by means of
improving related organizational structures, and by means of deadline-based efficient
hands-on management of these units. We also restructure the agency and/or franchise
networks our clients may possess and set up incentive procedures in line and integrated
with our client’s corporate identity.
Financial Management Development Consulting
With even greater and more emphatic references to the norms laid down by BASEL II
standards, the credibility, consistency, of financial institutions, and their sustained
compliance with said norms is fast gaining salience for their market performance and
financial success.
Our consulting encompasses projects which focus on financial management planning and on
operational consulting that yields high growth and financial efficiency.
Business Process Engineering (or Re-engineering) And Information Technologies Consulting
An effective management system yields numerous beneficial results, such as a greater
degree of corporate articulation, internalization of the concept of quality, improvement
in the global image of the client corporation, increase in opportunities in global trade,
errorless internal communication among the employees, clearer focus on jobs and functions,
increase in productivity and profits, improved customer satisfaction, reduction in costs,
and enhanced career planning and higher levels of competencies among the staff.
Our consulting services encompass the analysis of the client’s business processes, the
assessment of its IT infrastructure, building appropriate databases, information
networking, revision of reporting formats, design, re-design or re-configuration of the
client’s management systems (ISO 9001, ISO 14001, OHSAS 18001, ISO/TS 16949, HACCP)
design and implementation of procurement and purchase management systems, automation of
post sales services, production and services follow ups, document management, process
performance assessment systems
Procurement, Production Planning, And Logistics Consulting
“Managing Yourself” Individual Growth (Coaching And Mentoring) Consulting
Our objective is to determine and blueprint all the logistics activities of the client
from the point of procurement, to the point of product delivery, to assess present
performance levels, suggest lasting solutions to any problematic issues which may be
observed and to follow-up for sustainability by means of periodical checks and monitoring.
Warehousing, distribution, transport, inventory monitoring, forecasting, procurement,
production planning and control are monitored and assessed in collaboration with
authorized staff of the client. Solution proposals are the end-user deliverables for such
projects.
“Managing Yourself” – Coaching & Mentoring On An Individual Level
In our age, individual mental health is seriously threatened by difficult living
conditions, adverse working environments, a strong sense of isolation resulting from fast
progressing technologies, and from the loss of social support systems.
Our coaching and mentoring services support our clients on a personal level by assisting
them to solve their personal problems, to reduce their level of stress generated by
internal contradictions and inconsistencies, prevent repetition of past errors and assist
them to gain a fresh vision to enhance future success.
In this sense we offer effective coaching and mentoring services to assist our clients to
constructively recognize their past in order to successfully plan for their future.
