WHY WE ARE BETTER

HOW IS THE ASCENDANT CONSORTIUM BETTER THAN A LARGE CONSULTING FIRM OR AGENCY? 

We have a breakthrough model of consulting which large firms simply can't match.

Large consulting companies were founded 30+ years ago and built for a 20th century economy, not today's knowledge economy. In a production economy it made sense to gather related expertise under one roof. In a knowledge economy it is far more efficient to have that expertise in many places, where it can be tapped into only when needed.

Where do you find groundbreaking ideas? Over 70% of the contributors to Harvard Business Review hail from small, independent consulting firms. Fully half of these thought leaders are in solo consultancies. By contrast, only 18% of the contributors came from big name mega-consultancies. We find the best and the brightest, not the intelligent and conformist.

Thanks to new technology, primarily the Internet, breakthrough thinkers in independent firms can be tapped just as easily as large firms. Consultants are the business version of iPhone apps. The best ideas win out. You are no longer forced to turn to mega-consultants to access talent. It's all right here at the Ascendant Consortium.

A large company may have great thinking and process expertise at the top, but it has to migrate that thinking down through the organization and the process will necessarily be implemented with varying levels of proficiency. When you bring in one of our consultants, on the other hand, you are the person who knows the process inside and out, and who knows how to apply it.

The team of super-smart, talented individuals a large firm would put on your project is not carefully selected to create the most value for you. Most of them are selected because the firm has extra capacity and needed to assign them to the next project that came up. Whoops, that's yours! With the Ascendant Consortium we have no excess capacity to worry about. You get the best team and only the best team to meet your needs.
