How we can help

01

Start with a 20-minute call

Tell us what you’re trying to achieve, where progress has stalled, and what you’ve already tried. We’ll use the call to see whether Ask Adrian is the right fit and recommend a starting point.

02

Get a clearer view

Understand what is slowing growth or execution. Agree what to address first and who will own it.

03

Fix a specific problem

Improve one workflow, build a usable reporting process, or decide what your next system needs to do.

04

Keep priorities moving

Review performance regularly, make decisions with better information, and follow through on agreed actions.

Evidence and Associative Operation Based Assessment

We look at what your numbers show, how your team works, and where the two tell different stories. That helps us identify what’s holding the business back and decide what to address first.

Evidence

What’s happening in your business?

01 · Start with the facts

We speak with you and the people doing the work, then review the numbers, reports, and processes relevant to the issue. We establish what we can verify and where we need more information before recommending a change.

Connections

What’s driving the problem?

02 · Look across the business

A stalled sales pipeline could point to weak demand, slow quote approvals, or a team that’s already at capacity. We look at how sales, finance, people, and systems affect one another, bringing in specialist expertise where it helps us test an explanation.

Action

What should change first?

03 · Put the improvement to work

We agree on what to fix first, who will own it, and how to measure progress. Where implementation is part of the engagement, we test the change with your team and hand over the tools they need to keep it working.

Work with us online or on site

Ask Adrian offers remote and on-site consulting. We’ll agree on the format that suits the work, whether that’s online, at your workplace, or a mix of both.

Need a mix of both?

Tell us what you’re working on at hello@askadrianjin.com.

Remote consulting

Meet online

Use video sessions for reviewing business performance, working through decisions, and checking progress with your team. Colleagues can join from wherever they work.

On-site consulting

Work together in person

Meet at your workplace when it helps to see how work happens firsthand. On-site sessions are suited to walking through a process, running a team workshop, or testing a change with the people who will use it.
