Strategy

Strategy gives direction - direction gives focus and focus gives companies the ability to move forward in pursuit of growth, improvement, financial success and sustainability; they don't remain trapped in a cycle of mere maintenance and mediocrity.

Communication

Communication is key to reputation building and internal cohesion, taking care of the soul of an organisation - it ensures informed business stakeholders, facilitates the sharing of ideas that lead to innovation and success to resolve differences in a constructive way.

Consulting

When we consult to clients, we become part of their extended team. Stone prides itself on the quality and deep varied international experience of our consultants. Our approach is one of providing trusted counsel to our clients, rather than just repackaging what they tell us.
