Inevitably throughout the process, the dialogue we establish with you ensures that we increasingly understand your business needs. You in the process validate that the various elements of the examples of support to the business under revue are connected and compatible with your company and with each other. This in our experience has without exception been a powerful process, often fundamentally changing our clients’ approach to the country and market and always bringing to light issues that were both critical to business and yet often not part of the original agenda or brief.
Having undertaken the “Contingency Tour” should your business wish to move forward here, you will have the option to request support from myself and associates on the ground who as a result of the experience are well briefed in your business and capable of acting upon your instructions and within your guidelines. Where applicable, the experience gained through this process will be sufficient to allow Midas to further much of the later activity on your behalf whilst reducing the future need for your input of management resources.
