Consultancy
We provide tailor-made consultancy services to government departments, businesses and institutions in the public sector and academia.
Our consultancy services usually draw upon both our knowledge of specific fields, including business development and management, project management and impact analysis. The process varies dependent on the project, but generally includes detailed discussion of intended project outcomes, background research, stakeholder analysis and interviews/focus groups, project or delivery model design, and support for implementation.
Strategic Management
Strategic Management is all about identification and description of the strategies that managers can carry so as to achieve better performance and a competitive advantage for their organization. An organization is said to have competitive advantage if its profitability is higher than the average profitability for all companies in its industry.
Imperial Research & Consultancy conducts thorough analysis of the general and competitive organizational environment so as to take right decisions. We conduct a SWOT Analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats), i.e., to help you make best possible utilization of strengths, minimize the organizational weaknesses, make use of arising opportunities from the business environment and not to ignore the threats.
Change Management
Change management is a systematic approach to dealing with change both from the perspective of an organization and the individual.
Change management is a structured approach for ensuring that changes are thoroughly and smoothly implemented, and that the lasting benefits of change are achieved.
The focus is on the wider impacts of change, particularly on people and how they, as individuals and teams, move from the current situation to the new one. The change in question could range from a simple process change, to major changes in policy or strategy needed if the organization is to achieve its potential.
With the increased shift to the use of technology, most organisations have had to deal with the inevitable change and most cases it has been welcomed as expected. We have the expertise to manage change in your organisation so you can realise your full potential.
Business Development
Business development is sales”.
“Business development is partnerships”.
“Business development is hustling” .
This is what most people will say when you ask them what Business Development is. At Imperial Research & Consultancy we believe “Business development is the creation of long-term value for an organization from customers, markets, and relationships” – Scott Pollack.
In the simplest terms, business development can be summarized as the ideas, initiatives and activities aimed towards making a business better.
Business development activities extend across different departments, including sales, marketing, project management, product management and vendor management. Networking, negotiations, partnerships, and cost-savings efforts are also involved. All these different departments and activities are driven by and aligned to the business development goals.
Our team of consultant have extensive knowledge and experience in business development. Let us know what your goals are and we will give you the right solution.
Team Effectiveness
Team effectiveness (also referred to as group effectiveness) is the capacity a team has to accomplish the goals or objectives administered by an authorized personnel or the organization – Aubé, Caroline; Rousseau, Vincent
The evaluation of how effective a team is, is achieved with the aid of a variety of components derived from research and theories that help in creating a description of the multifaceted nature of team effectiveness. According to Hackman (1987), team effectiveness can be defined in terms of three criteria:
Output – The final outputs produced by the team must meet or exceed the standards set by key constituents within the organisation
Social Processes – The internal social processes operating as the team interacts should enhance, or at least maintain, the group’s ability to work together in the future
Learning – The experience of working in the team environment should act to satisfy rather than aggravate the personal needs of team members.
‘Two heads are better than one’
‘Teamwork makes the dream work’
We often hear these phrases but what really makes a team effective? People working as a team can achieve much more than individuals working alone.

Consulting is more than just good advice.
