Prism Management
In 2002, Prism Management Services Ltd. was formed by Niall Strickland to provide consulting services to small and medium enterprises. The founder was cognizant that a lot of small businesses are run by entrepreneurs that are particularly strong in one or two disciplines, such as sales or product development, but that in general, there is a lack of broad based business skills/knowledge that allow these businesses to successfully evolve from entrepreneurial start-ups to becoming larger mainstream businesses. The inability to employ full-time business professionals with broad based experience can present a severe obstacle to growth. This presents an opportunity for specialist consulting firms to provide services on an outsourced basis to these entrepreneurial businesses at a lower cost and without the complications inherent in hiring full time staff.
Prism Management Services Ltd. has access to many management professionals, which can be combined to provide strategic, operational, marketing, and technology perspectives to any business that has not yet built these capabilities in-house. The methodologies used are designed to:
- Minimize business risk
- Show the value of planning as a roadmap for the entire organization
- Identify areas requiring structured change
- Seamlessly implement change
- Identify opportunities
- Exploit the opportunities
The dominant driving force of the business is satisfying a market need that traditional consulting firms have failed to deliver.
