Tomorrow we’re running the “Team Strategy Days That Actually Work” online workshop - and if you’ve been on the fence, here’s why now’s the time to jump in. 

Here’s what happens when consultancy owners get their team strategy days right: 

- Drew got complete buy-in from his team and tripled his profit margins in 90 days
 

- Raj built a team that delivers without him and grew his business by 246%
 

- Mandy, Alex & David nailed their internal culture and won an $850K tender 

Take a glance at tomorrow’s calendar. 

Now back to me. 

Now back to your calendar. 

Now back to me. 

Tomorrow, you could be stuck in ‘business as usual’ tasks and not moving things forward… 

...or, you could be learning how to run a powerful team strategy session that: 

- Aligns your people 

- Clarifies direction 

- And builds real business momentum 

Let’s build it together. 

The Team Strategy Days That Actually Work Workshop 

Tuesday 12 August 

11:45am – 1:15pm AEST

Your office might have a ping-pong table. 

You might put pizza on every Friday afternoon.  

Heck, your team might even like each other. 

But if your team strategy days have no structure? 

None of that matters. 

Because here’s the truth: 

Culture perks won’t fix confusion. 

If your strategy days don’t clarify direction, drive alignment, and spark ownership… 

You’re just serving up carbs and chaos. 

Let’s fix that. 

Next Tuesday, I’m running an online workshop:

This is a hands-on, no-BS session for consultancy owners who want to run a strategy day that actually delivers outcomes - not just awkward small talk and lukewarm Domino’s. 

No vague visioning. 

No endless whiteboard circles. 

No “team-building” games that ...

When we grew our consultancy from $3M to $30M, we thought we had it all figured out. 

Revenue was climbing. Projects were bigger. The team was growing fast. 

But underneath the surface, something wasn’t clicking. 

We’d run strategy days. Bring the team together. Talk about the big picture. 

But nothing really changed. 

There was no structure. No buy-in. No follow-through. 

And without that? 

- The team left more confused than clear 

- Decisions weren’t made (or stuck) 

- And we wasted time, money, and momentum 

Sound familiar? 

The truth is, most consultancy owners are stuck here. 

They want alignment, clarity, and momentum from their team… 

But their strategy days fall flat - or worse, stall progress altogether. 

That’s the problem. 

And next week, I’ll show you how to fix it. 

I’m running a 90-minute workshop called:

Next week I’m running an online workshop called “Team Strategy Days That Actually Work”. 

It’s designed to help you align your team, make clear strategic decisions, and walk away with real momentum - not just another whiteboard full of ideas. 

If your last strategy day lacked direction… fizzled out… or failed to turn talk into action… 

Or you want to learn how to run highly effective team strategy days… 

This is your chance to fix it. 

I’ll walk you through the exact structure we use with consulting teams like yours - and show you how to run a session that actually moves the business forward.

Let’s fix your team strategy day - and build alignment that sticks. 

To your success, 

Josh 

You’ve got a capable team. 

They want to do good work. They want clarity. They want to feel part of something. 

But when it comes to getting them fully aligned — with buy-in, ownership, and a clear path forward? 

That’s where most consultancy owners get stuck. 

You run a planning day… throw a few ideas on the whiteboard… talk about the year ahead… 

And hope it’s enough to get people on board. 

But without a clear structure? 

— Your team walks away unclear on direction 

— The loudest voices dominate the day 

— And nothing actually changes 

That’s the problem. 

And it’s time to fix it. 

Next week, I’m running a 90-minute online workshop to show you how.

If your last team strategy day felt like a talkfest… 

If you walked away with vague ideas, zero accountability, and a team that didn’t seem fired up...

This workshop will walk you through exactly how to run powerful team strategy days that get your people focused, fired up, and fully aligned to your business vision.

I’ve helped hundreds of engineering & built environment consultancy owners plan and run high-impact strategy days that align the team, clarify direction, and drive real momentum. 

In this session, I’ll show you exactly how to: 

- Structure your team strategy days to drive clarity and focus 

- Get genuine buy-in and contribution from the team 

- Facilitate meaningful disc...

If you want to lift profitability fast...

Don’t start with pricing.

Start with scope control.

Because in most consultancies - that’s where the profit leaks out.

Vague proposals. Undefined deliverables. Endless variations and client demands.

You end up doing 150% of the job… for 100% of the fee.

Here’s how to fix it:

- Get Ruthless With Clarity -

Your proposal should read like a contract. Spell out exactly what’s included. And what’s not.

- Train Your Team on Scope Boundaries -

They need to know when a “quick favour” turns into free work. And how to have the right conversations early.

- Track It Like You Track Time -

Scope creep is invisible - unless you measure it.

Start tracking where and why projects go over.

Pricing gets the attention.

But scope is what protects your margin.

Nail your scope control - and your profit margin will jump.

To your success,

Josh

PS: If you’re interested, here are 4 ways I can help you right now: 

Early on in our growth, we landed a major client. 

High-profile. High revenue. 

We thought we’d made it. 

So we bent over backwards. 

Discounted fees. Scope creep. Free extras. 

Sound familiar?  

Over 9 months, we did $400K of work… 

For about $150K in fees. 

It looked good on paper. But it nearly killed our cash flow. 

And we learnt a tough lesson: 

Revenue is not the same as profit. 

These days, I coach firms to spot those red flags early: 

— Clients who haggle on price 

— Projects with unclear scope 

— Teams stretched too thin to “keep the client happy” 

You don’t need more work. 

You need the right work — with clear scope, fair margins, and solid delivery. 

That one client taught us the true cost of saying yes too easily. 

Never again. 

And if you’re a “yes” kind of person – I hope this has helped reset your thinking.  

To your success,  

Josh 

PS: If you’re interested, here are 4 ways I can help you rig...

There’s a ceiling I see a lot of consultancies hit. 

Around the $2–3M mark. 

You’ve got a decent team. You’ve built a solid reputation. You’re winning good work. 

But things feel heavy. 

Margins are inconsistent. 

You’re still across too many decisions. 

And growth beyond this point feels harder than it should. 

Here’s why: 

The structure that got you here… isn’t the one that’ll get you there. 

To break through that $3M ceiling and grow to $5M… $10M… and beyond… 

You need to rebuild your operating model. 

— Define Your Leadership Roles — 

Who owns what? Who’s accountable for performance? Remove the bottlenecks. 

— Streamline Project Delivery — 

Systemise how work gets done — so you’re not the only one who can do it right. 

— Build a Business That Can Run Without You — 

That doesn’t mean stepping away. 

It means elevating your role — so your business can grow without relying on your personal capacity. 

It’s not just...
