Who we are

We are a trusted business partner to several blue chip organizations in Africa.

We are problem solvers with a passion for excellence. We are intellectually curious and highly collaborative. We don’t regard individuals based on their title, but on their competence and leadership.

We are gender balanced; we are diverse, we come from different places of Anglophone and Francophone Africa with rich experience and different backgrounds and areas of expertise.

We are a network of leaders. What we look for when we are hiring or partnering with consultants are individuals with leadership potential, integrity, sharp analytical mind, creativity, and the ability to work with people at all levels in any given organization.

We have a passion for helping the people we work with. Those who join G&A Business Solutions join people bound by a shared set of values and a culture of trust, respect, caring, support and interdependence.

We constantly measure new ideas, opportunities, and ways of working against our values. When they measure up, our choices are easy, clear and final: We say “yes” with enthusiasm and we put the full weight of our organization behind them. However, if they fall short, then our choices are equally easy, clear and final: We say “no, thank you.”

The way we work

We speak the language of our clients, living where they live and understanding their business.

We deliver the best of our organisation,

We build our clients’ capabilities to sustain improvement

We bring innovation in management practice

We build enduring relationship based on trust.

We believe in professional behaviour and conduct, respecting local customs and culture, without compromising our integrity.

All G&A Business Solutions programs are conceived as transformational. They are mostly designed in the form of interactive workshops with effective use of audio-visual materials, case studies, role plays and practical business/ work assignments. The very participative format of our learning events is deliberately planned to stimulate learning through great interactions amongst participants, to encourage team building and to promote best practice sharing.

Our programs always include:

• A through understanding of the problems and/or challenges
• A comprehensive description of the symptoms of the real issues
• A detailed set of solutions and the benefits deriving there from
• A translation of these benefits into Business KPIS
• A set of Implementation, Tracking and Monitoring tools including personal motivational scoreboards
• An assessment of the impact of the program on competence development and bottom line

This therefore requires that the programs are scheduled in 2 phases:

• Phase 1:

  Theoretical curriculum and Practical Business Assignment/projects

• Phase 2:

  Review of the Business Assignment/projects vis a vis corporate KPIs, assessment of personal contribution and Certification.

More than regular and conventional training, our programs are about knowledge transfer and empowerment.

What we believe

We believe that we can only be successful if our clients are successful. We believe we cannot do one without the other.

We believe that solving the hardest problem requires the best people. We therefore draw the best people to work on your assignments and we have built our organisation around this belief.

We believe in professional behaviour. That’s why we uphold absolute integrity. We show respect to local custom and culture, as long as we don’t compromise our integrity. We have the courage to invent and champion unconventional solutions. We do this to help you get to the real issues and reach practical recommendations.

We believe in confidentially of information.
