Strategic & Financial Stewardship for Business Leaders

Giving leadersa decisive edge.

Kelya takes charge of the financial and strategic direction of the business, alongside its leadership.

Numbers tell you where you stand. Rarely what to do about it.

What we hear

  • I often decide without having the full picture.

  • My numbers reach me too late to be useful.

  • On the decisions that matter, I am on my own.

  • I have no time to put proper financial direction in place.

Ten questions

You should be able to answer every one of these this morning, without opening a thing.

  1. 01

    Can you name your three priorities for the year, in order?

  2. 02

    Which offer carries your margin, and which one erodes it?

  3. 03

    Is your three-year plan costed, or only written?

  4. 04

    What would happen if you lost your largest client?

  5. 05

    On what day do you receive last month’s figures?

  6. 06

    Who can commit a spend, and up to what amount?

  7. 07

    Do you know your payroll for the next six months?

  8. 08

    If the person who runs the close stops for a month, who takes over?

  9. 09

    Does your reporting inform you, or help you decide?

  10. 10

    Do you know what your three main risks would cost?

The ones that go unanswered are where we begin.

What business leaders say

  • Everyone was counting on me to know where we were going. But between the hiring, the investments and the day-to-day, I no longer knew what the business could actually afford.

    Founder · Luxury cosmetics · 40 people

  • I can walk in with a conviction and walk out with a better decision. Malak knows the files well enough to contradict me, and knows my role well enough to leave the call to me.

    Chairman · Watchmaking · 120 people

  • We were ready to hire three people. Working with Kelya led us to look at the organisation first. We absorbed ten per cent growth with the same headcount.

    Managing Director · Luxury fashion · 55 people

  • These days I call Malak before I commit to anything. She knows our numbers, our team and my ambitions. That trust was built through the decisions we have taken together.
