Strategy From big picture to bold results

MAC partners closely with leadership teams to clarify and align an executable strategy for translating longer term goals into tangible actions that deliver measurable results. Our integrated strategies unify teams, streamline integrations, and embed social impact as a core driver, ensuring sustainable value creation.

Strategy development, alignment and execution

We help leadership teams navigate complex decisions that lead to improved enterprise outcomes. We work with you to define your purpose and mission, articulate your value proposition, focus on value creation opportunities, identify critical business capabilities, and ensure long-term viability through deliberate implementation.

Key focus areas

  • Fragmented leadership vision

    Unclear priorities leading to confusion and stalled progress.

  • Misaligned focus areas:

    Enterprises not aligning their focus and resource mobilisation.

  • Changing business landscape:

    Finding new avenues for growth and value creation.

  • Strategy not translating into execution:

    Despite strategic choices being made, the rest of the organisation not shifting to support execution.

Outcome

Purpose-led initiatives that inspire people and strengthen your bottom line.

Merger and acquisition integration that works

Mergers should multiply value, not dilute it. We help our clients to navigate the human and operational aspects of integration - protecting synergies, maintaining cultural harmony, and keeping both customers and employees engaged. We ensure that your integration does not become another “lesson learned” case study. From day one, we align leadership, streamline decisions, and focus integration plans on sustainable value, not just short-term wins

Key focus areas

  • M&A pitfalls

    Combined cultures contributing to high failure rates and lost value.

  • Poor integration planning:

    Integration potential undermined by poor and disjointed planning, and failure to unlock synergies.

Outcome

A faster, smoother integration, that preserves strategic purpose and enables value creation.

Social impact as a strategic advantage

Too often, social responsibility sits on the sidelines whereas its full potential can be better realised when it is integrated into an organisation. We aim to deliver sustainable social impact, by focusing on both the potential and the people who sustain this impact over time. As a result, it can become a strong driver of reputation, engagement, and growth. Our human-centred design process links purpose with profit, creating programmes that make a real difference to communities, while reinforcing your competitive edge.

Key focus areas

  • Limited long-term planning:

    Investing in social impact should take into account long-term human impact vs short-term corporate interventions.

  • Isolated interventions instead of scalable solutions:

    Social impact can be treated as an isolated set of activities, whereas scaled impact is what enables long-term progress

Outcome

Purpose-led initiatives that inspire people and strengthen your bottom line.
