Transforming organisations, transforming lives

This expert works with CEOs who wish to change their thinking, change their behaviour and change what they do in order to develop and sustain competitive advantage in the market place. In fact, he sometimes starts new assignments by arranging a 360-degree appraisal of the CEO. He has strong analytical skills, an intuitive talent to get to the root of issues, especially people issues, in order to put together strategies for improvement in individual and organisational performance.

Getting people to identify, use and then develop their Intellectual Capital is, he believes, key to driving up performance, irrespective of whether the organisation is in the public, private or ?not-for-profit? sector.

For twenty years, He has been advising and training with numerous clients in all walks of business, commerce and education. As a nationally accredited business consultant and facilitator he runs bespoke director development courses. However one particular focus over the last few years has been in helping organisations to deal with the challenges and opportunities presented by the Global Knowledge Economy, using the TK Factor? Business Development Process.

Tim spoke to a business audience in Dubai whilst attending the World CEO Forum in February 2006. He is passionate about his work and is frequently asked to address business audiences such as the Academy for Chief Executives and the Institute of Directors. He is an Ambassador for Investors in People UK and a member of the Professional Speakers Association. He writes articles widely for various publications.

He began his business career in 1972 with Horwath & Horwath UK, the international tourism and leisure consultancy. He trained as an accountant with Arthur Young McClelland Moores in London and his final appointment prior to setting up his own business in 1985 was as head of finance for the International Division with H.P. Bulmer plc.

He is co-author of ?Pylgrim?s Progress: How to be a WINNER in the Global Knowledge Economy?. He is 56, married with four children and when he is not reading the latest thinking on business or going on courses himself, he is writing, fishing or jogging.

Your query about Tim K. to The Knowledge Brokers

The challenge for all organisations is how to develop and sustain competitive advantage in the Global Knowledge Economy. In a world where knowledge and information moves at 186,000 miles per second, all business strategies need:
? a measurable statement of excellence for products and / or services
? a quantifiable measure of the directors ambition
? an ongoing internet based marketing strategy

My unique bull?s eye process, proven with many dozens of different organisations over many years is guaranteed to deliver. It is the catalyst for getting everyone on the payroll to be in alignment. The clearer we are about where we want to be, the more likely we are to devise a strategy to get us there.

Developing trust
If the bull?s eye strategy results in a measurable statement of excellence for the organisation, then the directors themselves are also required to be excellent both individually and collectively! This can mean that CEO?s have to change their thinking, change their behaviour and change what they do in order to improve their personal performance. You only grow an organisation by growing the people and this ALWAYS starts with the directors. I am an expert at identifying and implementing the development points of top people and then linking them to the bull?s eye. This is how to develop trust at the highest level before then cascading this process down throughout the organisation.

What makes you special? Really special! Everyone is special but so few people know how special they are, either individually or collectively. I am an expert in developing relationships where one and one makes three, four or even five.

In a world where explicit knowledge is going down in value, it is unique tacit knowledge that is increasing in value; it is the clue to developing the Intellectual Capital of any organisation.
I devised the unique TK Factor ? Business Development model that consistently enhances relationships. When you enhance relationships you always enhance the performance of any organisation. It is the clue to innovation and creativity.
