About Us
OUR STRATEGIC PLANNING EXPERIENCE...


SEQUUS directors, get to the table when some very important strategic decisions are made. Our experience as strategic planning facilitators is called upon by some of our most important institutions. We were there when the decision was made to breathe new life into the Winnipeg Stock Exchange. The Manitoba government called on us to pioneer client-focussed strategic planning in the Highways department. We shepherded three financial institutions through a recent merger. And we led the meetings that initiated a turnaround in a major arts organization. Professional associations of dentists, accountants, trainers, property appraisers,  public health officials, community developers, retirement planners, chiropracters and others have used our help to set new, long term directions.

Some of our biggest and most successful private corporations have used SEQUUS to help them assess themselves against critical success factors in their sector, develop new visions, identify strategic alternatives, select the best strategy, and develop implementation plans. We work with retailers, software developers, television networks, financial service providers, printers, communications providers,  insurers, law firms, manufacturers, professional service providers, biotechnology companies, car dealerships, and other bottomline-oriented clients. Health care, education and social service organizations face many, serious challenges today. SEQUUS has been on the inside when boards and management get together to develop their response to a world that is changing around them.  Our clients include some of  our major hospitals,  health authorities, our universities, our social service agencies, and education boards. In the world of sports and recreation, we have been there when the Canada Games faced major challenges, when the PanAm games conducted a progress review, and when the Royal Winter Fair built a new governance structure. We have done the same for museums, theatres, aboriginal groups,  festivals,  religious organizations,  and even entire communities.
