Transition Advisory
Navigating the space between what an organization was and what it is becoming. We do not define the destination. The destination defines itself, and we document the process for the board.
Transition Advisory · Est. 2024
Liminal Consultants Group advises leadership teams, boards, and strategic owners on the problems that compound quietly — between reporting periods, between stakeholders, between definitions of the firm itself.
01
Three proprietary instruments — the Stakeholder Yield Matrix™, the Coherence Index™, and the Engagement Capture Protocol™ — underpin every engagement. We publish the methodology. We do not publish the clients.
02
The firm takes on a limited number of mandates each year. Several are initiated before the prospective client has formally reached out. We decline more than we accept.
03
We plan in decades, not quarters. Transition plans are written to outlast the leadership teams that commission them, and, where necessary, to outlast the organizational form.
Practice Areas
Each practice area addresses a category of problem that traditional strategy consulting treats as out of scope, or declines to name.
Navigating the space between what an organization was and what it is becoming. We do not define the destination. The destination defines itself, and we document the process for the board.
Capturing the secondary yield latent in every stakeholder relationship — including those the organization has not formally acknowledged, and those that acknowledge the organization first.
Operating models for firms whose stakeholder timelines no longer run in parallel. We design for coherence across horizons the reporting calendar was not built to accommodate.
An operating discipline for leadership teams onboarding non-human contributors — covering temporal flexibility, benefits design, performance review cadence, and the adjustments the organization will need to make to itself.
Our Approach
Every engagement follows a four-phase model adapted from classical strategy consulting and extended to accommodate the non-linear cases our clients actually present. Diagnostics run two weeks. Transition plans run longer — sometimes materially longer than the client's stated horizon, for reasons the plan itself will clarify.
The work produces three deliverables on a standard cadence: a coherence diagnostic, a stakeholder map inclusive of parties not yet introduced, and a transition plan reviewed jointly with the client and, where applicable, with the counterparties the client has not yet met. A fourth deliverable is issued on request.
