We are your non-consultant consultants
Our brand is not your insurance policy – our people and approach to engagements are.
We are not your conventional consulting firm.
We ‘parachute’ in versatile I/O psych, strategy and change practitioners to bolster capabilities that are critical to delivering your business outcomes.
We work together with you and your team to help create a system of genuine capability and support to successfully get the job done.
VF is led by Mark McCarthy
Mark is an experienced executive and strategy consultant who has worked extensively for listed corporations, NZ/Australian SME’s and new ventures advising on major business challenges, developing corporate and business unit strategy, personally leading high-stakes customer, supplier and people issues, and driving large-scale transformation and performance improvement programmes.
90% of our work comes through trusted referrals. When we get your call, we know you're looking for our style of support, not a method-bound consulting product.
What we offer begins with us connecting to genuinely explore your business problems and needs.
We then agree how best to engage to deliver your business outcomes, at the same time as building your organisation. If required, we can call on our eco-system of affiliate firms to work with us to help deliver your strategic portfolio.
We provide our clients access to strategic advice and seriously capable practitioners who work to bring your business outcomes into reach.
Through VF’s unique model, we achieve stronger outcomes together.
