Issue: A diversified family-owned group operating across personal care, batteries, pharmaceuticals, and automotive sectors faced leadership capability gaps, siloed operations, and inconsistent performance. While core businesses were stable, one major business unit was loss-making, and the Group lacked strong enterprise-level functional leadership to drive alignment and disciplined execution.

• Facilitated Group and business-unit strategy roadmaps and performance alignment.

· Fragmented leadership, no effective Group-level direction.
· Siloed decision-making, leading to inconsistency and losses.
After:
· Fully staffed C-suite and high-caliber COOs.
· Profitable turnaround and record growth across units.
