The traditional consulting model, based on external analysis and extensive reports, is losing ground to more collaborative approaches. Companies actively involved in developing their own solutions can implement changes more efficiently and with greater internal buy-in. This trend has gained momentum and driven new methodologies, such as solution workshops promoted by EDR, led by Andrea Eboli.
“Direct involvement of companies in solution building ensures that strategies are more aligned with the business reality. When managers and their teams participate in the process, the results are more accurate and sustainable,” explains Eboli, an expert in strategy and business transformation.
Co-creation and customization as a differential
Unlike traditional consultancies that deliver packages of recommendations for later implementation, EDR adopts an interactive approach, involving companies in developing strategies from the beginning. This allows real-time adjustments and ensures that each solution is personalized to meet the specific demands of each business.
“Every company has unique challenges, and the answers cannot be generic. The co-creation process allows solutions to be shaped according to the client’s reality, making implementation more effective and enduring,” says Eboli.
Results that generate real impact
The methodology of EDR has already been applied in several companies, resulting in greater operational efficiency and strategic gains. One of the success stories involves the restructuring of the commercial strategy of a retail company, which managed to increase its sales conversion by 30% by applying solutions developed in conjunction with its managers and sales team.
Another example is that of an industry facing difficulties in integrating processes between different sectors. After conducting a solutions workshop, the company reduced the response time between areas by 40%, improving productivity and decision-making.
“The impact of this model goes beyond numbers. Teams feel more engaged and participatory because they see themselves as part of the solution. This strengthens the organizational culture and drives innovation within companies,” emphasizes Eboli.
Consulting as a strategic partner
The transformation in the consulting market reflects the need for companies to have strategic partners who go beyond analysis and truly participate in the development of solutions. Collaborative models like those applied by EDR show that the future of business consulting involves co-creation and agile implementation of strategies.
“The era of static reports is behind us. Today, companies need dynamic solutions, built based on the real experience of the teams that will be at the forefront of changes,” concludes Andrea Eboli.
