About
“Feet on the Ground stands for being authentic, Say what you do and do what you say, be transparent, collaborate, focus and work as a team in order to pave the road for success”
Back in 2016, when I was cycling up Alp d’ Huez while participating in a charity event, I realized there is a huge parallel between business and cycling. It’s all about teamwork and focus to achieve goals.
Without support from “specialists” like the mechanic, physiotherapist, trainer and coach the chances to reach the top of the mountain are small.
The same applies to business. Teamwork and focus are very important to achieve goals.
During my working life I have seen many organizations struggling to reach their goals. Reasons being different priorities and interests within the organization, difficulties to align goals across the organization and complex communication throughout the organization.
Those organizations had great people, great propositions but were not able to take full advantage of these assets. They missed the opportunity to meet their goals.
This was the reason for starting Feet on the Ground. Feet on the Ground is your “specialist”. Through a focused, pragmatic and collaborative approach we help ICT/Telecom businesses in their transformation, reach goals and deliver value to the business.
Feet on the Ground has their own approach when it comes to interim assignments.
While running the activity, we do an assessment of the situation, we record observations, we provide advice for optimization, we execute, we support the recruitment process, we onboard the future leader and we ensure a smooth handover.
Feet on Ground is to the believe that this is the best way to bring value to your business.
