Our Vision
Wilson Perumal & Company seeks to redefine management consulting for the real needs of companies today.
We were founded on the belief that companies need new capabilities and new perspectives that traditional consulting firms cannot provide. The world is getting more complex; our vision is to continue to expand the world’s knowledge base on this issue and in the process help global organizations improve.
In our work, we have observed the following:
-
The world has fundamentally changed. Companies are increasingly complex. In fact, companies and markets today better resemble complex systems than linear chains of causation that has been the model for decades.
The old approaches don’t work. Attacking these issues requires new skills and capabilities. Traditional approaches don’t work. A fleet of newly minted MBAs is rarely sufficient, and particularly not today. Functional approaches to problems are limited in value, particularly in the face of complexity.
For these reasons, companies need a new kind of consulting firm, and a new approach to emerging issues. As complex systems, companies now find themselves stymied by systemic, entrenched issues. We understand these dynamics. We connect the dots in your business and help you navigate the complex web of cause and effect.
We also know that we don’t have all the answers, but we’re asking different questions. Our book, Waging War on Complexity Costs, is the #1 business book on complexity. We are unique in our point-of-view and the breadth and depth of our capability. We can help you develop the necessary structural knowledge to understand, identify and drive the coordinated set of focused actions to address these systemic issues. We’re the authority on complexity, and what it takes to compete, and win, in a complex world.
