Our Work
Ryelle Founder and Managing Director Carol Kotacka has spent her career in the field working with industry, government and front-line service providers. From labour halls to emergency departments to manufacturing lines, a consistent theme became apparent: Brilliant, transformational ideas already exist within organizations.
The key to unlocking the power of these ideas and turning them into action lies squarely in providing a platform for connection, collaboration and co-creation, and providing organizations with the extra hands to turn transformational goals into turn-key operational execution. That’s where Ryelle comes in.
Ryelle continually engages private and public sector leaders across industries and geographies, asking them, “What keeps you up at night?”. The answers consistently reveal that leaders are keenly aware of the rapidly changing context in which they operate. They understand the need to evolve in order to thrive, but often lack the resources and capacity – essentially, people power – to make it happen. The commitment and consistency necessary to drive outcomes and R.O.I. often isnʼt possible. Ryelle Strategy Group brings both strategy and execution expertise to organizations on an as-needed basis in a cost-effective manner.
We help companies and organizations with strategy execution, first and foremost. Our experience with organizations, budgets (big and small) and multi-disciplinary teams provides the expertise and experience to support organizations to deliver on their execution goals.
Our service offerings have been designed to provide value to any leader in the private, public or non-governmental organization (NGO) space. With our network of seasoned leaders and top-notch client service model, we can support organizations in times of crisis or that are planning for the future. With the capacity to set the strategy, execution structure and measurement platform, Ryelle can offer a turnkey execution system that provides support through exercises in strategy development, insourced execution teams, coaching and/or capacity building, to name a few.
