Business Strategy Study Materials
Real-world resources built from actual consulting projects and years of helping Australian businesses refine their approach. These aren't theoretical—they're what works.
Everything You Need to Build Better Strategy
We've spent years documenting what actually moves the needle for Australian businesses. Not academic theory—practical materials you can put to work tomorrow.
- Step-by-step planning worksheets tested with over 150 companies
- Financial modeling templates that accountants actually approve
- Market analysis frameworks designed for Australian conditions
- Implementation checklists from real turnaround projects
- Video walkthroughs showing exactly how to apply each tool
Most resources come with examples from actual projects (anonymized, of course). You'll see how other businesses tackled similar challenges.

"We update these materials based on what's working in the field, not what sounds good in theory."
I've been maintaining this resource library since 2019, and honestly, it's a constant process of refinement. Every quarter we review what people actually use versus what sits untouched.
The breakthrough came when we stopped trying to create comprehensive academic resources and started documenting real projects. Now when someone asks "How do I analyze cash flow for a retail business?" we can point them to an actual retail case study, not generic theory.
Our next major update hits in September 2025—we're adding materials around digital transformation strategy based on projects from the past year. Real challenges, real solutions.
