Our firm
An open perspective.
Grounded convictions.
CONSILIARA is an advisory firm registered in Malaysia. We work on strategy, market entry and organisational change with leadership teams that have to decide across more than one market.
The context comes first.
We start from the decision in front of the organisation, not from a standard offer. That means reading the market, the constraints and the people who will have to act, and saying plainly what is known and what is still an assumption.
The firm is registered in Kuala Lumpur. Offices across Asia, Europe, the Middle East and the Americas keep the work in the markets it concerns.
“Advice has value only when it acknowledges what cannot be controlled, and specifies what the organisation must be prepared to endure.”
Our firm
Operating Principles
- 01
Clarity
Name the facts, the assumptions and the choice, so the people who must act can see the same decision.
- 02
Independent thinking
Test the convenient option as carefully as the one that is uncomfortable.
- 03
A practical perspective
A recommendation says who decides, what it will take, and when it should be reviewed.
- 04
Context
A market, a rule and an organisation only make sense when they are read together.
Leadership
Partnership & Senior Advisory Governance
