Currant is a small specialist consultancy operating from the Kapiti coast in New Zealand and covering the Wellington region.  We deal with two of the major issues affecting organisations these days – business efficiency and workforce wellbeing.   We offer help and advice on strategic and business planning, financial management, project management and occupational health.

As well as advising businesses of all shapes and sizes, with particular skills in not for profits and the public sector,  we may be able to help you get started if you have a great idea for a business, but don’t know how to turn it into reality.

Why might you need us?

• Right now things are getting tough.  A competitive and difficult operating environment is placing a strain on meeting budgets or making profits.   For some, just surviving in a world of significant change and continued financial crisis is challenging enough.
• Changes in technology are also disrupting many long established business models and everywhere there are increasing demands for regulation.
• Workforce health and welfare is no longer seen as a “nice to have” issue, so much as a key business enabler.

However,  with the right advice and fresh thinking many businesses can thrive in such circumstances.   From providing interim cover for gaps in staffing through to full process re-engineering, we can help.

Currant’s Business Prophets are a team of expert practitioners

We will not only advise you on what to do, but become part of delivering the answer. We can help you to make better decisions, reduce costs, improve workforce health, build a more effective organisation and develop appropriate technology strategies.

We start by understanding your organisation: your operation, competitive dynamics, culture, objectives and challenges. By seeing the world the way you do we can work to your agenda, not our own and we will apply our insights to your specific strategic and operational issues.    However, our culture of curiosity, innovation and reinvention means that your thinking will be challenged to ensure that between us we create a robust plan and pragmatic approach to moving forward.

Why not let our business prophets help your business profits?

We’ll deliver the value that we promise and that you expect

That could mean faster time to value, lower costs, improved cash flow and higher revenue.

This can help you achieve new goals, penetrate new markets, create successful mergers and simplify legacy systems and emerging technologies alike.

Our occupational health team can provide a range of services including:

• interim support,
• vaccination programmes,
• health promotion campaigns,
• workforce monitoring and
• pre-employment screening as well as
• policy and process review.

In short, we will help you to succeed.
