Our principles
We are as selective about our clients as our clients are selective about their partners. To generate real outcomes, values, and operating principles must be aligned between client and consultant. Here is what we believe in, what you can expect, and what you will get from LAI - AAA.
Deep knowledge and expertise
The team of LAI - AAA have a deep, profound knowledge of human nature and organizational dynamics– where conflicts can occur and how to solve them, what works and what does not. They’ve seen it all, lived it all, and done it all.
"LAI has a wealth of experience. They've worked with big companies and small companies – and have lots of stories to tell about situations that are pertinent."
Chief Executive Officer, Investments
Brutal honesty
The best way to change and improve is to be unafraid of dealing with reality. We’re objective truth-seekers driven by the need to uncover the uncomfortable truths that get in the way of excellence. Only then can we make a plan to go forward.
“I’ve come across many consultants. LAI is really quite unique because of their outward personality and honesty. It’s really that honesty that makes all the difference. You never have the idea you’re being consulted.”
Head of Research, Financial Services
Outcomes-obsessed
Identifying problems and assessing them honestly and directly is important. However, to fully enact positive change, you must provide the know-how and next steps to solve those problems. LAI - AAA is skilled both at assessing barriers and opportunities and creating actionable next steps that lead to real outcomes.
"They know what works for the audience. The trick is coming up with the advice and changing things that actually make a difference."
Chief IP Counsel, Pharmaceuticals
Trusted partnership
LAI - AAA values enduring engagements with clients who become partners over years, even decades, of successful interactions. The LAI - AAA experience is high-touch and personalized – driven by integrity, trust, and a shared passion for winning.
"We’ve worked with them for so long that we view them as partners. We partner with them around leadership, talent, coaching, and feedback.”
Chief Operating Officer, Financial Services
LAI - AAA has the platform resources and global savvy to counsel and execute anywhere in the world — and we have. Whether your organizational challenge is in Dubai, UAE; Gurugama, India; Shanghai, China; or Johannesburg, South Africa — we are here to support. With a global network of consultants — many multi-lingual — and decades of experience delivering solutions to multinationals and navigating cultural nuance, borders are not barriers to LAI - AAA.
Global scope
