Konektis

Your team of strategic business thinkers

Small enough to care. Big enough to deliver.

A little big firm.

Composed of strategic thinkers from diverse fields, Konektis is more than a board of advisors. We’re also business owners, each with our own successful organisations. Working cohesively as a team, we offer a unique, collaborative perspective that combines our experience, enabling businesses to thrive.

Our approach is informal yet straightforward, and we pride ourselves on being refreshingly candid. Blending sharp insights with a relaxed demeanour, we make complex strategies easy to understand, offering you advice that’s digestible and user-friendly.

We’re creative and intuitive, experienced enough to trust our instincts, and we take calculated risks to help your business flourish. We’re relentless truth-seekers, constantly asking the unasked questions to truly understand what your business needs. And, with calm confidence, we offer security and freedom, empowering you to make the best decisions for your business.

What to expect

A connected team.

Every part is connected to the whole. So, we collaborate across the team for every single client.

 

Endless support.

You’ll never walk alone. Ever. We value long-term relationships, not transactions. We’re empathetic “been-around-the-block” listeners; a team you can always turn to.


Unwavering curiosity.

You’re more than your business, and we want to know the real you. Your story and experiences drive us and guide our advice.

 

A challenging & supportive partner.

We create a safe and respectful space for you to ask questions, consider new angles, and courageously explore all possibilities.
