Business Principles

  1. Our aim is always to help our clients craft and execute a strategy that can result in market leadership.
  2. We understand that consulting with an "upside" requires an entrepreneurial spirit. Our willingness to share some risk influences every aspect of our practice. It aligns our motivation with that of our clients, and it ensures that we are driven by results.
  3. We create value by combining a respect for knowledge, theory, analysis, and fact-based evaluation with intuition, imagination, and a conviction that speed is central to seizing and keeping the initiative.
  4. We recognise that competitive advantage is founded on clear differentiation. We also understand that standing out from the crowd does not come from adopting common practices; rather, it comes from the ability to think creatively, to generate alternative ideas, and to execute those ideas with confidence.
  5. While we remain generalists in our strategic approach, we seek to be experts in understanding the challenges that are faced by the clients we serve. As we grow, we aim to develop expertise in several industry verticals and across multiple markets.
  6. We work with our clients as one team. Our relationship is underpinned by joint responsibility and value is co-produced.
  7. We believe that effective team-working and collaboration produces the best results. It also facilitates our learning. We recognise that our rate of learning and our ability to apply what we learn effectively can be the decisive factor in successfully bringing new offerings to market.
  8. RIG operates in line with a boutique philosophy that prizes focus, intimacy, and selectiveness. Our focus is on working in close partnership with a limited number of clients. Through a combination of relationship-building and delivering results, we aim to earn the trust that is the foundation of long-term relationships. We foster a flexible organisation characterised by an intimate, personable, and entrepreneurial culture. We give careful consideration to the selection of both our people and our clients.
  9. We offer our people the opportunity to shape their own future and that of the firm more than is possible in most organisations. We aim to ensure that the only constraints facing individuals are the rate at which they can develop their capabilities, and their ability to work well with colleagues and clients.
  10. RIG is committed to backing good ideas from any level of the firm. Talent is more important than seniority, so we do not have titles.
