What we solved

Filter by the theme that matches your question.

Family business in food retail

Family business and disentanglement

Challenge: A partnership that was completely deadlocked, emotionally charged and without a way out.

Approach and result: We brought it back to clear scenarios and business decisions, and guided a controlled disentanglement.

For: Family business in food retail
Mergers and acquisitions

A deal that also works in practice

Challenge: Done on paper, far from done in practice.

Approach and result: We embedded mergers and acquisitions in processes, systems and culture, from companies joining a group to a full acquisition.

For: Investment platform in portfolio management · NIC Holding
Integration and management

One line after the integration

Challenge: Departments still working past each other after an integration.

Approach and result: We brought them back to one workable line in management and ways of working.

For: NIC Holding · Spendlab · CTCM
Governance, risk and compliance

Compliance that opens doors

Challenge: From mandatory chore to competitive edge.

Approach and result: ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 27001, ISO 31000 and GDPR set up so they not only cover risks, but also give access to tenders and clients that require them.

For: SMEs · CTCM · NIC Holding · Spendlab
Process analysis and optimisation

Seeing where time and quality leak away

Challenge: Processes faltering without anyone knowing exactly where.

Approach and result: We made visible where time and quality were lost and provided concrete steps to make the process smoother and stronger.

Workshop Leadership & Performance

From direction to visible behaviour

Approach and result: In this in-company workshop leadership became something you notice in behaviour, not just on paper.

For: In-company · PASSARA Training

From waiting to taking action

Approach and result: After the training, employees took responsibility themselves and started moving.

For: A large healthcare organisation in South Limburg

Strategy that gets people moving

Challenge: Changes were announced, but did not land.

Approach and result: Managers learned to translate strategy into daily practice, so people really came along.

For: A large healthcare organisation in South Limburg
Strategic sessions

Sharp sessions, clear decisions

Policy you see on the shop floor

Workshop Your Compass

Leaders sharp on their course again

"When our family business got stuck and a merger threatened to derail, Iris Serpenti brought structure to an extremely complex and emotionally charged situation. What stood out immediately was her sharpness and her genuine commitment."

Pascale, May 2026 (translated from Dutch)

Four strategic choices we steer on

Every case starts with the same question: where does your organisation want to excel? Then we make sure processes, systems and culture deliver on that choice.

Innovation and top products

Innovation that is not detached from strategy, but embedded in processes, systems and culture.

Minimal waste, maximum value

Efficient and reliable in process, system and culture. Continuous improvement your team adopts straight away.

Customer at the centre

Customer intimacy that does not stay on paper, but shows in structure, processes and behaviour.

Digitalisation and acceleration

Not a separate IT or AI project, but digitalisation that accelerates your strategic choice.

"Iris asks pointed questions that connect what happens above the surface with what goes on underneath. That creates insights that genuinely help managers move forward."

Tom, April 2026 (translated from Dutch)
