Agencies who take the appropriate steps to grow beyond their current size often find themselves up against artificial ceilings that prohibit them from additional growth extreme changes. Agency Consulting Group, Inc. can help you grow and change your organization gradually, as your revenue growth requires. Change is the ONLY inevitable condition. If you, as the owner, are prepared to change to better your organization, your employees must be developed or you will simply outgrow them. The worst situation is when an organization moves to the next level while a loyal, long-term employee does not. Often, out of a sense of loyalty, the organization slows or stops its transition in favor of the limitations of one or more employees. If developed properly, employees and organization will grow together.
