Established by Dan Shakespeare in 2023, Tactical Edge Consultancy profoundly believes in the potential that engaged, empowered and aligned people can bring to business and is dedicated to helping guide organisations to true Operational Excellence. We unleash stored business potential by bringing together people, culture, systems and technology to create happy, healthy and high-performing organisations - delivered through our tried, tested, proven and repeatable model founded in Servant Leadership, Lean Operational Excellence and Business Agility.
The challenge of industry continues to evolve and places increased pressure on businesses to deliver value to customers and shareholders and protect their legacy and employees. From the skills crisis and net zero to productivity and profitability, we understand the complex challenges across sectors with the Construction industry's long-standing issue with flatlined productivity and razor-thin margins to the challenge in Manufacturing with the labour shortage and urgent need to address the climate emergency.
We believe that, with the relentless pace of change, companies must embed a performance system and culture to act as a shock absorber to whatever global economics throws at them, with people and leaders at the heart of business change equipped with sustainable, outcome-based improvement methodology to help organisations continually to improvise, adapt and overcome.
With over 15 of experience in Leadership and Operational Excellence implementation, Dan began his career in HM Armed Forces, where he had the privilege of learning from great leaders and leading great teams during peace and war operations. Since then, Dan has been fortunate enough to lead significant transformational change programmes across several diverse industries across the public and private sector environments, from defence and maintenance to manufacturing and construction.
