UOG
“Rod has supported our start-ups for the last 3 years and really takes the time to get to know each entrepreneur. This proves invaluable in providing the highest quality of support and means each start-up knows the next steps they need to take for their venture to have the best chance of success.”

“Working with Rod enables us to form a development and reporting system for our R&D department has been very helpful. Especially the knowledge of how development works in larger trades, particularly the auto industry, has added value and given us direction to how we built our system and how we use it.”

About
Rod Horrocks

I am an enthusiastic instigator and implementor of change with an inherent ability to enthuse and educate others in the ways and benefits of change. Using my strong engineering and systems background I can approach business change from a logical perspective and quickly assimilate the present situation. Through my consulting experiences I have applied a wide variety of ‘best practices’ which I can tailor and apply to meet the business context in front of me.
Working in a wide range of industries over the last 40 Years, from manufacturing, through Oil and Gas into services; companies ranging from SME’s to Multi-Nationals, has honed my skills in communication and application of new tools and skills so that our clients always walk away being able to sustain any programme themselves.
I relish challenging of the status quo and the reaction of the business ‘immune’ system; developing arguments for change and communicating these effectively to change-resistant leaders and staff. I believe that innovation is the core of change and therefore throughout my career have been in the vanguard of many innovations such as computer-aided design and process planning and visual simulation; I continue to use ‘digital’ tools to define and enhance proposed changes.
Latterly I have been using Business Process Models not only to describe process flows but also define new organisations, roles and business rules enabling me to undertake ‘digital’ lean analysis and customer experience mapping. Combining the use of these tools with my communications skills and logical approach enables me to effect rapid change with the full engagement of the company.
