About Quarterli

“Quarterli® is based on what I’ve learned from launching, leading and consulting with businesses over the last 25 years.

"Quarterli® is based on what I’ve learned from launching, leading and consulting with businesses over the last 25 years. My clients found that the simplicity of the Growth Probability Matrix™ was delivering real value to their boardroom discussions, so I wanted to share it.

The Quarterli® team have developed a sophisticated, but simple online tool that business leaders can use to engage their senior teams and develop better habits as they work ‘on the business’ together.

Crucially, it's designed so that it doesn’t require expensive consultancy support. It’s not meant to replace good consultancy, but it does help leadership teams maximise their own potential and use external experts in a more efficient and effective manner.

By helping businesses help themselves, it’s allowed me to support more organisations than I ever could through one to one consulting or coaching."

Four years in the making

2016
Mike created the Growth Probability Matrixtm in order to encourage “a simpler way to think about growth”. He started to use this consultancy, coaching and non-exec director roles to prove its effectiveness.
2018
The new tool evolved rapidly: Unique algorithms were developed to measure Senior Team Alignment, objective-setting and tracking capabilities were introduced to help businesses turn “reflection” into “action”.
2017
An online tool, based on the Growth Probability Matrixtm, was developed to help more MDs, CEOs and business owners reflect on what they’d built so far and might be holding them back.
2019
Mike worked with several cohorts of business leaders to explore how the tool helped each of them work’on the business’ with their senior teams. Further improvements were made and Quarterli® was born

I've never heard of the Growth Probability Matrix. What is it?
I've never heard of the Growth Probability Matrix. What is it?
The Growth Probability Matrix™ cuts through the often-overwhelming amount of business advice out there and proposes just two fundamental levers that can be used to improve your chances of success. The Matrix draws a crucial distinction between the Growth Potential of your business and the ability of the senior team to unlock this potential through Effective Execution. Both are key to shareholder value, but one is often (subconsciously) prioritised over the other. Download The Growth Probability Matrix eBook to find out more.
Who else can see the results of each survey and our Leadership Alignment results?
Who else can see the results of my personal introspections and my senior team survey results?
No-one. The scores and comments are for your eyes only, unless you choose to share them. Quarterli® generates all results automatically without any human intervention.

The system also automatically generates the live Matrix from the aggregated result of all surveys done worldwide. It updates every night and is designed to give some comfort to business leaders that their peers do not always rate their business as "Full Steam Ahead". I.e. many are in the same boat and are committed to improving the way they and their senior teams work 'on the business'.
How will using Quarterli® help us as a leadership team.
How will using Quarterli® help us as a leadership team.
The simplicity of the Matrix helps bring clarity to your thinking, even when embroiled in the day to day. This means you make better decisions. Once adopted by the whole senior team, it brings a common language and establishes a shared view of where the business stands today and what needs to change. It encourages a quarterly rhythm that changes the way senior teams think, speak and act, and dramatically improves your chances of success. Download The Quarterli® Habit eBook to find out more.

Quarterli® is designed to put you in control of your growth journey. Business leaders worldwide can access it at a fraction of the cost of hiring a Management Consultant.
Does Quarterli® remove the need for consultancy?
Does Quarterli® remove the need for consultancy?
No. Quarterli® is not designed to replace good consultancy, but it is there to help business leaders take back control and use consultancy in a more efficient and effective manner: Too many CEOs, Managing Directors and Business Owners effectively outsource their growth strategy and/or their 'on the business' activity. Consultancies are only too pleased to feast on this over weeks, months and years but it rarely delivers full value for the business leader and can hamper the development of the senior team.

Highly skilled consultants can add huge value to your business and Quarterli® introduces a structured approach that can help you become a better buyer of these specialists. You might actually end up using more consultancy but in shorter, sharper doses designed to deliver well-defined outcomes that Quarterli® will help you describe and measure.
Does that mean you are going to use this to sell me consultancy?
Does that mean you are going to use this to sell me consultancy?
No. We do not have team of consultants or growth coaches.

If you are introduced to Quarterli® by a local consultancy or business support organisation, then that is because they want to help you work ‘on the business’. If you subscribe using their unique URL then you’ll see their logo under the Quarterli® logo when using the system.

We don’t pay them, they don’t pay us, ever. If you end up using them for specialist support in the future, then that’s your decision. We’re not party to any arrangement, won’t know anything about it and certainly won’t be taking a cut of any fee that you pay to them.
