Encon is a West Australian-owned advisory, project management and development management consultancy operating across complex projects in education, health, residential, commercial, retail, industrial, social infrastructure and specialist recreation. The business currently holds 50+ live projects under management, with an estimated aggregate construction value of circa $1.8 billion, reflecting a sustained portfolio of multi-year, high-complexity work across both public and private clients.
Encon's strategic focus is the deliberate diversification of its public project portfolio, particularly in major projects, infrastructure, defence and energy. The business has built a strong foundation in front-end certainty, disciplined governance and senior-led delivery: positioning it well for the next phase of growth.
What is needed now is a structured conversation with the leadership team to test the current strategy against the opportunity set in front of it, surface where alignment, capability and positioning need to evolve and translate that into a clear action plan.
This workshop is designed to:
The engagement is built around one structured workshop with the Encon leadership team, with pre-work and a follow-up write-up to make sure the conversation is both rigorous and immediately actionable.
A pre-scoping discussion with Mike to sharpen the focus, confirm the participant group and tailor the workshop frame to where Encon is right now. Development of preparation questions for each participant, sent in advance, so leaders arrive with their thinking already in motion.
Facilitation of a three-to-four-hour session with the leadership team. The shape is designed to move from broad strategic perspective into specific opportunities and decisions, with space held for honest discussion. The session closes with networking and a debrief over drinks.
Synthesis of the conversation into a clear, decision-ready document: key insights, agreed priorities, opportunities to pursue, and a written action plan with owners and a sensible time horizon.
The engagement includes:
Three to four hours of facilitated workshop with the leadership team, followed by networking and an informal debrief.
Date and venue to be confirmed in the pre-scoping discussion.
A single fixed fee covers all four scope items: pre-scoping, preparation questions, facilitation, and the written action plan.
