Our

Mission

Our mission is simple yet powerful:
To empower businesses with tailored consulting, implementation, and training solutions that drive real results.

One team dedicated to
growing businesses

While we come from diverse professional backgrounds. From leading departments in large corporations to specialised advisory roles.

We share common values of integrity, innovation, and dedication. When you engage Chase & Marshal, you'll work directly with our senior consultants (no big firm bureaucracy or getting passed off to junior staff). This means you get seasoned insight and hands on involvement from people who have been in the trenches of business and know what it takes to drive change.

Our team is led by experienced consultants who have successfully:

Advised companies through complex strategic shifts and growth phases.
Implemented cutting-edge technology projects and digital transformations.
Coached and trained hundreds of professionals in leadership and sales skills.
Managed marketing campaigns and business development

At the core of this mission is the belief that every organisation no matter its size or sector has the potential to achieve greater success and make a positive impact. We see ourselves as enablers of that potential. By delivering expert guidance and sharing knowledge, we aim to shorten your path to success and help you overcome obstacles faster and smarter than you could alone.

We are dedicated to:

Delivering tangible value in every engagement we measure our accomplishments by the improvements and growth our clients experience. Building capabilities, not creating dependence. Whether through consulting advice or training, we strive to equip your team with understanding and skills so you can continue to succeed long after our work is done.

Championing innovation and sustainability and encouraging businesses to embrace new ideas, technologies, and sustainable practices that future-proof their operations and contribute to a better world. In essence, our mission is to be the catalyst that helps your business not only solve today's problems, but also thrive tomorrow and beyond.

Our

Vision

To be the most trusted partner for businesses seeking to navigate the future with confidence, insight, and integrity.

We aspire to set the standard for what a boutique consulting firm can achieve: combining the agility and personalised service of a small team with the cutting-edge knowledge and professionalism you'd expect from a global firm.

In the years ahead, we see Chase & Marshal:

Continuously innovating our service offerings (for example, incorporating the latest advancements in AI, or new training methodologies) to meet the evolving needs of businesses.
Fostering a community of forward thinking leaders and organisations that learn from each other through our workshops, resources, and network, we want to connect clients and partners in ways that spark collabouration and collective growth.
Expanding our reach while maintaining quality perhaps opening additional locations or strategic partnerships in other parts of New Zealand (and even beyond), all while preserving the personal touch and high standards that define us.
Being a role model in ethical and sustainable business. We envision not only helping clients with sustainability, but also ensuring our own operations are carbon-conscious, community-oriented, and reflective of the positive change we advocate.
Ultimately, our vision is about impact. We want every business we work with to become stronger and more resilient for the future. When companies thrive adopting innovation, growing sustainably, and leading with purpose it strengthens our economy and community.

Chase & Marshal aims to contribute significantly to that story.

Why

Choose Us?

With so many consultancies and service providers out there, why do companies choose Chase & Marshal and stay with us?

Holistic Approach: We offer a rare combination of services under one roof – from strategy consulting to tech implementation to staff training. This means we can see the bigger picture of your business and ensure all the pieces work together. You won't need to juggle multiple consultants; we can handle multifaceted projects seamlessly.

Local Insight, Global Perspective: Being a New Zealand firm, we understand the local market dynamics, cultural nuances, and regulatory environment. Many of us have international experience too, so we bring global best practices and innovative ideas that we tailor for the NZ context. It's the best of both worlds.

Client-Centric Customisation: Everything we do is customised. We don't use cookie-cutter solutions because no two businesses are exactly alike. Our clients appreciate that we start by listening. We take their unique circumstances into account and design our engagements around their specific goals, industry, and team.

Track Record of Results: We're proud of the success stories we've been part of. From lifting a company's revenue by revamping their strategy, to cutting costs with process improvements, to boosting team productivity through training – our case studies demonstrate real outcomes. (See our Resources section for some examples.) We bring that proven expertise to each new client, with references available.

Responsive & Agile: Need a quick brainstorming session on a sudden issue? Have to pivot a project due to market changes? We stay flexible and responsive. As a smaller firm, we can adapt quickly and devote our full attention to your needs. You won't get lost in bureaucracy or wait weeks for answers. We pride ourselves on being just a phone call away and turning things around fast when it counts.

Long-Term Partnership: We aim to build lasting relationships. Many of our clients return for multiple projects or ongoing advice, effectively making us an extension of their company. We value that trust deeply. When you work with Chase & Marshal, you gain a partner who is genuinely invested in your success for the long haul, not just a vendor completing a transaction.
