About Strategic Business Development

Strategic Business Development (ACN: 078 670 210) is an Australian based business advisory firm specialising in the analysis, planning and profit development of businesses.

We have had extensive experience applying similar processes to both private and public sector organisations.

Company Principal, Russell Cummings, has had over 25 years comprehensive experience as a management consultant working throughout Australia especially the ACT, NSW, Queensland and Victoria. He is currently coaching business clients in Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom.

Strategic Business Development focuses primarily on working closely with clients to ensure that plans are realistic, actionable and have the capacity to significantly impact on the bottom line profitability of the organisations and individuals involved.

Detailed analysis and planning systems have been developed "in-house" and are used to maximise results while minimising costs. Many of these systems will be available through SBD On-Line.

Strategic Business Development is licensed as a Mindshop Facilitator. The Mindshop network provides significant advantages in terms of proven systems , world’s best practice, and products and access to an International network of Business Development Consultants.

Strategic Business Development has an extensive network of Associates with a diverse range of technical skills that are available to complement the expertise of the project team as required. This provides the flexibility to tackle challenges normally outside the scope and capacity of a firm of this size without the cost burden imposed by the overheads of a larger organisation.

Mindshop

Mindshop is an international training organisation specialising in personal and business improvement. The "Mindshop process" started its continuous development in 1986.

Drawing from the "best practice" tools and processes and its own intellectual property, the Mindshop Process has rapidly become a continuous improvement process for organisations such as the Commonwealth Bank, Nightfreight PLC, Amcor Flexibles, Brivis Australia and Allied Bakeries PLC.

Mindshop Facilitators

Mindshop licenses Facilitators around the world to use the process within their organisations.

MindShop currently has in excess of 250 licenced Facilitators (and over 300 business leaders) world wide with the majority of these concentrated in Australia, New Zealand, USA and the United Kingdom.
