What we do

The global leader in turning strategy into action

In 1986 Henrik Ekelund took a look at the management consulting space and had a vision of the future. While many firms were able to help their clients find the right strategy, their clients often still struggled to execute. And Henrik knew why. 

 

The best strategy in the world will fail if it doesn’t consider the business’s most valuable asset: Its people.

 

Henrik founded BTS to do things differently, to create a human-centered consulting firm. Unlike other consultancies, BTS doesn’t believe in cookie-cutter solutions to business problems. We apply a relentless focus on quality to create deeply customized, fun, and powerful experiences that provide your team with the tools they need to deliver results in the real world. 

 

Thirty years later, BTS has grown from its modest start in Stockholm, Sweden, to become a global player. Now serving 30 of the world’s 100 largest companies and 60 of the Fortune 100, we’re still just getting started. 

Our Values

Positive spirit & fun

We believe that a “can do” attitude and humor enhance a successful business. We look at problems openly and view them as opportunities.

honEsty, integrity

We believe in being loyal to those who are not present. We believe in giving and receiving feedback constructively. We believe in treating people as equals and in respecting others’ differences.

Opportunity based on merit

We reward and provide people with opportunities based on results and competencies. We make decisions and evaluate ideas based on their facts and merits. We achieve success through hard and effective work.

Putting the team first

We believe that BTS’s success depends on teamwork and if the team needs support we do our very best to provide it. We believe in putting the team first in individual decisions and in thinking of the individual in team decisions.

Lasting value for clients

We strive to build long-term relationships with our clients to create a legacy for the client and their organization. We focus on driving results forward – in learning, improved behavior and business performance. We encourage the learning, development and rewarding of BTS and its staff. We create our growth through our clients’ success and our active business generation.

Excellence through professionalism

We strive to deliver top quality solutions and services, within deadlines, to exceed client expectations. We balance client and BTS competencies, best practices and methods to achieve optimal results.

Sustainability

Better business, better world

BTS is not content changing business strategies and bottom lines alone; we’re committed to leaving the world a better place than we found it.

 

In service of creating lasting change, we leverage our strengths in business acumen and leadership development to provide educators and future entrepreneurs in underserved populations with skills to help guide them towards a lifetime of success.
