From context to choices. From choices to capabilities.

Strathego is Francesco di Castri’s personal consulting method. Analytical depth and tools depend on the decision, the risk and the organisation’s capabilities.

Context

Understand the system.

Objectives, activities, assets, stakeholders and constraints.

Understand

Assess risks and relationships.

Threats, vulnerabilities, interdependencies and consequences.

Prioritise

Distinguish what needs attention.

Critical issues and criteria for comparing exposures.

Decide

Compare alternatives.

Options, consequences, responsibilities and residual risk.

Build

Turn decisions into capabilities.

Controls, procedures, roles or preparedness, according to the engagement.

Adapt

Review and update.

Evidence from the work and changes in context.

One Method, Different Situations

Strathego does not apply ready-made solutions. Each engagement starts by understanding the context, distinguishing facts from assumptions, identifying priorities and comparing options.

The six phases give the work structure and continuity without turning it into a rigid procedure. Tools, depth of analysis and ways of working vary with the situation, with a consistent aim: to turn the information available into reasoned decisions and practical action, review results and adjust direction when needed.
