Building a Management Consultancy for the Defence Sector


Listen Later

We had the pleasure of speaking with Roland Giles, Director and Co-Founder at Principeo, to explore the driving forces behind Principeo and his journey from consulting at Accenture to co-founding a management consultancy specialising in delivering tailored digital strategy and transformation solutions for Defence. 


He is also a Director at Warner McCall due to Principeo recently acquiring the firm, expanding their capabilities for increasingly higher-level work in Defense. 


We discuss the challenges facing defense leaders, the accelerating technological and geopolitical landscape, and how Principeo differentiates itself by providing small teams of senior experts to tackle complex, systemic problems. 


Roland also shares insights on the evolving consulting industry, the shift towards specialist firms, and the balance between purpose, impact, and enjoyment in building a business. 


Whether you're interested in defense, consulting, or entrepreneurship, he offers valuable insights on navigating an ever-changing world.
