Our Story

ConsultBrain started in 2005 as a personal blog which reflected on the interfaces between technology, business and people. In 2014, Consultbrain Management (Pty) Ltd. was registered as a strategy consultancy by our current managing director Botha Kruger, a consultant and entrepreneur with a 20+ year track record of working across sectors and industries in the Southern African Development Community (SADC). ConsultBrain is a network firm. We work small and on location with our clients, and where required, scale up our team with specialists based on the client’s needs. The expertise of our network of specialists spans decades of business, organisational management and advisory experience.

The name ConsultBrain succinctly summarises our company ethos and approach to business:

Have an open mind and consult as many brains as possible in life and in business. Critically engage with new ideas and thoughts, and share original and daring perspectives with others. Confront personal and organisational challenges in a structured way, to keep moving forward and to keep on learning.

This open-minded and flexible approach is the cornerstone of how ConsultBrain works. In our engagements, we aim to ensure that what we offer – external insights, process structure, facilitation support and change management – are used to the maximum benefit of a client’s organisation. We engage as a “thinking partner” – someone to work with executive and management teams to think in new ways about their organisations and to rise above day-to-day operational issues. Once the thinking and planning is done, we love to get involved in implementation, to guide the process of change through its full cycle.
