Special Situations Advisors
An organization experiences a challenging event, either in pursuit of an ambition or being forced to respond to an external development or outside actor. You don’t experience it often – so it’s unfamiliar. It’s complex – so it’s uncertain and ambiguous. And if the stakes are high as well, you are almost certainly facing a special situation.
Rosemont handles an entirely different problem-class: open-ended problems. In the early stages these don’t have an obvious answer or clear path forward, and require more than a single expertise alone, like law or finance. Approaching such problem requires shifting the focus to competent orientation and navigation instead.
