about us
The world is awash with consultants that share wisdom from the past. Some of them even once had impressive careers as managing partners. Others have gathered wisdom without ever having been in 'the trenches'. We at TGO Consulting believe that the strategies that have worked well in the past are not necessary what is best for tomorrow.
If you do what you did, you get what you've got. In order to navigate the future, fresh, critical and independent thinking is needed. No recycling of old tricks and no parroting other people. We at TGO Consulting will always keep thinking independent, critical and out-of-the-box. We have an unrivalled ability to innovate.
"if you do what you did - you get what you got"
The TGO Value Matrix© shows that ‘value’ is related to the Return On Investment for the client (to what extend the investment in legal fees contribute to bottom-line profit) and the level of Commoditization (the number of experienced lawyers, qualified for the matter).
There has never been a linear relation between time and value. We invented the Creation-Production-Divide Concept©, a revolutionary new way to explain in what part of the process lays the value to your clients. This insight is widely considered a gamechanger in the industry.
Succession remains a sensitive and complex topic. The TGO power curve© analysis immediately shows succession and leadership vulnerabilities in the firm. This is just one of our data based models in use.
We have developed the TGO Sustainability Scan©, precisely tailored to the legal profession. Our sustainability practice is headed by Mansi Jasuja who is an internationally renowned expert on Sustainability and Diversity.

our social responsibility
At TGO Consulting we are committed to making a difference in society. This commitment is deeply embedded in everything we do. Integrity, decency and sustainability are three of the fundamental pillars on which we build our business. We will always strive to do the right thing as it comes to people and planet. In doing so we have pledged to reduce our carbon footprint by 33% over the next 3 years. This will mean less travel and if we travel we will offset the carbon emissions created. It also means that we will preferably only buy sustainable materials and equipment. We will use all our stuff as long as possible and make sure it is properly recycled when it finally reaches the end of its lifecycle.
supporting culture
We are members of ‘Die Gesellschaft der Freunde von Bayreuth’ (Society of Friends of Bayreuth). The Bayreuth Festival is one of the most prestigious musical events in the world. The passion and fervor it instils, year after year, makes it absolutely unique. The festival is held in August. Each artist is giving up their summer break in order to perform at the festival. The Society each year since 1949 makes a substantial financial contribution in order to make this all possible.
