Beyond the Quarter's MISSION is to create a world where
Business serves Humanity rather than People serving Business.
We believe that business is a part of the human experience.
That translates to the following 4 core VALUES:
Business is human and its purpose is to make lives better;
Business is a serious endeavour best approached with humour;
Honesty and respect are essential in good relationships and in business;
Progress in life and business are the direct result of applied curiosity.
Beyond the Quarter is a new kind of consultancy. New because:
- We focus on building businesses that are as much about their purpose and values as they are about their commercial success;
- We focus on impact over dogma - we see agile, mentoring, coaching, consulting, training and IP as tools to use to create outcomes, rather than ends in themselves;
- We are online first, but hybrid when needed - bringing the most relevant talent to bear based on fit rather than location.
Beyond the Quarter's core business is to help businesses succeed by and while making a positive impact on people and planet. In addition, in for the last few years we've undertaken 2 initiatives which align with our core purpose and work of making business better.
- We donate 2% of all sales to TreeSisters: women seeding change in order to support their work with complementary initiatives of reforestation, and female leadership.
- We make (interest-free) microloans to female entrepreneurs in developing countries with the tax savings we make from our donations through Lendwithcare.
Our managing partners
We’re a small team of founders who have scaled and exited. We walk the walk, and care about doing it right.
I'm Iyas, Managing Partner at Beyond the Quarter. I've led companies from 2 man startup to a team of around 500; from plateaus to rapid growth; from implosion to turnaround; through acquiring and being acquired; through IPO and a high 8-figure trade-sale.
Along the way, I set up a charity that's helped thousands of children in refugee camps, under occupation and in war zones.
All of that happened by focussing on values, on execution, and on having an absurd amount of fun along the way.
Today, with Beyond the Quarter, I use what I've learned to support entrepreneurs and leaders build remarkable companies. For some, that has meant doubling the business. Others, turning profitable, or dramatically improving margin. Sometimes to exit at unexpectedly high multiples.
But always companies that lead with purpose and values, are profitable, create a positive impact and are fun to work in.
