The challenge
Helping a sky planter business reach new heights
Design leader Boskke made its name with its award-winning Sky Planters, which save space by hanging plants upside down from the ceiling. When its founding partners needed to kickstart new business growth, they asked DK&A Managing Director David Kester for coaching in strategy development.
The approach
Overhauling the company strategy for an international move
As Boskke prepared to move from New Zealand to the UK, David worked with the founders – empowering them to review their strategy, processes and products. He also helped them set up an interim non-Exec Board and streamline their plans, structures and roles.
The impact
-
Leaders nurtured

-
Company relocated
