Leveraging synergies to find the area of optimal value

Whilst under pressure and with time constraints I have found the theory of creating effective management strategies. Circular diagrams are the way forward, preferably multiple circular diagrams with an overlap in the centre. This overlap area though needs to clearly be labelled with something like "optimal value creation" or "point of optimum leverage".

Once this has been done you will be able to clearly advise clients where they need to be based on the diagram. The trick here is in the colouring and opacity of the diagram, this is where the professionals are sorted from the wannabe consultants. Work will be won or lost dependant on this one factor alone.
