Scientific Principles

We apply a wide range of scientific principles to our engagements, focusing on decision-making processes and specific methodologies. We collect and analyze key information to assess the client’s business environment and identify issues and opportunities.

Following this principled approach, Spratley Advisors provides radical, transformational insights, often turning existing practices and perceptions upside down to address even the most entrenched challenges. We create a clear, concise strategic focus and develop creative solutions to rapidly achieve and exceed our client’s strategic, operational or sales goals.

Reading the Water

Successful fly fishing is not just about casting your line anywhere in the stream. There are strategic decisions to be made, like choosing the right fly and casting it to where the fish are likely to be. These decisions are best supported by measured, scientific observation of the environment and extensive experience. Understanding what the fish are eating allows for strategic fly choice, and this coupled with learning the areas trout prefer in a stream or “reading the water” will increase your chances of catching fish.

In the spirit of supporting strategic decision making through scientific methodology, Spratley’s Reading the Water is a weekly publication that shares valuable strategic insights, bringing a scientific perspective to common business problems.

Reading the Water is curated by our founder John McGraw PhD MSc, who has 15+ years of consulting and strategy development experience with clients from start-ups to Fortune 100 companies.
