Turning Ideas into Action: GCL Environmental’s New Approach to Prioritizing Expansion Opportunities

Founded in 2008, GCL environmental ltd. is an environmental consulting company specializing in managing and mitigating environmental liabilities for their clients. With over 3,000 successful projects, the firm sought to enhance their capabilities and pinpoint new growth opportunities. Growth Catalyst partnered with GCL Environmental to refine their expansion strategy.

GCL Environmental faced:

• Numerous Ideas Without Strategy: Struggled to prioritize and implement impactful opportunities from a range of ideas.
• Unstructured Focus: Needed a structured approach to narrowing their focus and creating a strategic plan.
• Undefined Expansion Path: Required a comprehensive evaluation of current opportunities.

Growth Catalyst helped GCL Environmental:

• Strategic Planning: Developed a plan prioritizing immediate wins and setting the stage for long-term growth.
• Structured Opportunity Evaluation: Provided a framework to evaluate and identify the most promising opportunities.
• Operational and Cultural Insights: Offered insights to leverage strengths and address gaps.

“The biggest gift that we received from the Growth Catalyst program was that we came in with a whole bunch of ideas on what we could do, and it really helped us narrow our focus and come up with a strategic plan on how to get there. We still have some of these ideas in the background, but it’s really allowed us to hone in on immediate wins and plan for longer-term growth.”
— Calinda McEwen, Senior Operations Lead, GCL Environmental
