Dodson Group Case Study: Aligned for Growth

Dodson Group is a leading supplier of high-performance transmission components for motorsport and high-end vehicles, trusted by workshops and racers worldwide. As a fast-growing, family-founded business operating at the cutting edge of automotive engineering, they know what it takes to deliver precision under pressure on and off the track.

Problem

Dodson Group had experienced impressive, organic growth over several years. But with greater scale came complexity and the need to move from reactive to strategic. As they prepared for the next phase, the leadership team wanted to operate with more alignment, clarity, and intent.

Solution

We started by listening. Discovery interviews across the business helped surface what was working and what was getting in the way. Leadership insights gave us the clarity to shape a tailored plan focused on unlocking performance and preparing for what’s next.

Through a structured and collaborative process, we worked alongside Dodson’s leadership team to define what they stood for, how they wanted to lead, and what the business would need to thrive at the next level.

Impact

The result was a more confident, future-ready organisation. Together, we delivered:

  • Leadership team alignment and a shared team charter

  • Organisation design that supports growth

  • Strategic hiring plans for future capability

  • Succession planning, including gap analysis and development plans

  • Targeted leadership coaching to embed change and build confidence

What you did really well was listen. Even on my bad days, you understood what I was trying to say, made sense of it, and delivered exactly what I needed even when I wasn’t sure I’d explained it clearly.
