About our Director Monty Sacher

Sacher Associates really began at the University of Cape Town in South Africa where Monty Sacher, our founder and Principal, of Sacher Associates (Australia) Pty Ltd, was studying a Business Science Degree. In the fourth year tutorials, the course required him to analyse one real company a week from all possible angles such as Marketing, Finance, Human Resources, Production etc.

To Monty they all seemed to have the same problems:

"No unified sense of direction and an inability to translate the strategic plan into the everyday actives of the people doing the work, disengaged unmotivated workers, lack of role clarity and focus, a mismatch between the competencies demanded by the organization and the competencies supplied by employees etc."

Monty then spent the next 25 years identifying and successfully implementing what he calls the ten essential components of team performance. First in a large organization in South Africa called South African Breweries (now SABMiller, the second largest brewing company in the world) and then in Sacher Associates (Australia) Pty Ltd which he founded in 1990.

Monty believes that if people are more productive at work they can be happier which flows through to their families and to society. He founded Sacher Associates to express his commitment to contributing to the twin goals of simultaneously improving productivity and quality of working life in organizations of all sizes. Sacher Associates has established performance systems in some of the most successful organizations in the world.

The essence of our core work involves the development and translation of the organisation mission, strategic goals, values and measures into the everyday output, measures and targets of the people doing the work and to provide assistance in the development, implementation and continuous improvement of the following basic business systems:

• Strategic Business Planning
• Performance Management
• KPI/Performance Measurement
• Balanced Scorecard
• Performance Appraisal
• Communication/visual feedback
• Team performance
• Strategic training and development

So as to measurably improve performance against predetermined targets. Our objective is to implement a performance system that is hierarchically and mathematically connected to the organisation’s vision and that will focus all levels of the organisation on achieving its vision.
