Kéa has demonstrated its ability to provide comprehensive general management support on critical issues that shape the future of their clients' businesses. The Kea Group is a testament to this expertise.
The role of the consultant has evolved beyond merely diagnosing and prescribing solutions to improve company performance. It now encompasses guiding leaders through complex organizational transitions to develop long-term transformation strategies.
As a consulting architect, Kéa employs an integrated ecosystem that goes beyond the traditional scope of strategy and management to build the future of companies with agility. This ecosystem is built on the hybridization of expertise, relying on the unique combination of skills and knowledge that each team member brings to the table.
With 4 key areas of intervention:
-
Retail and Consumer Goods, both historical sectors of Kéa;
-
Industry, with a focus on aerospace/defense, construction and healthcare;
-
Services, especially financial.
A group of entrepreneurs
The Kea Group is a collective of committed entrepreneurs, unified by a common set of values and a belief that, in the context of the 3 disruptions currently facing us - digital, strategic innovation and positive impact - people are the driving force behind value creation.
The group is structured around 3 areas of expertise :
-
Impact & Responsible Transformation
-
Digital, data & technology
-
Strategic innovation
Our mission is to support our clients in navigating these challenges by providing guidance on responsible transformation and CSR, performance improvement, digital transition, globalization of markets, and other key issues. It is our responsibility to help them reconcile these three disruptive factors in order to transform their businesses. This is the only way they will be able to resist the power of GAFAM and unicorns. In the European Innovation Scoreboard, French companies still too often belong to the group of followers. We can help them do much better.
The challenges of a young ETI
The DareWin growth plan, which aims to double Kéa's turnover and workforce before 2026, is designed to make Kea the leading French consulting group for C and E-Levels. This objective is based on a strategy of expansion for the Kéa Group and the hybridization of skills through external growth operations.
"Now recognized as a leading strategy consultancy, Kéa has reached a pivotal point in its development. It is imperative that we accelerate our pace. The significant challenges posed by the disruptions that companies are experiencing provide us with the opportunity to demonstrate our expertise in transformation through a multidisciplinary approach. New strategic fields are opening up, and it is time for us to reinvent efficient and sustainable business models that are better anchored in our century”. Arnaud Gangloff, CEO of the Kéa Group
It is also a question of embodying an alternative to Anglo-Saxon firms. We aim to become a European leader in responsible transformation, in accordance with our status as a mission-driven company." Similarly, our international expansion is distinctive in the consulting industry. We have formed an alliance of independent firms, equipped to deliver the same level of excellence and expertise in strategic transformation across the globe.

Interdisciplinarity, a mindset on projects
In addition to the expertise of the Kéa Group, we rely on external partners to support our customers throughout the value creation chain, enabling us to provide them with the most efficient response. We are dedicated to defining and implementing a strategy that ensures both short-term performance and future growth. Our ability to articulate different time horizons in a visionary approach is what differentiates us and adds value. When combined with a cross-fertilization approach, our expertise proves to be doubly profitable, driving innovation and added value.
Some of our partners, listed non-exhaustively, include:
Founded in 1997 by Richard Barrett, the Barrett Values Center provides quantification tools to measure and manage the culture of an organization and the leadership improvement needs of its leaders and managers. The associated methodology is based on a classification of the values, principles or motivating factors of employees and aims to identify the gaps between personal values, the values of the corporate culture to date and the desired values, between different groups, or even possibly between two companies wanting to get closer. Examination of limiting values makes it possible to measure the cultural entropy of an organization, ie the amount of energy expended in non-productive work; it is a measure of existing conflicts, frictions and frustrations. Kea & Partners is one of the BVC / CVA approved firms in France.
Enioka is one of the Kéa Group's leading partners for managing the complexity of information systems, notably through an ultra-efficient modeling service. Its services are based on innovative tools and meta-models developed by the firm.
Kea & Partners contributed to the incubation of Tech Care for All (TC4A) , a start-up specializing in the deployment of e-health technologies in Africa and Asia. This partnership offers healthcare players proven digital solutions, supporting their adaptation and deployment in local contexts.
In the course of our work on projects, we occasionally call on the expertise of QualiQuanti , which defends an enriched approach to studies - the hyperquali - that mobilizes more than 500,000 consumers worldwide. This approach is based on a holistic and cultural one that takes into account brands and markets.
It is imperative that our practice of the profession evolve at the same pace as our customers. We actively contribute to numerous clubs and think tanks, including the Institute of Sociodynamics, Community of Mission-Driven Businesses, IFM Foundation, Sully Committee, and many others.
