The purpose of the Feniks Award
The Feniks Award aims to encourage quality, innovation, and success in project approaches while raising the profile of the consulting industry. As emphasized by Nenad Šutanovac, Director of GZS-ZPSD:

Consultants bring new knowledge, experiences from other projects, modern methodologies, and innovative perspectives, all aimed at delivering business benefits far exceeding the investment.”
Rescuing a family business on the brink of collapse
This success story began with the book “In the Shoes of Parents” by ddr. Milan Krajnc, published by SIRIUS Laboratory. The book delves into the complexities of family businesses and explores intergenerational relationships that often determine their success or failure.
A struggling family business, facing imminent collapse, reached out to SIRIUS Laboratory after reading the book. Leveraging insights from the book and the Dynamic Leadership Model, the SIRIUS team developed a tailored communication strategy to address the company’s challenges.
Key actions taken during the project
- Communication Analysis: Assessing existing communication patterns between family members and company management
- Implementing New Approaches: Introducing structured dynamic communication with clear goals, conflict resolution methods, and improved mutual understanding
- Sustainable Transformation: Establishing long-term solutions by creating a Communication Code
Results achieved
The project delivered remarkable results. Within months, the company stabilized its operations, improved internal communication, and began achieving positive financial outcomes. The key to success was customizing solutions to the company’s specific needs and applying the innovative methodologies of the Dynamic Leadership Model.
Why the Feniks Award matters
The Feniks Award confirms SIRIUS Laboratory as a leader in innovative consulting solutions in Slovenia. With its commitment to quality, adaptability, and innovation, the company helps organizations tackle their toughest challenges.
