A business is very similar to a growing child that needs constant parenting. The way a guardian must mould his parenting style as the child grows up, businesses also need to be handled differently at different stages."The approach to managing business operations is one of the major challenges faced by companies today. In the early days, a business is managed in an ad-hoc manner, which might result in an inefficient or unsystematic way of functioning," explains T R Shankar, the Co-Founder of Vantage Management Consulting, a management and financial consulting firm. The founding team understands the problems plaguing upcoming businesses and thus functions on the core belief that these business entities need to transform themselves from merely running the business to managing the business successfully.

This is where Vanatge's vast experience comes in," adds Manjula Kannan, the other half of the founding team.
