St. Angelos Computer Academy
Full management responsibility for revenue growth, classroom effectiveness, recruitment, and organisational strategy as Consulting CEO.
The challenge
St. Angelos Computer Academy needed senior operational leadership to address performance gaps across the business. The academy faced challenges across four connected functions: revenue generation, classroom delivery quality, faculty and staff recruitment, and strategic direction. These were not independent problems. Revenue stagnation was connected to classroom quality, which was connected to recruitment, which was connected to the absence of a clear strategic plan. The academy needed a single leadership point who could address all four simultaneously rather than engage separate advisors for each function.

How we approached it
Ishwar Jha served as Consulting CEO, taking direct operational responsibility for revenue, classroom effectiveness, recruitment, and strategy. The engagement was not an advisory mandate in the conventional sense. It was a full management engagement where Ishwar held accountability for outcomes across all four functions. Revenue initiatives were designed and executed alongside classroom quality improvements, recruitment was rebuilt to support both functions, and a strategic plan was developed and operationalised during the engagement rather than delivered as a document.
