“We help you clarify the real issues and get them on the table where they can be solved. Because you can’t solve what you’re not talking about.”

We Are Not Those Guys
We are not consultants. At least the ones you think you know.
If you’ve worked with the shiny suits and been left with binders instead of tools your team is excited to use, we feel you. We’ve been there and we will never be that firm.
We won't take up space in your conference rooms or wander your halls fishing for work or talking to your boss about you.
We Are You
We have been in your shoes. Literally.
We’ve endured those endless leadership meetings when all we wanted to do was get things done. We know the itch of wasted time, resources and potential.
We won't waste your time.
What We Do
We won’t tell you what to do. Our process will guide you to figure it out.
We offer proven, research-backed tools and processes that enable you to do more with the same resources you already have. Your expertise applied to our process accelerates solutions and unravels the tough issues getting in the way of results.
We won't recreate what you've already done. We leverage that as a starting point to propel you farther.
Working Together
You know your business. We won’t insult your intelligence or change things for change’s sake.
Our job is to bring our proven (battle tested), research-backed tools and processes to enable you to move forward faster while creating alignment and increasing your team's capacity to deal with disruptive change.
We build solutions in collaboration with you, so they stand up long after we are gone.
We speak “executive” in kitchen English.
How We Are Different
Once issues are understood, we’ll push you to stop admiring the problem and dispense with the analysis paralysis that gets people swimming in circles so you can get things done. We would rather go live with 90% than see a client miss an opportunity waiting for perfection. Most of our clients are building the ‘plane’ while flying it. We’ll meet you there.
We grew up as business leaders. Nothing gets your attention like managing a P&L to create solutions that are workable in the field where they’re needed. We speak in Kitchen English and do our best to use terms and ideas that are understandable in the language of your industry.
We do the work, train the people and let you run your business, teaching leaders to execute without us. We provide toolkits that are easily embedded into your daily work based on proven and practical research that make us ‘sticking around’ obsolete. We are on-site when we need to be, but won’t tie up a conference room when we don’t.
We are flexible. We adjust our approach and solutions to your needs and cultural nuances. If you want cutting edge solutions, we’re there with you. Baby steps? We can do that to. We are comfortable working in front, behind or beside you.
You employ smart people to lead your company and leveraging them is often the most sustainable path forward. Where we can, we use techniques to get them unstuck and moving in the right direction. Where we can’t, we bring in specific expertise.
Our workshop experiences turn everything you know about corporate training upside down. You will learn skills while making progress on real issues or opportunities that are relevant to you, typically things that you have applied your best thinking to and haven’t been able to solve. This minimizes time spent on 'training', maximizes progress on real business issues, and ensures that new skills stick.
Our bias will always be to create alignment. We help get your leadership team and organization get on the same page, aligned to your strategy and, most importantly, to your customer. We rock at creating shared agendas and getting people on the same page, even when they could not disagree more.
