Making sense of business,naturally.

We help businesses make sense of the challenges and opportunities they face - so they have a clear sense of direction and purpose.

Business Sense With Copy.jpeg

We are an advisory business helping companies and their leadership teams navigate change, disruption, growth, and uncertainty.

Our work gives strategic purpose and momentum — often liberating resources by making them more connected and efficient.

Core outputs are confidence, clarity, enterprise value, and more focused people.

We work in the present — but can scenario plan for future eventualities. 

Our work is founded on extensive C Suite experience, intellectual rigor and the forensic analysis of a company's eco-system - how it is connected ( or unconnected ) and where its systems are unproductive or failing.

But critically, guided by an intuitive sense of what actually makes business sense.

We view this through a local/global lens across market category, geography, competitive set and company lifestage.

Enterprise Strategy

Help craft the present— and shape the future — enterprise and its leadership story. This is facilitated from an "outside-in" holistic perspective in partnership with a leadership team.

Through the lens of business ecology — a nature-inspired holistic approach to strategy — work with organizations and their leadership teams to effectively navigate and execute:​

  • Enterprise strategy

  • New business models 

  • Growth challenges

  • Enterprise transformation

  • Company turnarounds

  • New ventures

  • Intellectual property commercialization

  • Technology transfer

Not a “write a white paper and run” practice. Rather, will immerse with the client organization to co-create and execute recommendations. The focus is on the enterprise’s needs and agenda, not our own.

Leadership Support
Dialogue With Copy.jpeg

Coming from a systems thinking lens, as well as having sat in the chair of being a CEO and entrepreneur, I offer a unique set of eyes, ears, and experience to walk the talk with leaders as they navigate the complex leadership journey.

 

It is a whole person's journey. One with which I am familiar and experienced. This includes deep listening and dialogue. A journey I facilitate and support, including asking and helping to address difficult questions — which often uncover new opportunities.

Vision With Copy.jpeg

The journey of entrepreneurship is not a solo endeavor. I have entrepreneurship in my DNA. Several generations in fact. I have worked with entrepreneurs and venture creation for over 20 years.

 

I have served as a turnaround CEO of a water technology company and supported leaders and their teams through my professional practice over that time.​ And while I have taught graduate-level entrepreneurship and leadership, I believe entrepreneurs and leaders are enabled more than taught.

Addressing Critical Truths

Complexity With Copy.jpg

Do you have a "back burner" of issues, a vision or critical truth that may be a key to your future and your enterprise that you delay addressing year after year?  Did the pandemic bring them and other issues to the front burner?  

 

I work with entrepreneurs, CEOs, boards and thought leaders looking for a place to go deeper around such issues important to an organization.​ It could be the need for a new business model.  The turnaround of a company. A broken and dysfunctional system.  Aligning the culture of the company with a new vision and purpose. Post-pandemic trauma. 

 

This could include serving as a fractional and interim CEO or Co-CEO.

I have been there both as a CEO and working with Boards and executive teams, thus bring both an experienced and consultative perspective to leadership challenges and demands.

A creative systems thinker, I have a natural ability to see beyond obvious horizons for systems approaches and solutions to a business opportunity or dilemma.   

 

My skills and passions include curating and connecting original thinkers and doers to deliver solutions to complex problems.

 

I have worked with cross-cultural, geographic and generational teams – in person and virtually – for over two decades.

My ultimate value is as a committed and trusted confidant to leaders as they face their own and their organization’s moments of critical truth (s).

 

From developing a new business strategy or model to a company turnaround to leadership transitions, I embrace complexity and work alongside leaders as they navigate their own complex leadership and organizational journey.
