OUR LEADERSHIP

Great People Deliver Great Results

When a client hires a consulting firm, they are not just hiring expertise or bandwidth – they are hiring people. We think our people are unique:

We have a lot of experience… more than 15 years on average!
75% of us have “Big 4” experience
60% of us have been both Big 4 consultants and clients (pretty unusual, and very useful)
60% of us have advanced degrees
We live full lives. Our ranks include marathon runners, movie extras, road and mountain bike racers, golfers, photographers, proud parents and more.

This means our clients get a well-rounded team of people with deep professional and life experience. People who can apply new thinking to new challenges. In short, people who provide a refreshing approach to business consulting.
