Business Management Is A Challenge Under the Best of Circumstances

25 Years of Business Ownership and 14 Years of Non Profit Management - Put them to work for your organization.

BUSINESS MANAGEMENT

I owned and managed a mid-size company for thirty-two years.  Even with a large and very capable, talented and loyal team of employees, a business owner still wears several hats and is expected to change hats several times during the day.  Most business owners have an accountant, a lawyer, an insurance agent and maybe even a board of directors.   But very few have a business advisor that will take the time to listen to what issues keep you up at night.  What are the next steps you want to take and how will you execute them successfully?  Let’s discuss them and see if we can help.

DEFENSE AND THE MILITARY

We have spent the last several years living under the cloud of uncertainty otherwise known as Continuing Resolutions (CRs). The Federal Government still has not approved an operating budget.

NON PROFIT MANAGEMENT

Easily, one of the most demanding and complicated business platforms, successful management of a non-profit organization requires a thorough understanding of complex management policies and regulations.

PUBLIC POLICY AND GOVERNMENT RELATIONS

Public policy and effective advocacy is now, and has always been about proven integrity, building relationships and establishing trust. I have devoted the past 40 years building my reputation on these core principles.

STRATEGIC PLANNING

Perhaps one of the most misunderstood concepts in business applications.  Our approach to strategic planning is elemental.  The ultimate goal in completing a strategic plan should be to assist the client in identifying their future direction and providing them with practical steps to accomplish it, with a plan to measure progress and periodic reassessments.  A successful strategic plan is NOT a document that you adopt and file away until your next challenge.
