Cross-functional advisor
Since I have consulting experience in nearly all areas of a business - from strategy to marketing, finance and supply chain - the advice I provide are multi-faceted and consider implications from all angles.
Julia acted as our interim Chief of Staff for 4 months and I called her our ‘Swiss Army Knife’, as she was able to advise us on all aspects of our business and drive several agile cross-functional projects ranging from an eCommerce platform launch, a new manufacturing facility set-up, organizational design to helping bring our company public. She is very strategic but she also rolls up her sleeves to get things done. She has been a great asset to our fast-paced, entrepreneurial business and I would highly recommend her.

If you want a big binder with lots of slides, these aren’t the consultants for you. They are productive and down-to-earth and smart. Mary, Carol, Kevin and Julia were quick to understand our complex, rapidly-evolving organization when they started the work to transform our culture. They helped us take a perceived ‘soft’ issue and develop the ‘hard’ insights we needed to justify taking action. They used Agile to help us rapidly develop practical and powerful steps to shift our culture. Transforming culture is a marathon, but our leadership is committed and we are seeing the change in how we work.
Paula Keays, President of McKesson Canada, December 2018
The team partnered with us to develop a compelling and material case for investing in a globally coordinated sales approach. They quickly built an understanding of our business and drew from industry best practices and their own research and experience, allowing our team to focus on their day-to-day priorities while accelerating the pursuit of this important new growth initiative. They provided us with pragmatic processes and tools so that we can move quickly into execution.
