Coaching

Do you have the creativity of a cucumber, the emotional intelligence of an angry badger, or the business acumen of a blank excel sheet? No worries, some of those are skills that you can learn and some of those are attributes that you can work to turn up or down. Don’t know the difference between skills and attributes? No worries, we can work on that too. I don’t make any wild promises that you will suddenly valut up the corporate ladder and arrive at the c-suite in a year – but I can provide you with the frameworks necessary to start making more sense of your world.

Individual coaching can expand your perspective, inspire you to take action, provide a challenge to your world view, and give support when needed. Individual needs vary from person to person and normally revolve around a single 90 minute session once per month with reading assignments in between.

If you want an idea on how to start making sense of your world, and what I mean by ‘frameworks’; a reading assignment for you. Regardless of your education level, work history, or seniority in your organization – you will find something of value here:

Start Up and Small Business Consulting

Do you have a great idea for a product, but you are getting drowned in all the development challenges and discouraged by all the knowledge gaps you are trying to close? Are you constantly learning the hard way and getting frustrated with the stream of surprise costs courtesy of your crash course in manufacturing? Don’t worry, it’s not rokkit science. We have helped to launch two sub brands for existing manufacturers and successfully helped launch two other rising stars. 

Our product development consulting is focused on consumer packaged goods product development, delivery, and scaling operations. We have extensive experience in defining value propositions, refining existing product offerings, or getting your initial idea to market. Our primary expertise is in food manufacturing, distribution, and development through all channels. There are no easy buttons, seriously – we looked. But there are common pitfalls and traps to avoid in getting your idea off the ground. Regardless of your size we can help identify the pitfalls in your path (ever hear of GS1, know what an ASN is?), and give you ways to mitigate them in advance.
