Tell us about yourself

Serving in various executive leadership roles, the primary issue that weighed on me was the ability to see around the corner and be predictive in the business. I have spent more than 12 years developing consulting services, or "playbooks," that assist executive teams in objectively understanding their current state and predicting the future state.

What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?

Working with clients, such as Staples, to streamline their operations and gain significant efficiencies has been particularly rewarding.

What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?

After spending a career in corporate America, the toughest challenge in starting a new business is the stark reality of working alone. Motivation and success fall squarely on your shoulders.

What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?

  1. Define your purpose: who/why are you going to help?
  2. Define your product or services: how are you going to help?
  3. Define and measure success: what have you helped to accomplish?
