Personalized Solutions that are Measurable and Meaningful
Personalized Solutions that are Measurable and Meaningful
I have a comprehensive business assessment system to help identify gaps and unfulfilled opportunities. Following a business diagnostic, I will provide a full report with a project plan with timelines and milestones. We are not a one-size-fits-all solution company…we provide personalized solutions that fit an individual organization’s needs.
I bring data-backed business diagnostics and a proven alignment series. I am proactive, creative, and solution-oriented. Most importantly, I stay with you from project start to finish as your fractional chief strategy and operations officer.
Leadership and change management consultant. Well versed in agile methodologies emphasizing people over processes and tools. Change management requires adaptability and flexibility. As a change management leader, leading associates into new processes and systems requires leadership and methods that encourage adoption of new systems and programs.
My passion is to provide cost-effective solutions that address your business needs. I personalize recommendations to your needs. The personal touch is how I ensure your success. Problems are not one-size fits all; and neither are solutions.

Testimonial: “As co-founder and CEO of an independent medical sales organization that has enjoyed continued year over year growth for over a decade, I had never previously enlisted the services of a business coach or external advisor. After a year of individual business coaching, and participation on a peer advisory board she selects and moderates, I was able to not only take stock of our business operations through quantitative tools and ongoing dialogue, but also handily navigate a series of pivotal, complex decisions that informed a new strategic direction for the next phase of our organization.”

I first conscripted Carol's services at a juncture in my business in which I was contemplating selling my share of the organization due to a combination of what I perceived to be insurmountable circumstances and fatigue. Over the course of the next 12 months, Carol was able to provide great insight and a number of resources which were instrumental in shaping my organization in a way that not only increased our profitability, but also enhanced my strategic acumen and allowed me to approach the business in a more sustainable context. Her continued guidance has been of great benefit to my organization, and I would highly recommend Carol as a business consultant.
