What Our Clients Say
Like most entrepreneurial endeavors, our business was born from a good idea and a vision to solve a problem that would provide a great resource for our community. While trying to develop the business, market ourselves, manage our team, sales, financials, etc., we became overwhelmed. Brigitte took the time to learn about our business, our goals, and our personal strengths. She helped reshape our business model and provided us with the structure we needed to maintain success. It was a pleasure to work with her and I will forever appreciate her leadership and guidance.

case studies
I have worked with Brigitte for years and she continuously amazes me with her unique perspective and thoughtful consideration of every challenge that she faces. Watching her run a strategy meeting is often like seeing a mad scientist pulling things from people's brains, and you wonder where she is driving the conversation. Then, in the end, she ties up everything into a pretty package that makes perfect sense to everyone in the room. Brigitte's intelligence and humor is infectious and that makes you feel smarter when you talk to her. I love working with her and would suggest her for any type of business strategy project!
