“Giving priority to what matters is the path of risk and adventure, but I also believe that the institutions and culture that surround us are waiting for us to transform them into a fuller expression of our own desires”
-Peter Block
At Carpenter Smith Consulting, LLC, we provide business consultation that enhances the ability to create and sustain success by setting strategic direction, maximizing leadership effectiveness, managing change with the minimum of disruption, and nurturing the next generation of leaders. We focus on assessing and improving business processes from structure, roles, and goals; to group dynamics; interpersonal relationships and individual performance that are central to organizational success. As you have witnessed time and time again, when business processes are misunderstood, misaligned, undeveloped, or missing, leading for productivity and results becomes an exercise in frustration and futility.
In consultation with key leaders, stakeholders and implementers, we will facilitate the identification of target interventions, provide guidance and where appropriate expertise, and coach key performers in skill development and facilitation of results.
We bring expertise, wisdom and experience to seeing your organization with fresh eyes, exploring taboo organizational topics safely, and fostering the motivation for success. Because our consultants not inducted into your political system we will not ignore the data that others have come to believe you don’t want to know.
Our consultants:
• Give data back to your business at a rate it can absorb.
• Know that change is slow and habit is powerful.
• Help you move the right way in the right time.
• Build on what is already working rather than selling you on the next, new business fad.
• Have the expertise to make your business thrive.
We have more than 20 years experience working with businesses like yours. We understand the subtleties of Portland business culture. We are local experts who believe in the NW as much as you do. We’re committed to Portland’s economic health and to creating a business community without rivals.
To insure the best fit between our skills and your needs, we will meet with key leaders and stakeholder to assess your needs, develop a proposal for action, and identify a budget.
