Nothing is really work unless you would rather be doing something else.

Hi, I'm George, a retired management consultant and business capability leader turned author-creator of Prosultant®, a virtual management advisory network.
My past roles include:
●
Sr. Advisor, The ROIG Group
●
Capability Leader, Accenture
●
Director, Best Buy
●
Partner, Ernst & Young
After graduating from the University of Missouri at Columbia with an accounting degree, my early career included system analyst roles at:
●
McDonnell-Douglas (now Boeing)
●
Ralston Purina (now Nestlé)
Our virtual management advisory network includes the following digital assets:
●
Inperva™: Create a culture of leadership and operational excellence.
●

●
Consultant-in-a-Box®: Guide non-technical business professionals on project fundamentals using our Master Checklist.

Prosultant® is an aggregation of thinking, organizing, behaving, and acting disciplines based on my experiences and lessons learned from:
●
600+ projects that encompassed strategy, process, organization, and technology outcomes across 16+ industries.
●
Roles as capability leader at Fortune 100 organizations and management consultant to 30+ Global 500, 10+ government, and 60+ middle-market, emerging, and private organizations.
Most of those 600+ assignments delivered successful outcomes. A handful were not so successful.
Failure is part of learning and progressing.
“You can't live a successful life without doing some difficult things that go wrong. That's just the nature of the game, and you wouldn't be sufficiently courageous if you tried to avoid every single reverse.”
