Revenue model

1. Management Consulting Services: Project-based consulting engagements providing strategic management consulting, operational improvement, and business transformation services.

2. Training and Workshops: Virtual training and workshop services including Lean Simulation Workshops, Strategic Planning & Goal Setting Workshop, Values & Operating Principles Workshop, Leadership Bootcamp, and Excel Workshops & Training.
3. Purpose Beyond Profit (Pro Bono): In-kind consulting services donated to non-profit organizations. A minimum of 25% of non-billable hours are donated annually to improving charities and not-for-profit organizations. This is not a revenue stream but a CSR initiative.
