Consulting

About Thrive and Advance, LLC

I founded Thrive and Advance to help established companies pivot to the future and startups create it.  I also work with the venture capital, private equity, and consulting firms helping these companies realize their dreams.

Combining 33 years of Fortune 500 sales, marketing, strategy, and venture capital experience with my doctoral research on disruptive innovation, I help supply chain companies navigate the unprecedented structural change in the industry.

I only consult directly with companies on projects that are CEO-endorsed and startups whose offerings fundamentally improve the human condition.  Life is too short.  My engagements are flexible:

  • Short term consulting (hourly/daily rate)
  • Project-based consulting
  • Long term consulting on retainer
  • Equity + retainer

Areas of expertise

  • Small parcel industry and strategy
  • Supply chain investments and M&A
  • Disruptive industry trends
    • On-demand delivery
    • New fulfillment; on-demand, ship-from-store, and urban dark stores
    • Sharing economy and digital marketplaces
    • People, automation, and robotics
    • Next-gen transportation:  Connected, autonomous, and electric
    • The new middle-mile battlefield
    • Industry 4.0:  Additive Manufacturing, Blockchain, and IoT
  • Organizational Velocity – understanding and overcoming your barriers to growth in the digital economy
