Company Profile

Vision  l  How We Got Started  l  Management
 

Brio – an Italian word that means “enthusiastic vigor.”

And, that is what we bring to your company – a lively, emphatic, eager and energetic quality that has the capacity to exert influence and change. Using “Brio,” we work with you and your employees to bring out and bring about positive change in your company.

Our Vision

Our vision is to operate an honest and ethical business management consulting business with integrity, energy and, of course, brio. In doing so, we will help you better position yourself and your company for the future through improved cash flow management, increased profitability, more efficient and effective operations and more enjoyment and fun in your work and life.

Our Mission

Our mission in providing business owners with ethical and practical consulting services is to bring out your best, and often subconscious, ideas, impart knowledge and provide the energy required to transform your business into what you desire it to be. We provide you with the keys to unlock hidden profit and value in your company; and, we help you and your team become more productive and engaged in your business.

Our Operating Principles

We use solid business tools and decades of leadership and management experience to help you become more successful. We don’t believe in fads and gimmicks; and we don’t believe that equipment and software are quick fix solutions to make your business run better. We value you and your money. As such, we will not take the approach of charging you for billable hours until you run out of money.

Our approach is to work with you in the following manner:

  • We mutually explore all the issues impacting your company to develop a shared solution that meets your needs.
  • We listen to you and look for facts.
  • We don’t draw quick conclusions or readily accept your version of the “problem.”
  • We require that you participate in the process.
  • We won’t tell you what you want to hear, but rather, what you need to hear.
  • Our focus is on helping you discover what you need to learn.
  • We ask many questions. Quite often, these questions are difficult ones, ones others are hesitant or afraid to ask.
  • We test assumptions and deliver recommendations and solutions that make sense for you, not us.

While some issues are obvious, many others are more obscure and often have an emotional impact. Problems rarely happen overnight, and yes, even you might be wrong about what’s not working right in your company. We pride ourselves in having the integrity to guide you in the direction that best meets your needs, whether it is with our firm or another that offers services or products that we do not provide. We have affiliate partnerships that provide many of these additional services and products.

We are confident that the Brio Consulting Partners process will energize you.


How We Got Started
 

Both Managing Partners at Brio started their careers as healthcare clinicians and educators. They operated their own small businesses and shared the enjoyment of learning and teaching. They also shared an interest in the business world and group dynamics, which led them both to successful high-level management positions in large corporations.

During their nearly 50 years of combined experience, the Managing Partners observed two consistent themes in business.

  • Big corporations had a lot of business knowledge and information, but lacked the organizational tenacity, persistency and consistency to implement ideas or truly meet their customers’ needs.
  • Smaller companies were fundamentally superior at execution and customer responsiveness, but they often lacked key business knowledge and information.
  • Both Partners concurred that if small to mid-sized businesses could implement the best business practices available to larger corporations, while retaining all their inherent competitive advantages, they could actually achieve and create greater value and profitability for their business. Ciao Brio!

    Our Core Values

    We believe in and integrate the following core values into our business at Brio Consulting Partners: faith, honesty, integrity, service, knowledge sharing, openness, tenacity, persistency, hard work, and, of course, brio. We are committed to these core values with our families, communities, clients and business partners. These core values are our driving force.
