My Focus is Alignment

We are passionate about helping leaders be effective, efficient, and smart.

“The Mission statement is the foundation followed by the Vision of the organization, which along with corporate Values demonstrates Strategy and then, finally Tactics.” Ed Kelley 

I see patterns and systems, so when out of alignment, the flow stops, so I am called in, and we get started peeling back layer after layer until we discover the solutions for success.

Helping people with problems/ design solutions to people’s problems.

Testimonials

"I worked for Ed for 7 years at a large (2,000 attendees), Christ-centered, missions-focused church. Ed was Executive Pastor and I served as Operations Director. I observed Ed in many capacities and thoroughly enjoyed working with, and for him. I know Ed as a man of integrity who possesses a rare combination of secular business acumen and broad church leadership experience. He had 6-10 direct reports and he provided excellent managerial guidance for each of us. I learned things from Ed that improved the effectiveness of my own managerial duties. Ed is the kind of person you want to be around. He has a great sense of humor and is very easy to work with. Whatever issues the church faced in our time together, Ed provided key leadership in organizing the necessary resources and leading the teams charged with addressing them. Ed’s knowledge of the Bible is extensive, a fact clearly displayed many times as he led our entire church staff of over 30 people in studies of the Word and church history. He is an excellent communicator and teacher. Ed is also very well informed of cultural trends and current events and is gifted in assessing issues in terms of Biblical principles. I highly recommend Ed as an excellent management consultant, both for secular and faith-based organizations."
