I’m the founder of a consulting firm called SmallDotBig. Some people have asked me where the name came from. So, here’s the backstory.
If you play pool in the US, you’re used to solids and stripes. But if someone from Australia or New Zealand joins your game, they’ll probably suggest otherwise…small dots and big dots. That’s what happened to me. It took me a second, but I quickly realized how both ways made complete sense. It’s all in what you bring to the table (pun intended).
The name of my firm, SmallDotBig, alludes to the value that different perspectives can add to a business. Having teams with a diversity of thought is an imperative for leaders. The journey of taking a business to the next level – from small to big – is a marathon, not a sprint.
Our mission is to work with mid-size businesses and entrepreneurs to achieve their vision by providing growth consulting services to increase the pace of their success.
If you’re wondering about how to take your company to the next level and need help framing solutions, get in touch and let’s create a plan.
