I specialize in value optimization through strategic/tactical best practice process improvements in finance/accounting, operations, and sales & marketing. My abilities are founded upon my passion for data-driven management, lean start-up methodology and continuous improvement techniques combined with extensive C-level experience. I’ve worked with firms ranging from start-ups to stable companies with 1,500+ employees. Companies have employed me or engaged my Management Consultant services as CFO, COO, EVP Finance, Board Advisor, Sales & Marketing executive and Investment Banker. I’ve managed hyper-growth and have also been intricately involved in successful turnarounds and assisting firms undergoing reorganization. I’ve built sales funnels, optimized branding, turned around telemarketing operations, managed hundreds of people, run sizable accounting departments, overseen the implementation and maintenance of state of the art IT systems, retooled mortgage servicing operations, structured acquisitions and divestitures, raised $1b in debt and equity capital, served on executive committees, advised stakeholders, thwarted hostile takeovers, and a host of other functions in just about every area of corporate operations.My decades of cross-functional competence afford me a deep intuition and skill set for problem solving, organization and communication. Those skills and intuition, when combined with my passion for data-driven management, create a unique blend of traits that sets me apart from my peers and allows me to optimize value at the highest levels.I am entrepreneurial-focused and welcome new endeavors depending on your company’s needs and my cultural fit. I am a LinkedIn Open Networker (LION) and would be honored to connect with you if I can be of assistance. Please contact me at mike@gregoryemail.com.
