Don't Look Down

A live conversation on growing a firm, without fumbling your margins - or mental health.

Scaling a consulting firm has never felt scarier. But in a market crowded with laid-off consultants and AI-powered competitors, too many firms are choosing the riskiest move of all - stagnation.

Kyle James

Groundline GM Kyle James has felt the fear of growth, and scaled an engineering firm from 7 to 90 anyway.

Mark Orttung 02

Projectworks CEO Mark Orttung reckons the only thing that kills a consulting firm faster than growth is staying still.

Join Mark and Kyle for a conversation on: 

  • 4 growth killers - and how to get ahead of them. Talent bottlenecks, decision gridlocks, culture resets and margin slip
  • Shortcuts for scaling delivery - and failing fast. Testing new offerings, scaling systems fast, and building a leadership team that doesn’t need babysitting
  • Tools for scaling yourself - without burning out or freezing up. How to make decisions fast, delegate without chaos, and own the unpopular pivots.
