About

Some call us consultants.
But we go by many names.
Facilitators, sparring partners, catalysts.
Sometimes, even Alchemists.

Because we’ve found a way to
Turn complexity into clarity
Equip leaders with the tools, insight, and momentum they need,
To turn ideas into action.

While vision may be the spark of one,
We believe lasting impact is rarely realized alone.

So don’t think you need to work harder. Or longer.
You need a Sidekick

Sidekick has an innate ability to connect with teams, drawing out exactly what they need and meet project deliverables. I’ve worked with various members of Sidekick over the years and found each one to be a specialist in their areas, each bringing their own strengths and always providing a different perspective on how we can create efficiencies, challenge current processes, and never hesitating to explore new ways of thinking.

No matter what obstacles you’re trying to solve, Sidekick will engage, connect, and deliver."
