Wayne Simmons, CEO, Growth Strategy Company Wayne Simmons and Keary Crawford are passionate about entrepreneurship, and helping small companies realize their growth goals. To that end, they started The Growth Strategy Company in 2010. Much to their surprise, large and middle-market companies soon began knocking on their door, looking to tap their expertise and bring the same kind of growth innovation typically reserved for smaller companies to their firms. The pair is no strangers to entrepreneurship, previously they started Icor Partners, which was named one of our Small Jewels in 2007. When they sold the company in 2010, it afforded them the opportunity to work where their true passion lay: helping companies realize sustainable growth. "The demand for business growth is relentless. We are focused on helping companies better measure, visualize analyze and act on the critical information related to business growth," says Crawford. Consulting One on One sat down with Simmons, who is CEO of the firm, about the myths of growth, the "outmoded" business consulting model, and how large companies can feel entrepreneurial and pursue growth just like smaller companies.
