Groundswell

Who We Are: GroundSwell is the destination for owner-managers transitioning their organization from an entrepreneurial business to a professionally managed, entrepreneurial company. We provide the people and tools to successfully stabilize, grow or exit your business. Who We’re Not: We’re not consultants who tell you what to do but don't help you do it. We’re not managers who pretend to get stuff done. We’re not investors who write a check and tell you what you should do. Our Customers: Our customers are businesses with $3 to $30 million in annual revenue. Over forty years of academic research indicates that businesses of this size must transition from an entrepreneurial business to a professionally managed, entrepreneurial company. Our Difference: We create peace of mind for owner-managers. We’ve made the often complex and chaotic transition from an entrepreneurial business to a professionally managed, entrepreneurial company highly rigorous, flexible, repeatable and programmable. We provide predictive diagnostics, business ownership training, hands-on execution through long-term partnerships, holistic enterprise management software, and capital – all in one place. Diagnostics: GroundSwell provides exclusive predictive online surveys that diagnose the key organizational and management development gaps. Training: Our Business Ownership School bridges the gap between an individual’s industry, product or functional knowledge and the critical skills required to manage a larger more complex organization. Support: We provide hands-on support and execution that is aligned with your goals through long-term partnerships. Capital: We invest in companies that have a demonstrated and ongoing commitment to organizational and managerial development.
