Mission
Lighthouse
is a group of experienced senior professionals with
the capability to
address complex multi-disciplinary issues. Our
consulting philosophy is
quite simple. We believe:
• Tangible results are the most important part of a project.
• Clients are best served when senior professional staff is actively
involved with client issues and work closely with client executives
and staff.
• Clients should not have to spend time and money educating the
consultant
• Subject matter, process methodology, and change management
expertise are all-important skills a consultant should bring to an
assignment.
