Welcome

MacNeil Consulting offers management assistance to leadership teams in the planning, management and implementation of initiatives that are critical to organization success.  Most consulting takes on the shape of a project of one kind or another. Often the success of management teams is limited by how much the senior management team can take on. Why not leverage your management team and accomplish more?

We specifically work with executives and management teams to leverage their capabilities, facilitate group processes and professionally manage change initiatives thereby reducing risk and accelerating results.

We separate our consulting into Executive Consulting and Management Consulting depending on whether we are working with/for the most senior management team or a layer or three lower in the organization.
