Precision

At JR&A, we like to think of ourselves as the antidote to meandering meetings; repetition without results; and thick Powerpoint decks which lack power and miss the point!

In brief, we help leaders who know something is broken in their People, Processes and/or Systems--but they can't pinpoint the problem. We define, frame and root out the problem. Then we help leaders to fix it...quickly and precisely.

We work with small to medium sized companies across four industries, bringing our wealth of hands-on leadership experience to bear on each assignment:

Financial Services
Data Science and Technology (High Growth)
Healthcare (Administration and Delivery)
