Our Mission

Historically, a Millpond was a reservoir of potential energy - in the form of stored water - that was converted to kinetic energy (running water), necessary to operate a Mill.

Today, Millpond Partners works with public and private companies of all sizes to ensure that the potential energy needed to run a business in today's complex environment - growth strategies, business plans, sales & operations planning, etc. - are always in place and ready to be converted from potential to actual outcomes.

And while you may be focused on keeping the wheel spinning, we promise that the work we do will always seamlessly bridge between strategy (potential energy) and execution (kinetic energy).

our approach

We are a consulting and 'Fractional Leadership' firm that believes in creating growth opportunities for our clients, period. We understand that growth requires both creativity and discipline, and the ability to balance sustained commitment over the long-term, while still focusing on short-term performance.

Creating business potential (strategies) without the mechanism to convert them into actionable goals & objectives does not get the job done. Once the potential is created, we work closely with our clients to drive results, putting in place the people and processes necessary for success.

Once your business 'flywheel' is spinning, we will continue to work with you to keep it spinning. We can create an operational cadence to track progress on both growth and execution initiatives, and we can provide interim leadership during ramp-up and business transitions.
