See differently. Solve better. Lead smarter.
Shape your worldA decade of global management consulting has taught us that the few who make it to the C-Suite do so through their teams.
A decade of global management consulting has taught us that the few who make it to the top of their fields do so by:
- Making an impact through their teams, and;
- Demonstrating that they can bring their people with them.
An investment in growing your team is an investment in your success. It could be the 1% that gets you over the top.
Let’s grow together
Simple, repeatable, & built on established techniques.
- Tested using a custom AI-driven agent-based simulation.

Turn insights into results.
We have packaged the insights, tools and techniques your teams will need to learn to see business challenges more clearly and with less bias, to solve those challenges in a structured manner, and to form tightly bonded units focused on driving practical outcomes.
Help your team grow
Help your team see more clearly.
Teams learn to unpack complex challenges and build a sophisticated awareness of thinking habits and perceptual biases that may be holding them back from achieving outstanding results.
Help your team grow
A self-managed system.
Our core program, the FirstGrow Method, is designed for teams to manage independently and includes all the tools and techniques required to get started today. Help is available (including consulting services) should you need it.
Help your team growThe FirstGrow Method
The FirstGrow Method is a step-by-step system for solving complex business challenges that your teams can adopt and run. It integrates structured problem-solving methods, insights from cognitive psychology, and high-performance team design into a simple, repeatable and scalable program.
Each focus area of the FirstGrow Method – The Challenge, Perception, and Teaming – are based on established techniques, deconstructed and re-combined as part of a holistic system.
We commissioned an AI-driven agent-based simulation to test the efficacy of the logic of the FirstGrow Method. After thousands of iterations, the results showed that simulated teams following our method were 50% more likely to solve a complex problem on their second attempt in contrast to control teams that had six attempts at the same problem while using a less-sophisticated problem-solving approach.
Plus - we offer a 30-day Money-Back Guarantee to give you added peace of mind.
Additional Services
We offer a range of personalized services where we will help you to unpack, re-imagine, and solve for complex business challenges in line with our FirstGrow Method. These include:

As Founder and CEO of Green Bean Consulting Group, I work with leaders to strengthen how their teams approach complex operational challenges.
Our focus is building advanced problem-solving capability within operational environments, particularly when familiar approaches no longer produce reliable results.
Whether a firm is growing but experiencing margin compression, modernizing legacy processes, navigating cross-functional complexity, or exploring new products and services, we help teams step outside habitual patterns of thinking. Drawing on management science and cognitive psychology, our methods enable leaders to reconstruct complex challenges, surface assumptions, test alternative models, and move forward with clarity before committing to structural change or major investment.
Over the past 30 years, I’ve worked across film and entertainment, financial services, and a decade of global management consulting. I’ve seen that sustained performance follows when teams are equipped with the tools to unpack complex problems and make better use of their existing experience once the problem has been properly framed. We help leaders build that capability inside their own organizations.
If you’d like to explore how this approach could support your team, I’d welcome the conversation.
