Welcome to my consultancy hub - Evanson Consulting LLC. With over two decades of dynamic leadership experience across diverse industries, I've dedicated my career to driving constructive change and fostering results-driven environments. As a seasoned business improvement consultant, I specialize in offering tailored solutions to organizations seeking to enhance their operational efficiency and drive sustainable growth.

My journey has taken me from the bustling boardrooms of multinational corporations to the rugged terrains of mining sites and the intricate landscapes of petrochemicals and specialty chemicals. With a career that's unfolded in Canada, the United States, Australia, Norway, Denmark, the United Kingdom, Saudi Arabia, and Germany, I've had the privilege of embracing different cultures and perspectives while spearheading initiatives as an expatriate.

At the heart of my consultancy practice lies a commitment to people-focused leadership. I firmly believe in the power of collaboration, accountability, and effective communication to empower teams and organizations to reach their full potential. Whether it's through consultation services, one-on-one mentoring, coaching sessions, or specialized training programs, I work closely with clients to identify areas for improvement, implement targeted strategies, and drive tangible results.

As a certified black belt in lean six sigma process improvement and a member of the Australian Institute of Company Directors (AICD), I bring a wealth of expertise in operational excellence methodologies, project management, and business transformation. My approach is holistic, integrating best practices with real-world insights to deliver actionable solutions that align with each client's unique goals and challenges.

Whether you're looking to optimize productivity, streamline processes, or navigate complex organizational changes, I'm here to guide you every step of the way. Thank you for considering me as your trusted partner on your journey to business excellence.
