Our approach is to be a thoroughly practical firm of high ideals.

Our strategy is to employ those ideals into actual practice.

This is the Piedmont Standard that We strive for every day.

​

Proper Preparation Produces Peak Performance

• complete devotion to fulfilling each client's needs: begin with the end in mind to co-create a vision 

• begin now & stay ready: exceed the client's expectations during every touchpoint of the engagement 

• plan our work & work our plan: precise diagnosis converts issues into opportunities

​

Attack The Day With Relentless Effort & Relentless Focus

• first things first: attack the most challenging objective before all else 

• apply 1000% effort into achieving every objective, every day, at every moment

• focus on being proactive when facing challenges & respond with urgency

​

Aim Higher to Hit the Most High Targets

• set objectives 12x higher than required for success & perform 12x the activity required for results

• forward-focused planning: every decision produces options & delivers multiple benefits

• do each task completely: there is zero value in any project until it is finished

​

Be the Most Adaptable to Change & Transition

• live the question: perhaps there's a better way?

• constantly renew belief systems & approaches to meet current realities

• prioritize purification: true refinement seeks simplicity 

​

Live on the Firing Line of Life 

• prioritize prioritization: be strategic on what not to do — take bold risks while mindfully mitigating them 

• fail forward fast: success is a series of failures put to flight

• all agreements and solutions are mutually beneficial, mutually satisfying
