Founded by Erich Phillips, a retired U.S. Army Special Forces Warrant Officer with over 22 years of global operational experience, our consulting firm brings military-grade strategy, clarity, and leadership into the boardroom. From leading elite teams in high-risk environments to advising U.S. and partner-nation forces on crisis response and mission execution, Erich’s career was built on performance under pressure and principled decision-making.
Now, that same mission-first mindset drives our work with businesses, institutions, and teams. Whether it's risk management, executive mentoring, organizational culture, or crisis planning, we deliver insights forged on the battlefield and refined for the business world.
Our commitment is simple: to empower your organization with the tools, mindset, and strategies to lead with confidence and operate with excellence.
