The Kinney Group

In everything we do…

We believe the greatest potential can only be achieved when you:

1. Start with a clear and quantifiable GOAL
2. Develop a comprehensive STRATEGY to achieve the goal
3. Systematically EXECUTE that strategy

We believe the value of any strategy, how ever brilliant, how ever well-conceived, is a function of the effectiveness of its execution.

We believe that an inspired workforce working in unison towards a common goal is critical to the effective, efficient and therefore profitable execution of any business strategy.

We believe that, with a capable, engaged, inspired and aligned team, you can accomplish just about anything.

So we developed a management system that creates alignment, inspires engagement, manages accountability and provides a structured process for systematic execution of business strategies.

Our mission is to be the most trusted resource for maximizing sustainable profitability and business valuation for small businesses.

We accomplish our mission through our dedication to the continual development and refinement of the Critical Factors Management System as the most effective system for executing any business strategy and by working directly alongside our clients and their management teams to execute their strategies through the Critical Factors Management System.

We are driven by our core values of:

• Accountability
• Excellence
• Integrity
• Leadership
