We drive important things forward.  Sometimes we bring experience and expertise you don’t currently have on your team. Sometimes you just need additional bandwidth.  Other times you might simply need a sounding board. 

We do that, all of that.

Align.  It’s What We Do.

Every entrepreneur, every company and every situation is different and for this reason, so too is every Align engagement.  Having said this, there really is only one approach; it all starts with understanding the need, really understanding it.  We ask good questions and we are good listeners.    

We ensure that your ambition aligns with your strategy, that your strategy aligns with your priorities, and that your priorities align with your people, capabilities, and actions.

We love to execute and we know what it takes to succeed.  We know that if you are partnering with us to help you achieve your objectives then we have to work with you in a way that works for you.  Our engagements are designed to deliver value while always respecting the current priorities and realities of your business. 

Our depth and breadth of experience in function and industry ensure that we are an efficient and effective partner that does not come with a steep learning curve. We integrate quickly and play well with others; we are embraced as a catalyst for success and not a threat.  We are open and honest, we are focused and flexible, and we are good teammates.    

We are as comfortable working with start-ups as we are with partnering global brands.  We can be project-based or take a seat at your leadership table.  We have been brought in as catalyst, consultant, coach, CEO, and every role in between.

Align.  It’s Who We Are. 

Jamie and Erin MacKay founded Align over 15 years ago, five years later Melanie Amos joined the team and together we have partnered to build a collective of experienced entrepreneurs, executives, and experts in strategy, operations, finance, brand, marketing, business development, and people and culture, having run companies, divisions, departments, programs, and projects.   

We have successfully partnered with an exciting and inspiring group of entrepreneurs and companies.  We have launched start-ups, raised financing, acquired and integrated companies, managed global campaigns, developed succession plans, and engineered exits.  We know about commitment, risk, and reward.  We love what we do!

 Align. It’s How We Do It.

Value.  The return always outweighs the investment.

Enjoyment.  Partner with decent and interesting people.

Growth.  Keep developing.  Never stop learning.

Reward.  Our contributions are meaningful and recognized.
