We build deeply rooted relationships of trust with leaders looking to increase their strategic advantage.

Our story

We are the lean and mean - a boutique management consultancy based in New York, built around smart and nimble principles that bring human insight to life.

Person blossomed after recognizing the limitations of large zoom meetings, rigid systems, and agencies trying to push tactical business through. Our clients wanted smaller, smarter teams, with the experts that have been there, and done that. Our ability to see across barriers and collaborate closely with decision makers lead to the kind of direct impact that clients are looking for.

With a core nucleus of trusted advisors surrounded by over 50 hand-picked experts based across the globe on our roster, our cross-industry teams have on average 15-20 years of expertise in the financial services, energy, and health sectors with specialties across research, strategic planning, product and operations.

Why Person?

As a boutique management consultancy, we’re hyper-focused on our client’s needs, building deep relationships fostered over time while providing the flexibility and objectivity required in today’s rapidly changing world.

Walking a mile in your shoes

We start with empathy-driven techniques to place ourselves firmly in the shoes of your customers, stakeholders, and clients. We then overlay the power of creative problem solving methods to establish shared understanding and through radical candor unravel impossible problems.

Let’s right-size it

We deliver real, tangible outcomes, with the right-size. And unlike the large consultancies, we build small, nimble teams of 2, 4 and 6 experts focused on actionable results from small incremental improvement to full business transformational using practices like agile and lean management.

Expertise please

Our teams are comprised of Senior, Director, and Executive talent – on average with 15-20 years of experience. We’ve done this before - former CIO, CTO. Specialists in research, technology, human-centered design, and bringing award-winning products to market.

Collaboration nation

We work in the open and celebrate co-creation and collaboration with our teams. Our participatory approach means we work side-by-side, not for, not under, but with each other to achieve business, colleague and customer success.

Float like a butterfly

The only viable strategy today is to adapt and evolve. We respond well to ambiguity and new environments. Our ability to adjust quickly and deliver well-formed, objective strategies helps organizations survive, and thrive across functions.
