MEGO...My Eyes Glaze Over. You've experienced it — we all have. The moment when you're talking with a technology-savvy colleague, who breaks into geek talk, and you think, "I am not understanding a word he says!"

Developing strategy is nice, but executing tactics brings bottom-line results.
At Todd Herman Associates, we believe that "tactics trump strategy" — because tactics produce bottom-line results. Our goal is to "implement the big picture" by providing creative solutions that build stronger, more profitable, and more competitive companies.
Our work falls into different areas of a business — but always focuses on
- using technology and
- improving processes
- to help people perform better, and
- yield higher business ROI.
Our consultants use their technical and business experience in our major service areas of:
Business Systems — Screening, selecting, implementing, customizing, and extending systems affecting operations, finance, and other major business functions.
Business Process Improvement — Analyzing, streamlining, and automating common business processes.
Data Analysis & Business Intelligence — Extracting, transforming, integrating, analyzing, and reporting business information.
You can't learn from your strategy. It's just sitting there pretending it knows what it's talking about, while your tactics are out there getting battle-tested by the market.
