Redwood Advisors has served numerous high growth, high impact organizations, including:
I’ve had the privilege of partnering with John and Redwood Advisors on some of our most important strategy projects at Atlassian. What impressed me the most is how quickly he came up to speed on our industry and our growth opportunities. The quality of work was absolutely fantastic, and I appreciated the rigor and creativity John brought to the work. I look forward to working together on future projects.
John and his team facilitated a senior leadership retreat for us and did an excellent job. His preparation and organization was very thorough and he took his time to learn the team and the key issues. The output from the meeting refreshed our strategy, created better leadership alignment, and created focus on key operating objectives. This was a very productive meeting thanks to John and Redwood Advisors.
John and his team did an exceptional job leading our management team through a two day Strategy Workshop in early November. John is a great facilitator/listener and has an extraordinary knowledge base on how to scale businesses. Overall it was an excellent workshop. Our team left with new core values and an executable and measurable three year growth strategy. I would highly recommend John and his team. You won’t be disappointed.
I had the pleasure of hiring John to consult with me as I was building out the Operations Strategy team at Lyft. John helped develop a framework for managing a portfolio of strategic initiatives and advised on how best to communicate these initiatives across a growing organization. I was blown away by how quickly John understood Lyft's business. Within our first meeting he was making valuable recommendations that we ended up implementing. John is also extremely detail oriented and you know that he will deliver on time. I would welcome the opportunity to work with John again (and hope to soon!).
John has a lot of experience to draw from both in terms of what will be impactful for an organization and how to adapt practices to fit a specific organization. This ends up saving a lot of time that might otherwise be spent reinventing the wheel and having to learn by trial and error. Instead you can go directly to a solution that’s effective with relatively low overhead within the organization. John's work is high leverage and high impact. Would recommend to any organization at any size.
I don't think we've ever been in a better position as a company in the 10 years or 12 years or whatever period of time this thing's been public...I think it'll be important for investors to really understand just how granular this is, how specific this is, how much time we spent with the help of [the Redwood team] working on this that we feel like we know what the hell we're doing.
I had the pleasure of working with John on my company's strategic plan. We trusted John and his team with one of the more important initiatives for the company, and it was truly transformative. John's knowledge and expertise in this space was amazing and he is truly a pleasure to work with. John's dedication to the project was as much as his personal investment in our success.... tremendous I could not ask for anything more. He even followed up with us when he was done at no expense to the company. John and his team are true professionals.
