“Tony has worked with two different companies that I have run. Specifically, at my first company Tony ran our strategic planning process and provided the tools and oversight to implement a Balanced Scorecard methodology.

During our bi-annual strategic planning process Tony built the tools, designed & facilitated the meetings and crafted the output. These meetings ranged in both size and officer levels. At one event, we had upwards of 50+ managers and officers in contrast to other events with 6-8 executives.

At each of these events, Tony personally sought out each and every layer of management and officers in the company to spend some time with them...building relationships. His efforts provided an added element of trust throughout the company thereby allowing his team to connect with our staff in order to understand the tough issues. At my second company, Tony and his team also helped us with strategic planning. Post the strategy plan rollout, his team was critical in working with us side-by-side on regionalizing from 20+ local offices to 5 regional more efficient offices.

We not only executed with minimal flaws, but were able to create and document new processes and procedures that resulted in higher levels of efficiency beyond anything the company had experienced. Tony and his team were very skilled at the traditional consulting aspects of helping a company to build strategy (Vision, Mission, Values coupled with strategic executables). 

I would highly recommend Tony and his team to any firm...large or small that needs help in building strategy or improving efficiency."

“Tony Pallante is one of the most brilliant strategists I've ever known. He was an instrumental part of the growth and success that we had at Nation Point.

He has the intelligence, experience and discipline to take the very difficult task of creating future business strategy for an emerging organization and facilitating a group of executives to put tangible and achievable goals together on a roadmap to follow to achieve the desired success.

He is a wealth of knowledge in just about every aspect of both the mortgage and financial industries, and always made himself available to impart his knowledge and advice. He garners the respect of everyone he comes in contact with.”
