“Every company, no matter the size, should have access to tools that make business work better.  Knowing how to exceptionally plan and implement the most important goals of your company is about as critical as you can get in making your business succeed.”

Kelle Olwyler, Founder of Strategy Planning Partners

Who We Are

Strategy Planning Partners is a consulting and training firm that facilitates small companies and executives in the implementation of strategic plans and important initiatives. 

While many companies of 500 employees and up have strategic goal management and implementation systems in place, smaller companies often do not have the resources to train employees in-house on the most effective ways to plan and implement their company’s strategic goals.

Strategy Planning Partners fills that gap.

In 1999, Kelle Olwyler, President and Founder of Kel Bergan Consulting, an international management consulting company specializing in high performance technologies, noticed that smaller companies have little access to the training and tools that would make business work better for them.  She decided to do something about it.

In 2004, she began providing services to small businesses in the critical arena of strategic goal implementation, at friendly prices, and in 2008 Strategy Planning Partners was born.

Now, smaller businesses can access training and tools that will support them in making the best implementation decisions and actions with the most far-reaching impact.
