We teach, train, and coach organizations how to improve, innovate, and grow faster. We help organizations make good choices supported with the right metrics while balancing the work in and on the organization. The result is sustainable improvement. As Organizational Designers we help our clients create clarity of purpose to identify the areas most in need of improvement. Then, we enable our clients to develop the confidence and capabilities to execute improvements that obtain results that matter. We do this by partnering with our clients to transfer knowledge, build capabilities, and engage people so that future changes will be led by their employees. We don’t just help our clients to solve their problems; we enable them to solve problems on their own. We won’t leave you with a PowerPoint presentation, we leave you with results and a methodology that will continue to deliver those results far into the future.

Why “7th Wave”? To seafarers, it’s widely held that the 7th wave is the largest in the set. An experienced and well-trained eye knows how to watch for, prepare and catch the 7th wave for the greatest ride possible into shore. Many entrepreneurs struggle alone in the thrashing ocean unaware of this elusive wave. We started 7th Wave Capital because we know first hand that being an entrepreneur is extremely lonely and perilous. Even if you are an experienced entrepreneur, surrounded by a solid team, it’s hard to share your vulnerabilities and find the right path forward. We have amassed some of the Maritime’s most successful, awarded and respected entrepreneurs to join 7th Wave to help guide other select, Maritime based, growth-oriented business owners. The world is changing rapidly, offering new opportunities and threats to Maritime based businesses. Our advisors all have one thing in common (besides an uncommon track record), that they all want to help grow others’ businesses in this region. Our model of taking a minority equity stake allows the entrepreneur to maintain control of their business but gain access to invaluable advice, counsel and contacts that will navigate them to clarity, new heights and profitability.
