The Origin Story
Grey Consulting was born in 2020 when Michael Grey realized that small and medium businesses were being underserved by the consulting industry. After years of working with Fortune 500 companies, he witnessed firsthand how powerful strategic frameworks could transform organizations—but these insights were largely inaccessible to smaller businesses due to cost and complexity.
