 Strategic Facilitation
by Gina Airey, MBA
With over twenty years as an internal and external consultant, and almost a decade with her own firm, Gina Airey, MBA, leads the firm as a strategic planner and leadership consultant.
Her approach to consulting is influenced by years of supporting leaders as they navigated periods of growth. Her deep experience includes Accenture/Andersen Consulting’s Organization and Human Performance Practice, a group that brought "change management" to the global consulting marketplace during her six year tenure. While there, she excelled as a manager and successfully served clients – ranging from Fortune 50 to Silicon Valley dotcom start-up.
In this chapter of her career with Accenture she expanded her understanding of the interplay of strategy, people, process and technology. And she discovered her passion for facilitation and its power to catalyze change.
Gina refined her skills in strategic planning and competitive market assessment as Vice President of Consulting with McMorrowSavarese, which serves managing partners of the AmLaw 100 (the legal industry's revenue ranking). She developed new consulting services, advised law firm leadership on their growth strategies and co-wrote articles about the complexities of leading change in law firms.
Gina’s commitment to working with visionary leaders across sectors, industries and disciplines is rooted in her education in liberal arts, public affairs and strategic management. She graduated Magna Cum Laude from Occidental College where she received her A.B. with departmental honors in psychology and membership in the Phi Beta Kappa society.
She was chosen among national candidates to participate in “Princeton’s Review’s” top public affairs graduate-level training, a year-long public affairs fellowship with Coro Southern California. She also holds an MBA with a concentration in strategic management from the Peter F. Drucker and Masatoshi Ito Graduate School of Management at Claremont Graduate University. Upon graduation, the faculty honored her as Outstanding MBA Student of the Year, an award presented to her by Drucker himself, the “Father of Management”.
The Right Team Each Time
Gina leads the firm and is fully involved in each engagement. On a project-by-project basis, she complements her skills with various senior colleagues, chosen intentionally to deliver each client the right expertise and attention for the results they’ve targeted.

I've long since forgotten that Gina is a consultant - she gives her heart and soul, her intellect and creativity as if she were one of our impassioned City leaders. With Gina's strategic facilitation we've transformed an abstract sense of our future into a cleverly articulated long-term plan.
