An independent advisory firm built on active board governance, elite playing credentials, and 20 years of enterprise business development — at a level no generalist consultant can replicate.
The only independent advisory firm in the private golf industry with active board governance experience, elite playing credentials, and 20 years of enterprise business development — at a level no generalist consultant can replicate.
Three structural advantages that compound. Most consultants know the industry. Kevin White has governed it, played it, and run national-caliber events inside it.
A public body of work published every week. Prospective clients engage knowing exactly how Kevin thinks before the first call. There is no pitch — only demonstrated expertise.
Board member protecting member interests from acquisition approaches. Intelligence resource helping acquirers evaluate club assets. That dual perspective makes the analysis sharper for everyone.
20 years of enterprise BD at the highest levels and deep relationships across the private club world. Engagements move faster — the right people are already a call away.
