Consultants &
Consulting Firms

In today’s consulting landscape, firms are under ongoing pressure to deliver measurable financial results, reduce client risk, and scale solutions rapidly—without overextending resources or reinventing the wheel. At the same time, clients increasingly expect strategies that deliver real societal impact alongside business performance.

Tri-Sector Innovation (TSI) offers a practical, forward-looking methodology that helps consultants rise to the challenge. Unlike traditional frameworks that separate profit and purpose—often leaving significant value untapped—TSI embeds impact directly into the business model creating a powerful competitive advantage.

By strategically repurposing existing resources from the public, private, and social sectors, TSI accelerates innovation, reduces costs, and builds smarter, more resilient models that scale faster and endure longer.

TSI is gaining momentum with forward-thinking firms and visionary clients alike. For consultants looking to lead with innovation, it offers a clear path to differentiation, greater client value, and impact that truly endures.

Stronger models. Greater value. Lasting impact.
