I had an incredible experience working with Brian Gladden, and am grateful to have been connected with his consulting services through the Roseville Chamber of Commerce. Through only a few sessions, Brian walked through several complex business and entrepreneurial topics, broke them down, adapted them to my specific situation, and presented them in an easily digestible way. He also recommended resources and workshops I could use as helpful guides throughout my journey as a business owner and founder. Brian offers immense value to businesses, entrepreneurs, and startups. I have recommended him to many people I’ve met through networking and will continue to do so! Everyone could benefit from his wisdom, experience, and vast knowledge.

The agency I work for hired Si2 to help with strategic planning after an organizational restructuring, and to improve our key informant interview process toward the development of a new resource. Brian Gladden took the time to get to know our team and our work, and to understand the culture. He provided very practical guidance and tools related to objectives & key results, understanding customer needs, and value propositions. I found him to be very personable, able to read the room well, and to strike a good balance between theory and practice.

Brian was instrumental in helping us pivot our children’s media brand. He helped refresh the business model, offered smart strategic planning, challenged our assumptions, and made great recommendations. And....Brian's introductions were incredibly valuable and well-aligned. We’re now on the verge of a turnaround, and much of that momentum is thanks to Brian’s support. Highly recommended!

We’ve been running a corporate program at Klüber Lubrication to foster innovation and intrapreneurship across the organization. As part of this journey, we organized a workshop in the US focused on bringing our business and sales colleagues closer to the “customer island.” Brian played a crucial role in guiding the team through the Value Proposition Canvas, helping us identify jobs to be done and connect deeply with the most relevant customer pains. His support was instrumental in enabling us to define the right actions for impact. It was a truly inspiring day that strengthened our capabilities to explore new opportunities and grow our business further.

I highly recommend Brian for any organization seeking to strengthen strategic alignment and operational effectiveness. He provided expert coaching to our office, leading the implementation of Objectives and Key Results, project management standards, and internal coaching practices that improved how we set goals, track progress, and collaborate across teams. His work directly supported building sustainable systems for accountability and equity-focused outcomes that continue to deliver value beyond his engagement with our department.
