New Oaks identified critical workstreams and built scalable, repeatable steps that we use to manage work and complete key tasks. Without your involvement in planning and process definition and Gabrielle’s “on the floor” leadership and continuous improvement focus we would not have been successful throughout the recent peak shipping season. Without exaggeration, you and the team built the systems that we use today to manage work and ensure that key tasks are managed and completed on a daily, weekly, and even monthly cadence. Your ability to teach, measure, and define process was felt across the facility and your focus on always pushing beyond the status quo remains with the team today. Despite the heavy volumes of the past two months, they have continued to surface new ideas and solutions, both big and small, to drive efficiency and quality.

Through his collaborative and thoughtful style, Billy, our New Oaks consultant, shared his extensive experience and skills to build capabilities in our growing project management team. New Oaks worked alongside us as hands-on partners and team members. The New Oaks team created and conducted a series of twelve CPG-focused project management training modules, establishing base skills and common practices across our team. I have received consistent feedback from my team members that their skills have been improved and their contributions as project managers have been enhanced as a direct result of New Oaks’ training and coaching. New Oaks has been a wonderful partner and delivered tremendous value to our organization.

As Opte was a new brand, new technology and new (global) supply chain, Billy’s role was highly complex and required integration of teams, partners and relationships across the world. Billy established strong capabilities and systems to keep the complexity under control and provided reliable and clear updates on progress to leadership.

I’ve had the great pleasure to work with New Oaks Consulting on multiple cross-border new product introductions. From programs in the US, Spain, Hong Kong and China, New Oaks brought strategic, program management and supply chain expertise to often complex programs. They were well prepared, detailed and focused on helping both internal and external teams execute against program objectives. New Oaks brings tremendous value to both small and large companies.

I thoroughly enjoyed working with Billy, our New Oaks consultant. His mentoring and valuable experience in Project Management skills had a huge positive impact in our business. New Oaks consistently went above and beyond to ensure that our team met its targets. I have no hesitation recommending them.

Billy, our New Oaks consultant, has tremendous program and project management skills. He has led multiple projects that were large in scope and complexity to successful on-time completion. New Oaks has wonderful interpersonal skills that allow the teams they work with to flourish, as they engage and involve everyone as true partners and owners in the work. New Oaks is also great at teaching in the area of project and program management, helping to develop others to lead their own projects.

New Oaks was quickly able to grasp the heart behind our company, help us to see clearly who we are, what our real goals are, what was keeping us from those goals and helped us to develop processes that allow us to see the path through the weeds.

I have enjoyed the last several years getting to know Daryl - he has that rare ability to develop the macro and never miss a detail in the micro. Well beyond that he is pure in heart, doing the right thing for the right reasons. Very glad to count him as a friend.

Daryl from New Oaks is an excellent Innovation Consultant! His expertise in capability and system development has had a profound impact on Initiative Success across the company.

Daryl, our New Oaks consultant, is an expert project manager in the area of new products/innovation and trains, coaches and mentors those in this area of expertise. New Oaks demonstrates both systemic thinking and the ability to manage details. They continue to look for opportunities to make improvements to systems and people. When New Oaks says they’re going to do something, not only will it be done, but will be of top quality.
