Listen for the workaround.
The workaround often reveals more than the official process. It shows where the system has stopped serving the people using it.

About Rob Lee
Built for the space between strategy and execution.
Rob is an operator, strategist, and product builder who can move from leadership questions and operating models to the details of implementation and deployment.
The through-line
Find the shortest responsible path.
Across his career—and in everyday life—Rob has returned to the same question: how can this be done with less friction? Fewer steps. Fewer clicks. Fewer handoffs. Less time spent working around the work.
Whether he is cooking, training, developing a product, shaping strategy, or helping someone redesign a workflow, that instinct is always present. It is less a technique than a persistent way of seeing systems.
Efficiency does not mean rushing or cutting out what protects quality, people, or sound judgment. It means removing what does not contribute, making the right action easier, and designing a clearer path from intention to outcome.
Kimberley Consulting Group was created to apply that instinct where operations, people, and technology meet—bringing strategic judgment and hands-on execution into the same engagement.
Operating principles
How Rob approaches the work.
Stay close to the work.
Strategy becomes credible when it reflects real constraints, real handoffs, and the experience of staff and customers.
Remove the unnecessary.
Question every step, click, handoff, and delay. Keep what protects the outcome; remove what makes good work harder than it needs to be.
Own the last mile.
A roadmap is not an outcome. Implementation, adoption, documentation, and handoff are part of the work.
Selected experience
A broad operating lens, applied with focus.
The digital focus is strengthened by experience inside mission-driven organizations, real operating environments, and graduate sustainability programs.

Haven
Strategic consulting experience with a community food-bank organization, bringing mission, operating constraints, and stakeholder needs into the same decision process.
Mission Thrift
Invited speaking experience with a national mission-driven retail organization.
York University & University of Toronto
Presented to master's-level sustainability programs, bringing strategy, operations, sustainability, and implementation into the same conversation.
Retail, service, logistics, and technology

Why this model
Senior thinking without distance from delivery.
Organizations are often forced to choose between a strategist who leaves a roadmap, an operator focused only on today's process, and a technologist who starts with the tool. Kimberley Consulting Group connects those perspectives. Rob can help leadership frame the decision, work with staff to design the operating model, coordinate partners, and stay accountable through launch.
