Welcome to the Cleveland Leadership Group

about the mission

Cleveland Leadership Group ("CLG") is all about business strategy and how such strategies are effectively implemented. Chief Executive Officer Peter Cleveland works with senior executives to paint a picture of what their business could look like in 3 to 5 years.

The picture becomes a ‘success statement’ defining the future state of the business in terms of new revenue levels, target markets, products and services, desired gross margins, desired expertise and necessary changes to governance.

From the success statement business strategies are designed and developed to ensure the defined future state is realized. Such strategies give way to specific action plans that, when completed, lead to effective strategy realization.

CLG is Different

about the mission

CLG offers practical and simple strategies for which both time and expense match the size of your company and availability of resources. Expensive and unnecessary theory is avoided.

Some advisors prepare and deliver expensive reports, leaving the company to implement a plan on its own. If plan design and implementation was that easy clients would not need advisory help in the first place.

“Peter has provided our board of directors with valuable critical and strategic thinking. He also has the rare talent of combining quality high level thinking with the ability to focus in on improving operational detail. And he does all this with a warm and engaging personality.”

Our Company has soared to new heights and it is a direct result of the work we have done with the Cleveland Leadership Group this past year. CLG continues to provide the Management Team with practical strategies that have enabled the company to phase into the next stage of business from a small IT startup company to an established local firm.

Being an entrepreneur can be a nerve racking experience and it is much easier to sleep at night knowing that we have an experienced advisor to call on whenever we have a question or concern
