Managing Principal

Some leaders grow companies.

Others grow companies by transforming the way those companies think.

Mark Sims sits at that intersection.

With 25 years at the crossroads of strategy, M&A, and technology, Mark has quietly become the person businesses call when growth gets complicated. He has led as CEO. As Head of Strategy. As CIO. And he has operated inside private equity environments where performance is measured in precision, speed, and enterprise value.

But what makes Mark compelling is not just the titles.

It’s that he understands something most leaders miss: technology is not an IT decision. It is a value creation decision.

From leading ERP implementations to managing complex M&A transactions across consumer products, retail, manufacturing, and specialty packaging, Mark has seen what happens when systems either accelerate growth or quietly suffocate it. He has also seen how poorly integrated technology can destroy deal value during acquisitions.

With degrees in Industrial Engineering from the University of Michigan and Cleveland State University, and executive training at The Wharton School, he blends analytical rigor with real-world operator experience.

If you are building, scaling, acquiring, or preparing to exit, this is the conversation that forces you to rethink the invisible infrastructure beneath your business.
