A Message from Our Principal Partner
Chris Timmer
For more than three decades, I’ve dedicated my career to helping businesses grow through business efficiency consulting—building software and supply chain organizations from the earliest startup stages through scaling stages.
My background is intentionally diverse, spanning software, manufacturing, and distribution. That experience has given me a deep understanding of what it truly takes to succeed at every phase of growth: the right strategy, the right structure, and above all, the right people working together with purpose.
I’ve become known for strengthening companies through scalable execution, transformational leadership, and a culture of continuous improvement. Whether navigating rapid expansion or driving a turnaround, I believe success is unlocked through clarity, collaboration, and courage—fundamental principles in strategic planning consulting.
What drives me most is leadership development—empowering teams and individuals to rise confidently to their potential and create a lasting impact on the organizations they serve. Growth isn’t just about business outcomes; it’s about the individuals who make those outcomes possible.
Macatawa Consulting was built on that belief.
If your organization is ready to embrace change, sharpen your vision, and accelerate your success, I’d welcome the opportunity to partner with you on that journey—helping you achieve today’s goals while preparing the next generation of leaders for tomorrow.
Let’s grow forward—together.
