About The Whitestone Group

Business Consulting and Services
11-50

The Whitestone Group is a fully independent organization that specializes in successfully assisting organizations transform their business through the intelligent application of people, process and technology.
What is our core strength and key differentiator?

Quite simply, it’s our people. We have people you don’t normally find, skills combinations that are rare, and a level of experience that we'll stack up against anyone. Whatever you want to do (within our areas of expertise), odds are we’ve been there and done that. Successfully.

We are firm believers that in today’s world,

Businesses can no longer succeed without an intimate understanding of what technology can do for them. 

Businesses can no longer succeed without a strong ability to implement technology in a way that is of maximum benefit to their specific requirements.  

Business transformation success requires people that can speak both “biz” and “tech”.  

To leap ahead of the pack you need people on your team that have done it before, otherwise you will spend most of your time re-inventing, instead of inventing.

We bring to the table a team of highly experienced and accomplished people who have been very successful in their careers. Our philosophy is simple: Work hard, bring all our experience to the table, work with (not against) those around us, have a bit of fun, and work ourselves out of a job while at the same time passing on our knowledge.
