we have years and years of experience
working on campaigns and with various advocacy organizations
we are now proudly employee-owned!
We are excited to announce that MBA Consulting Group (MBACG) has officially transitioned to an employee-owned company. This important step reflects our commitment to sharing success with our team, empowering our employees, and delivering even better service to our clients.
As the only employee-owned company in our industry segment, we are proud to be leading the way with this progressive move. By making our employees owners, we’re not just investing in their future—we’re also creating greater accountability and ownership at every level of the business. This ensures that our clients will benefit from even higher levels of service, dedication, and innovation.
The transition to employee ownership is part of our long-term strategy to help our team members build lasting wealth and a stake in the success of the company. We believe that when our employees succeed, our clients do too.
At MBACG, we’ve always strived to put people first—whether it’s our team or our clients—and this new structure reflects our continued dedication to that principle. We’re excited about this new chapter and what it means for the future of MBACG and everyone we work with.
Thank you for your continued support as we grow together!
