Ythos Consulting

Stress less about the business jargon and focus more on the results that will help you achieve success.

About:

Hello, my name is Beau Ritchie and I am the founder/owner of Ythos Consulting.

So… why Ythos? The name was my play on ethos “the distinguishing character, sentiment, moral nature, or guiding beliefs of a person, group, or institution” along with what I feel is an essential aspect of any critical business decision and that is answering the why or “Y.”

I’ve spent the last 15 years of my career wearing many hats in all aspects of operations and leadership in the healthcare industry, ranging from Durable Medical Equipment, Behavioral Health, and Applied Behavior Analysis. Through this experience, I found my passion in creating meaningful results, not just from a financial perspective, but in fostering an inclusive environment that values collaboration and empowers employee’s and leaders to achieve success.

From supporting and executing mergers and acquisitions to managing 60 million-dollar operations across multiple time zones, I have developed a broad range of understanding in overall operations. Over the last year, I have researched and supported small business ventures such as brick and mortar retail and fire safety and commercial kitchen suppression systems. Whether you need expertise in marketing and compliance, human resources, IT, project management, or just driving operational excellence within existing processes, I can help you reach your goal.

General Business Consulting/Project Management

It all starts somewhere… mid startup, fresh idea, established business. General consulting and project management can always be a benefit, especially when you know it is a short-term demand. Getting over the hurdle and avoiding additional long-term expenditures can help you achieve success faster.

Leadership Training and Team Development

Beau was always very professional, honest, easy to talk and very very knowledgeable; it is so impressive how dedicated he is; he took so much time to do research and immersed himself in our business to learn as much as he could in order to understand our needs. In conclusion, I feel like he is part of our team now…

“A standout operator and leader in his field… brilliant with analytical and operational challenges. He is also a great team member – a 100% circle of trust type of teammate. Would welcome on any future teams and will continue to reach out for advice! A true example of "Leaders Eat Last" but is able to have crucial conversations!

“the secret ingredient that helped our market to be the huge success that it was. It didn't matter how small someone's role was within the organization, he valued every team member and made them feel important.”
