Short Narrative:

Texas Consilium is a nonprofit economic development organization with a mission to improve the prosperity of Texas by improving the performance, growth and profitability of Texas businesses. Unlike most economic development organizations that focus on recruiting new businesses to the community, Texas Consilium complements those organizations by working primarily with existing businesses to improve their productivity, profitability, growth, and prosperity — empowering Texas businesses and their employees to achieve their true potential.

Recognized by the Texas House of Representatives and Texas Governor for our unique role in economic development for the State of Texas, the Texas Consilium brings together highly-experienced, seasoned executives and professionals who can address virtually any business issue. Collectively we have worked in thousands of businesses where we have seen what works and what doesn’t. By working together with more businesses to become their best, Texas Consilium works to move the economic development needle and create measurable impact for the State of Texas and its various communities.

“Consilium” is Latin for “Council of wise advisors.” It is a powerful concept!
