Newhouse Project Consulting Chief Operating Officer Jerry Newhouse has over 20 years’ experience in the business, strategic and financial planning arena, providing superior results and business excellence for healthcare, banking and software industries. He is recognized as a strategic thought leader, problem-solver with exceptional business acumen, and highly effective communicator. Before Newhouse Project Consulting, Jerry held a variety of leadership positions with Fortune 100 companies including Wells Fargo, Kaiser Permanente, Ford and General Motors. He has a proven track record as an Executive Advisor, financial strategist and driver of performance and productivity improvements within organizations.
Through Jerry’s experience in Mergers and Acquisitions, and his development of new business tools and processes he has gained a great appreciation for the “human impacts: of organizational change; and has become a proponent of NPCs key focus areas: 1) organizational development, 2) technology, strategy and implementation, and 3) change management and adoption. Jerry co-founded Newhouse Project Consulting with the goal of providing NPC with his executive operations experience and wealth of financial expertise across various industries. His goal is to help expand NPCs footprint, nationally and globally, and to ensure that customers strategic and financial goals are in alignment. Jerry’s business philosophy is to allow facts to “marinate” before providing comprehensive, thoughtful recommendations to clients to achieve their operational and sales goals. Jerry’s insight and ability to provide digestible chunks of information equip clients to make the right informed decisions, followed-up by executable action plans. What Clients are saying? “Jerry’s first assignment as a consultant involved him “reminding” our planning team of the integrated nature of a solid and comprehensive budget process in the sales environment. Jerry managed to take a very frail concept document and designed integrated processes and tools, which not only incorporated sales and account management planning, but also quota- setting and capacity planning. The approach he installed has proven instrumental in developing well-rounded forecasting, and determining the viability of our locations around the country. Jerry had the opportunity to showcase his influence skills when he presented his tool and accompanying reporting and analytics to senior leadership. His tool provided the ability for management to create scenarios – best to worst case – and understand vulnerable locations. His final product incorporated all facets required to create and support the budget process in a streamlined and automated tool. That was nearly 5 years ago, and Jerry’s tool is still in use today.”
