Beaird Group helps sales leaders build successful, aligned, and execution-focused selling organizations. Our portfolio of strategic sales consulting and sales team development services addresses the strategic, cultural, and sales process challenges, as well as the changing customer dynamics that impact selling performance.
It all started over 30 years ago under the name Critical Path Strategies (CPS).

Since integrating with Beaird Group in 2018, we’ve continued to help organizations lead, manage, develop, and coach their sales teams to deliver extraordinary value in complex selling environments.
