Turn your vision into a company that can scale in 90 days.
Whether you’re a solopreneur founder, startup, or growing small business, we help you move from personality-driven hustle to a leadership operating system your team can actually run. In 90 days, we diagnose what’s holding you back, install clear priorities and rhythms, and build the structure that can carry your next level of growth.
- Strategic diagnosis before solutions: we map your vision, bottlenecks, and key metrics so everyone is clear on what must change in the next 90 days.
- Leadership + systems working together: we align roles, meetings, and decision-rights around the Circle of Growth™ operating system so the team is rowing in the same direction.
- Scale & succession, not just survival: we design processes, dashboards, and leadership habits that let the business grow beyond the founder—and move you closer to a real exit.

We’re not just in the business of leadership—
we’re in the business of organizational transformation.
Schiele & Associates exists for one mission: to give founders, leaders, and organizations the operating system they need to scale with discipline, clarity, and confidence. We don’t sell motivation—we install structure. We don’t chase trends—we build systems that last.
Founded by Theodore “Teddy Bear” Schiele, our firm blends military-grade execution, data-driven strategy, and people-first leadership. Structurally, we’re a C Corporation, but we operate with the intent and heart of a People Benefit Corporation—putting client outcomes, community impact, and long-term value at the center of every engagement.
We believe that wealth and impact are not mutually exclusive. That’s why our contributors and consultants are rewarded for performance—not diluted by red tape or unnecessary hierarchy. When we grow, our clients grow. When our clients grow, their people and communities rise with them.
Our proprietary leadership operating system, the Circle of Growth™, ensures every organization we touch becomes more aligned, more accountable, and more capable. Leaders level up. Teams gain clarity. Systems become repeatable. Execution becomes measurable.
If you’re ready to build a company where clarity is normal, alignment is expected, and results are inevitable—welcome to Schiele & Associates.
