Grow with Purpose
For leaders, businesses, and organizations in the veterinary and animal health fields
Some of our current and past customers

Hi, I'm Dr. Melanie Barham
Owner, Principal Consultant
I built MKB Strategic Consulting to serve the veterinary and animal health sectors, where I've spent my career. Together with my team, we focus on supporting leaders and organizations to gain clarity on their strategy, and help them implement effectively. (No use in having a strategy if it sits in a drawer).
As someone who has led companies and organizations as an executive myself, and advised many more, I know that getting clarity, alignment, and having support to lead forward confidently makes all the difference.
If you need help with a strategic plan, strategy for your next stage of growth, facilitation of discussions that lead to alignment, or exceptional training for your team, we're here.
We're here to support purposeful growth and change
