WHAT MAKES US A GREAT PLACE TO WORK
The Prosen Center for Business Advancement is a high-performance boutique consulting firm led by Bob Prosen, a renowned CEO Mentor, former Fortune 1000 executive, bestselling author, and creator of MORP®, the Monthly Operational Review Process. Our work focuses on helping CEOs and Business Owners of mid-size companies accelerate growth, strengthen leadership teams, and rapidly improve profitability.
