We are a group of independent performance improvement consultants that has formed an informal partnership to deliver projects together. We each have our own businesses and sometimes that gets confusing for our clients, so this logo will be used for a landing page that describes who we are and why we are working together. Here's a part of that description: "The Partnerships for Organizational Excellence is an alliance of consultants, trusted advisors, and practitioners who are committed to driving optimal outcomes through initiatives focused on hard results." We provide business consulting, training, leadership development, executive coaching, and implementation support for large-scale performance issues.
Target Market(s)
Our clients are senior-level leaders (owners, CEOs, CFOs, VPs, Directors, etc.) of small to medium-sized businesses across industries.
Logo Text
The business name (The Partnership for Organizational Excellence) and the tag line is "better together". Because the name is so long, we'd like a logo where an image with the tagline could be used alone (think amazon "a"). We would consider eliminating the world "The" at the beginning if that allowed you a design benefit.
Colors

Requirements
Must have
- tagline "better together"; We are looking for something simple, clean and fresh that expresses movement (i.e. going from poor to great performance, improving a graph, achieving positive results, etc.).
Nice to have
- We have been intrigued by some of the dynamic black and white logos that seem to be trending. Keep colors in the blues, blacks, grays, and greens. More subtle than bright. We've provided some examples of businesses with long names.
Should not have
- bright colors. Please do not copy that similar image that keeps showing up (triangle with swishes coming out of it). The logo will primarily be used for a landing page and proposals.
