I need a logo for my business. It is a consulting business advising about business change and running change programmes/projects etc. I hope it will develop and grow. It is called Kellian Consulting - please see current website www.kellian.com for a view on the current look feel and logo.
I have been trying to give a sense of confidence, something with quality and to be trusted - trust is a big word. I am also trying to show a degree of creativity and not just following other people. My market is largely financial services if that matters.
The current shield holds a picture of a road leading to the rising sun, ie a new dawn within a traditional shape. I played with a motto underneath - either "in change we thrive" or a mock Latin phrase "mutatione vigemus". The other message I try and get across is "smarter change".
I am not fixed on colours and would look to run the successful idea through business cards and website. I coed my website in Serif WebPlus X6 if it matters.
Updates
Thank you all for your submissions so far. There are a number that look good to me, but as this has a lot to do with client/cutsomer perception I am going to put the 10 or so that I think most suitable up for a poll amomgst my contacts. I plan to do that at the weekend so please do get your ideas and designs in before the close on Friday.
Whatever the outcome this has certainly moved the Kellian logo forward.
Many thanks,
Ian.

First of all abject apologies to all designers. Work has been manic for the last week or so and I have had no time to give to this. I will sort it all today.
Thank you for your patience.

Requirements
Must have
- I expect it to have Kellian in the logo, but open to what else. I may even be persuaded to leave out Kellian as long as the rest of the identity is strong enough to sell the name and carry business cards, white paper templates and the website.
Want a sense of creativity and originality, but from sound foundations.
