The Herlihy Group is a management consulting firm focused on helping successful companies create and sustain a competitive advantage

In the early 1980s, Jack Herlihy was teaching in the Agribusiness Department at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. With a growing family and a professor's salary, he built a consulting practice on the side. It turned out to be the best decision he ever made.
The classroom and the boardroom were the same life. Jack spent his weeks working with the companies that feed this country and his quarters teaching the young people who would one day run them. Every lesson came from working with Western US agriculture businesses. Real companies. Real decisions. Real stakes.
The Herlihy Group was built on something we believe in deeply: show up, tell the truth, do the work, and always care more about the client's outcome than the invoice.
