About Council Fire

Council Fire is a world-class management consulting firm working with clients to "operationalize" sustainability and harness the power of information to drive competitive advantage and success in both the public and private sectors. They counsel leading United States and international organizations in the mechanics of transitioning to sustainable operations in order to "redefine profit" in their endeavors and to accomplish economic growth, while simultaneously creating environmental and social value. Their principals have been engaged in providing sustainability-related counseling for over ten years, making them one of the first providers of such services in the United States. Their unique and innovative programs have been recognized with national and international awards and acclaim.

We became a B Corp to simultaneously lead by example and join an ever-expanding community of like-minded organizations who recognize the necessity of being the change that they seek. Sustainability is our mantra, our ethos and our identity, and we come to work every day knowing that we are advancing communities, economies and environments toward that end.

Their world-leading clients include private entities (China Light and Power, AES, NRG/Bluewater Wind, and other multinational corporations), non-profits (World Wildlife Fund, Environmental Defense Fund, Marine Stewardship Council, and Wildlife Habitat Council), governmental entities (U.S. Army, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and Maryland Port Administration), and philanthropic organizations (Walton Family Foundation and Keith Campbell Foundation, among many others).

The Change We Seek®

"Profit Redefined." This simple phrase captures the broad vision of Council Fire and summarizes their mission of helping organizations "operationalize" sustainability and harness the power of information to drive competitive advantage and success and, in doing so, "redefine" what it means to "profit."

Yes, they certainly assist their clients in their pursuit of financial profit, however, critical new types of profits have emerged: profits that can be measured in healthy ecosystems and thriving communities, and that strike a balance between cash flow and clean air, return on investment and revitalized neighborhoods, and margins and magnanimous acts. It is within these acts of redefinition that Council Fire thrives. Their team is committed to help clients in this pursuit by understanding their needs and those of their constituents, to perform these services around the world with unparalleled quality, and to constantly innovate and lead in the pursuit of sustainable success.
