The Art and Science of Strategy

Learn more

Our Strategy Masterclass Framework organizes strategic thinking into five interconnected pillars that constitute the Art and Science of Strategy:

Mindset, Systems, Positions,

Choices, Action

Challenges We Solve

We believe every leader can be a great strategist, able to assess, develop, communicate, and execute winning strategies.

  • Many leadership teams operate with outdated strategies, unclear priorities, or blind spots in market dynamics—leaving them vulnerable to disruption.

  • With new acquisitions or when market conditions shift or growth stalls, leadership often struggles to calibrate quickly—wasting critical time and resources.

  • Leaders know the pace of change is accelerating, but lack a structured way to look ahead, sense shifts in value, and make timely strategic pivots before the market forces their hand.

  • Executives face uncertainty about how AI will reshape their industry, where value will shift, and how to transform responsibly—balancing innovation with ethical and operational risk.

  • Leaders often struggle to see which initiatives truly create value, which drain resources, and where to place the next smart bets. Without clear insight into portfolio performance and alignment with strategy, organizations risk spreading resources too thin or missing breakthrough opportunities.

What our clients are saying

"As the leader of an organization going through a moment of inflection, I thought I understood strategy — Trigate Coaching expanded my understanding of what good strategy really is. Their masterclass transformed strategy from something abstract or too prescriptive into a clear, structured way of thinking that we can apply every day. Trigate helped us see strategy not as a static plan, but as a living mindset we can use to navigate uncertainty, environmental challenges, and the evolving demands on collaborative governance. Our team walked away with greater alignment, new language for articulating our intent, and renewed confidence in our role as a trusted, nonpartisan service. This was more than a workshop — it was a turning point in how we lead, make choices, and position Oregon Consensus to thrive for the next 20 years.”

"Brandon Barnett and Trigate Coaching have been a powerful part of my startup journey. Brandon has a real gift for asking the tough yet necessary questions that cut through the noise and bring clarity. He helped me focus on 'what would have to be true' for Thrive Guides to succeed. As I continue refining my MVP and moving toward true product/market fit, Brandon’s insight, frameworks, and generosity of spirit have been invaluable. His honest conversations and sharp thinking—sometimes challenging, always supportive—have pushed me forward. If you’re a founder navigating early-stage strategy and need someone who can balance vision with reality checks, Brandon is the person you want by your side."
