Ady Advantage Successor


Janet Ady, Ady Advantage Passes the Torch to Carolyn Chrisman, Chrisman Consulting

In 2022, Janet Ady retired from her role as president and founder of Ady Advantage. After twenty years at the helm of Ady Advantage, and decades more in economic development, this decision was well thought out and planned meticulously.  Janet’s goal in the last several years was to work with and vet other experts in her field with whom to connect clients after her retirement. This approach allowed her to mentor these experts and ensure Ady Advantage clients are in good hands.

If you’re a former or prospective client, Janet wants you to know her presence will now be behind the scenes, as she mentors hand-picked successors to carry the tradition forward.
