About Us.
Not just consultants – partners in growth.
CONA Consulting is a Liberia-based advisory firm dedicated to helping organizations unlock growth by aligning strategy, people, and technology. Whether navigating change, scaling operations, or investing in workforce capabilities—we guide clients from insight to execution.
We exist to support organizations that are building the future—especially in contexts where talent, technology, and infrastructure are evolving at once.
Our work focuses on three priorities:
Smart Digital Transformation
Tools and systems that enable—not overwhelm—people and performance
Workforce Development
Skilling teams to lead, adapt, and deliver in a digital-first economy
Execution-Focused Strategy
Helping leaders turn bold visions into measurable, sustained outcomes
"After a decade of experience in fintech and international development, I launched CONA to bring a new kind of consulting to organizations in Liberia and across Africa—one rooted in trust, practical execution, and local insight. I believe transformation doesn’t begin with technology—it begins with people. CONA exists to help leaders and teams design their future with clarity, purpose, and capability."
