About Us
Practical Insight. Smart Strategy. Real Support.
We’re a Grenada-based consultancy working with entrepreneurs and growing businesses across the Caribbean and beyond. We believe in strategy that fits your reality, systems that actually work, and support that feels genuinely human.
We believe in showing up with structure but never losing sight of the soul behind the business. We help you protect what you’ve built, refine what’s messy, and move forward with confidence.
Since 2012, we’ve worked across a myriad of industries – hospitality, construction and engineering, marine and yachting, real estate, distribution, and multi-generation family enterprises. Whether you’re a seasoned executive or building your first venture, we meet you where you are.
Sage is not here to overwhelm you with business jargon. We’re here to bring calm to the chaos and wisdom to the work.
What We Offer
- Strategy that actually fits your reality — not cookie-cutter frameworks that fall apart in practice
- Leadership and team support — building stronger connections and clearer communication
- Untangling the daily chaos — creating systems so you can think clearly instead of just reacting
- Thought partnership — a trusted sounding board for entrepreneurs and creatives navigating growth
Whether you’re just starting out or scaling fast, we meet you where you are with tools that make sense, language you can relate to, and a pace that respects your reality.
About the Founder
Carlana McGuire has been a full-time entrepreneur since 2005, building and growing businesses while helping others do the same. As a seasoned HR strategist and business consultant with over a decade of Caribbean experience, she brings a unique blend of people-centered insight, strategic clarity, and grounded wisdom to every conversation.
Her work is shaped by years of hands-on experience across sectors, a deep understanding of what it really takes to build something sustainable, and a passion for helping others lead with both heart and intelligence. Carlana learned early that the strategies that work in textbooks don’t always work in the real world — especially in our regional context.
She’s also the creator of Sage Strategy, our thought leadership platform that brings these insights to a wider audience.
About Sage Strategy
Sage Strategy is where we share the real stuff. Everything we share comes from the actual challenges and breakthroughs happening in our consulting work each week.
You’ll find Sage Strategy on our blog, on Facebook, in your Substack inbox, and scrolling through TikTok — sharing real insights for people building real businesses.
You’ll find us breaking down real-world challenges, sharing lessons from the field, and speaking directly to people who are building something that matters.
If you’ve ever thought, “I wish I had someone to talk this through with,” Sage Strategy is our way of being that someone.
Why “Sage”?
The word “sage” means wise, rooted, and useful. That’s what we aim to be. Not flashy. Not corporate for the sake of it. Just helpful. Just present.
We believe in:
- Clear thinking over complicated plans
- Healthy boundaries over hustle culture
- Sustainable growth over short-term wins
We work with people who are serious about their work but not always sure how to move forward. If that sounds like you, we’d love to come alongside you and support what you’re building.
