About
An operator, not a career consultant.
Yaggie Solutions is led by Andrew Yaggie. The reason the advice is worth something is that it comes from someone who has had to run the businesses it applies to.

The short version
Problem solving, and connecting people.
Andrew's Kolbe A Index puts his natural strengths squarely in two places: solving problems, and connecting people to the right people. That's not a personality-test party trick — it's a fair description of what an engagement here actually consists of. Someone comes in with a problem they've been carrying for two years. We take it apart, work out what's really causing it, and either fix it or introduce them to the person who should.
The other half is range. A farm, a funeral home, a brokerage, a software platform and a flight deck are wildly different businesses, and they all break in the same handful of ways: nothing is written down, the owner is the bottleneck, the systems don't talk to each other, and nobody is measuring the thing that matters. Having sat in all of those seats means we recognise the pattern quickly and don't need six weeks of discovery to find it.
Background
Where the judgement comes from.
Growing up
A family farm
Where most of this starts. Farms run on fixing what breaks with what you have, keeping several businesses going at once, and knowing that the season doesn't care whether you're ready. Still involved in agricultural ventures today.
15 years
Funeral service
Fifteen years in an industry with no margin for error, where the work is operational, emotional and regulated all at once, and where being organised is the whole job. It's also where the systems thinking came from — and, eventually, an AI platform built specifically for it.
Ongoing
A real estate team
Operating a working brokerage team: lead generation, CRM, marketing spend, listings, agents, closings. Every marketing and operations recommendation we make is one we've had to live with in our own P&L.
Ongoing
Technology and AI
Years of IT and technology consulting, and today a multi-tenant AI voice and intake platform running in production. We are not describing AI from the outside — we ship it, support it, and pay the bills when it misbehaves.
Ongoing
Corporate pilot
Aviation is the most checklist-driven profession there is, and it is completely unsentimental about process. That habit — write the procedure, follow the procedure, review what went wrong — carries into everything else.
The name
Smarter systems. Better business.
It's a plain description of the job. Almost nothing we're asked to fix turns out to be a people problem — it's nearly always a system problem wearing a people problem's clothes. Build the better system and the rest usually sorts itself out.
