Helping businesses grow without tripping over themselves

Bonner-Murray Consulting works with ambitious founders, leadership teams, and boards to streamline operations, embed compliance, and build the internal strength needed for sustainable growth.

Growth should feel like progress, not chaos. But too often, businesses scale without structure. Operational blind spots, compliance gaps, or governance weaknesses quietly erode performance, valuation, and team confidence.

We help you spot the traps before you fall into them. And we build solutions that don’t just patch over the chaos. They prevent it.

Because businesses shouldn’t trip over their own success.

Who We Are

Greg Bonner founded Bonner-Murray Consulting after more than a decade inside regulated financial services. His experience includes executive leadership through acquisition, integration, and operational redesign.

He has led SMCR responsibilities across compliance and governance, chaired investment committees, and redesigned business systems that stand up to both scrutiny and scale.

He has sat where buyers sit. He has worked behind boardroom doors. He knows what weak foundations cost - in trust, value, and deals lost.

Now, he partners with leadership teams to challenge assumptions, fix inefficiencies, and ensure compliance supports growth instead of slowing it down.

As someone with ADHD, Greg has learned to thrive in complexity. He brings calm and structure to fast-moving, high pressure environments. These are the kinds of situations that often leave leaders feeling overwhelmed. That lived experience gives him insight into how to build systems that support focus, momentum, and clear decision making, especially for those who think differently.

Our Values

We ask the questions others avoid.

We don’t add noise. We bring clarity. That means having honest conversations early, not after things go wrong.

We make it easier to lead well.

Strategy, operations, compliance - they all rely on structure. We help you lead with confidence by building systems that support clear decisions and sustainable growth. They also help avoid setting traps further down the line.

We care about what happens after we leave.

The best consulting work creates lasting clarity, not short-term fixes. We leave your business stronger than we found it.

A note from Greg

I’ve worked in regulated businesses long enough to know where things fall apart. I’ve seen good businesses lose value because of back-office gaps, missed risks, or decisions made under pressure with too little structure behind them - or where leaders can’t give up control.

I’ve sat in senior roles where compliance, operations, and people issues all collided. Often, there was no roadmap. I know what it feels like to be spinning plates, solving problems in real time, and trying to keep momentum without losing control.

I also live with ADHD. It makes me good at pattern spotting, problem solving, and thriving in complexity - but only because I’ve learned how to build the structure I need to do my best work and keep the plates spinning. That experience shapes how I support others. I help people create space to think clearly, lead well, and grow on solid ground.

That’s why I do this work. Not just to fix systems or write reports. But to help leaders stay in control when it really matters, grow sustainably, and move forward with confidence, clarity, and control.
