The team behind LeveragePoint comes from Monitor Group, a leading strategy consulting firm based in Cambridge MA with close ties to Harvard Business School. LeveragePoint was spun out of Monitor in January 2009 to bring its online marketing strategy tools and the platform they are built on to a larger market. The team at LeveragePoint combines people with backgrounds in marketing and strategy consulting, learning, publishing, knowledge management and community and collaboration software. This combination of knowledge is needed to create solutions that will impact business results.
