Sawatch Outliers is based in the Colorado Rockies at 10,200 feet. While our work spans organizations across the country and globally, our location reflects a mindset shaped by constrained environments and real-world tradeoffs.
It reinforces a simple principle: solutions must perform outside ideal conditions, because that’s where they’re ultimately judged.
Our Purpose
Clarity and Execution
Sawatch Outliers exists to bring disciplined analysis and execution-focused insight to decisions that truly matter.
Sawatch, a term rooted in Ute heritage meaning “blue earth spring,” reflects our respect for the land and the Indigenous peoples who stewarded it long before us. As Outliers, we believe small, intentional actions, taken by people who care deeply, can lead to extraordinary outcomes for organizations and the communities they serve.
