Our Story & Philosophy

Process Redesign Grounded in How People Actually Work

At Bright Triangle, we help clients achieve their goals using tools they already possess and talent they have yet to uncover.

The Triangle: People, Technology, and Connections

When we founded Bright Triangle, every service we envisioned centered on three core touchstones: People, Technology, and Connections. The triangle in our name represents these three pillars.

We put 'Bright' first because we are drawn to clarity, vibrant energy, and clever solutions that eliminate daily operational friction and bring sanity back to the workday.

Los Angeles Roots, Worldwide Reach

Based in Los Angeles, we serve Southern California corporate clients locally and are fully equipped to deploy automated systems, deliver coaching, and manage legacy migrations for remote and hybrid teams globally—either via seamless remote collaboration or on-site worldwide.

The Urban Planning Foundation: Navigating Complexity and Human Change

Operational process improvement isn't just a technical challenge—it is a human change-management challenge.

Before founding Bright Triangle, Kevin Holliday spent nearly two decades as an urban planner managing complex initiatives with vocal, passionate constituencies. Directing one of the largest vanpool programs in the country at LA Metro and working on San Francisco's SFpark taught him a vital operational truth: technical solutions fail if you don't listen to the people in the room.

Whether convincing skeptical business associations why parking meters protect prime customer spaces or redesigning internal team handoffs, lasting change requires genuine buy-in. When we review your workflows, we don't just see software—we map the human habits, handoff bottlenecks, and daily routines that make or break execution.

The Frameworks That Guide Our Work

Great consulting isn’t built on guesswork, personal preferences, or passing corporate trends. Every workflow we redesign, dashboard we engineer, and executive presentation we coach is anchored in proven cognitive and communication frameworks.

We treat every electron on the screen—and every step in a process—like it costs money. By respecting the innate limitations of the busy brain and ruthlessly eliminating non-data clutter, we ensure your workflows flow smoothly, your data is unmistakable, and your team is aligned to take decisive action.

Explore some foundational books that guide our daily deliverables below. Click on any cover to read our full review and see how we put these principles into action for our clients.

By Garr Reynolds
