We help enterprise leaders regain control of complex technology and transformation portfolios — delivering decision-grade visibility, disciplined governance, and predictable outcomes.
Where Strategy meets Execution. Built Ruthless. Delivering Transformation.
"We build more than businesses. We share empires. We transform industries. We leave legacy."
— Kimberly M. Hicks, FounderStabilize what’s at risk.
Systemize what must scale.
Institutionalize what must endure.
Queen & Briggs provides fractional transformation leadership and executive advisory services to strengthen enterprise execution: stabilizing delivery environments, redesigning execution systems, and enabling intelligence-driven governance that restores clarity, control, and confidence at scale.
Execution confidence is earned through disciplined governance, decision-grade visibility, and measurable outcomes. We build execution systems that hold — long after the mandate ends.
Executives see what is real — in time to act.
Capital, priorities, and delivery operate under clear decision authority and measurable accountability.
On-time delivery. Controlled budgets. Measurable business impact.
Queen & Briggs Consulting is named after two extraordinary women — my grandmothers, Queen Miles Hicks and Ruth Briggs Wilks. Before I tell you a single thing about credentials, I want to tell you where I come from. Because everything I've ever built traces back to them.
"I learned everything from my Grandmom Ruth. The delivery excellence. The drive. The never giving up. That's 100% her."
People ask why I maintain the intensity that produced results at Disney scale. The answer is simple: I come from women who had to. Their sacrifice meant I had no excuse for mediocrity. Their legacy means when you work with Queen & Briggs, you inherit the spirit of two women who transformed everything with limited resources and impossible obstacles.
A sharecropper who raised 14 children. When her kids had to work the farm instead of attending school, Queen poured everything into ensuring the next generation would have opportunities she never did. Her sacrifice made mediocrity unacceptable. It still does.
Started as a maid with an 8th-grade education. Built a beauty salon, a barber shop, real estate investments. Widowed in 1963 — she kept building. Became the bank for Black families in Emporia, VA when real banks wouldn't serve them. Worked until she was 88.
It's not a tagline. It's a legacy. The ruthlessness is the kind that comes from watching two fearless women build everything from nothing — the kind that doesn't recognize the word impossible.
Queen & Briggs provides fractional transformation leadership and executive advisory services for organizations navigating complex technology transformation and enterprise delivery challenges.
Every engagement begins with a focused discussion to understand the underlying execution challenge and determine where stabilization, governance, or leadership support is needed most.
Queen & Briggs works with organizations through focused fractional leadership and executive advisory engagements. Our core capabilities include:

Queen didn't raise 14 children by doing it alone — she built a family system strong enough to carry forward. Ruth didn't just solve individual problems for her community — she created lasting infrastructure that outlived any single moment of need.
That's what we do for organizations. When the engagement ends, you're stronger — with sustainable systems, developed leaders, and proven capabilities that keep delivering long after we're gone.
We don't create consulting dependency. We build leaders and capabilities that your organization owns — because the best consulting relationships end with you not needing us anymore.
Work With UsIf my grandmothers could transform everything with limited resources and impossible obstacles, your organization can absolutely transform execution with the resources you have.
If delivery is unpredictable, teams are overwhelmed, or your transformation seems stuck, Queen & Briggs is ready to change that.
