About Us

Our Values

We are committed to upholding justice, righteousness, truth, honest speech, and love as foundational principles of our work, guided by biblical examples and teachings:

Justice: Just as Abel’s blood cried out from the ground (Genesis 4:10), we recognize the sacred call to pursue fairness and accountability in every interaction, ensuring that integrity and equity are at the heart of what we do.
Righteousness: Inspired by Abraham's plea to God to spare the righteous in Sodom (Genesis 18:23-33), we seek to reflect God’s character by acting with moral uprightness and a heart for what is good and holy.
Truth: As Jesus declared, "You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free" (John 8:32), we are committed to speaking and standing for truth, fostering clarity and transparency in all our endeavors.
Honest Speech: Following the example of Stephen, who spoke boldly and truthfully even in the face of persecution (Acts 7:54-60), we strive for courage in communication, ensuring our words are rooted in sincerity and guided by love.
Love: Reflecting the greatest commandment, “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind... and love your neighbor as yourself” (Matthew 22:37-39), we are dedicated to serving with compassion, grace, and selflessness, putting others' needs above our own.

About Dr. Lucas

I am excited to share with you a little about myself and the philosophy behind Management Action Group. My name is Dr. Nathanael Lucas, and I bring years of experience as a business owner and consultant, working hands-on in real-world management. My passion for understanding what drives successful businesses has led me to conduct extensive research that extends the body of knowledge in this field. My findings have been published and are used today in both academic and practical business applications.

In 2018, my research culminated in a dissertation titled Identifying Relationships Between The Customer Focus Scores of Mission and Vision Statements and Customer Satisfaction Scores.

These findings form the backbone of Management Action Group's business philosophy: focusing on nine specific strategic areas to elevate customer satisfaction. The result? Increased sustainability, growth, and profitability for the businesses we serve.

I'm thrilled to bring these insights to life through actionable strategies that drive real results for your business!
