Chris McCormick's journey to co-founding Fox Knoll Business Solutions is a story of innovation, leadership, and a relentless drive to deliver transformative results. With over 25 years of experience in consulting, information technology, and operations management, Chris has consistently demonstrated an ability to build high-performing teams and execute strategies that enhance performance, drive profits, and spur growth.

His career began with a focus on leveraging technology to solve complex challenges. At Lockheed Martin, Chris played a pivotal role in the development of their Energy & Cyber Services division, leading strategic planning initiatives that secured over $2 billion in sales. As the division's first business development manager, he generated $5 million in revenue in its inaugural year, laying the foundation for a thriving commercial strategy.

Chris's expertise expanded during his tenure at Baker Tilly Virchow Krause, LLP, where he spearheaded business development and delivery of NetSuite software and IT strategy services. His success in building client-centric solutions set the stage for his next chapter at Deloitte Consulting, where he became a recognized leader in Deloitte Digital. Overseeing $85 million in sales and $45 million in managed revenue, Chris drove the expansion of the Deloitte NetSuite practice, leading global enterprise deployments and mentoring teams to scale operations effectively. His thought leadership in finance transformation culminated in co-authoring the article "M&A Loves the Cloud," published in the Wall Street Journal, and presenting industry webinars on the impact of cloud technology.

Chris currently serves as a Director at RSM US LLP, where he continues to drive operational excellence and deliver tailored solutions that align with client goals.

With a proven track record of building scalable frameworks for success and a passion for innovation, Chris co-founded Fox Knoll Business Solutions to help companies unlock their potential through technology-driven efficiencies, strategic planning, and market-focused solutions. His vision and expertise are instrumental in driving Fox Knoll’s mission to empower businesses to thrive in an ever-evolving landscape.

Fox Knoll Business Solutions began with a simple yet powerful idea: great businesses aren’t just built—they’re cultivated. Inspired by a lifelong passion for helping organizations thrive, founder Caroline McCormick drew from decades of leadership experience in corporate and entrepreneurial settings.

Caroline is a dynamic, results-driven owner/operator with over 30 years of experience in leading high-performing teams, driving strategic initiatives, and delivering impactful marketing and sales outcomes. Expertise in project management, marketing communications, and strategic planning with a proven track record of exceeding business objectives. Adept at managing complex, large-scale projects while optimizing resources and timelines. Passionate about leadership, team development, and fostering an innovative, collaborative culture. 

Caroline’s career journey started in national field sales, where she consistently outperformed sales targets and gained firsthand insights into the importance of customer relationships, streamlining processes, and cross-functional collaboration to drive growth. She then transitioned into the multi-unit education space, quickly rising through the ranks and eventually serving as the Vice President of Marketing, Admissions, and Enrollment, overseeing a vast network of schools nationwide. Along the way, she developed a deep understanding of what drives organizational success: clear communication, a solid strategy, and authentic connections.

Recognizing a gap in how businesses approach operational efficiency and strategic growth, Caroline and her husband Christopher established Fox Knoll Business Solutions to share their unique blend of skills. Combining her expertise in storytelling and market research with her successful track record of building high-performing teams, she set out to help businesses of all sizes not only meet but exceed their goals.
