Simply Strategy WBE and WOSB Certified and “Teaming” Ready

Updated: Apr 1, 2020

The Women’s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC) is the largest certifier of women-owned businesses in the U.S. and a leading advocate for women business owners and entrepreneurs. Through regional partner organizations, WBENC verifies that companies are at least 51% owned and controlled by one or more women, and that management and daily operations are controlled by one or more of the women owners. WBENC is also a third-party certifier for the United States Small Business Administration (SBA) Woman Owned Small Business (WOSB) program.

Simply Strategy has been awarded both of these distinguished certifications as the founder, Dorothy Carlin, Principal, is the only shareholder. Simply Strategy held a certification as a Woman-Owned Business Enterprise (WBE) by the State of Missouri but chose to scale its network of connections to a national level.


Simply Strategy is proud of its status as a small, woman-owned business, which propels its insights-driven, personalized approach to projects. This sense of pride and passion starts at the top of its nimble team, and Carlin sees that, coupled with the national certifications, it will lead to more opportunities for the firm in the future. “In addition to serving clients directly, Simply Strategy intends to leverage its certification with partners and in ‘teaming’ with government contractors to bring our capabilities and perspective to successful outcomes for its corporate and government clients,” according to Carlin.
