Cause + Effect Strategy

Big news for Cause + Effect Strategy and an exciting next chapter for our team, clients, and the work ahead. CES has been acquired by Insero.

Since 2015, we’ve been focused on one thing: helping organizations realize the full potential of their data. We’ve grown by building a team that connects business strategy, data architecture, data engineering, analytics, and AI to solve real problems and drive measurable business results.

Joining Insero gives us an opportunity to take that mission even further. By combining our data, analytics, and AI expertise with Insero’s deep capabilities across finance, accounting, and advisory services, we can bring clients an even more integrated view of their businesses and help them turn that insight into better decisions, stronger performance, and sustainable growth.

What matters just as much is what we share: a commitment to exceptional client service, trusted relationships, investing in our people, and making an impact in the communities where we live and work.

We’re incredibly proud of what the Cause + Effect Strategy team has built, grateful to the clients and partners who have been part of our journey, and energized by what comes next. Same commitment to measurable impact. An even stronger platform to deliver it.

Congrats and good luck! There’s no telling where we’d be as a company without our two IHS alumni team members!

⭐The seven IHS students who will head to Atlanta on Saturday for the DECA International Career Development Conference were celebrated last Friday at a luncheon at Monroe Golf Club hosted by 2001 IHS graduate John Loury, the President of Cause + Effect Strategy. It's the third straight year Mr. Loury has invited IHS DECA students headed to its most prestigious event to give their presentations in front of a few other IHS grads and local business leaders. That group included Lindsay Crane (Class of 2004) - Sales Account Executive, Sydor Optics; Rebecca Ferri (Class of 1998) - Chief Development & Communications Officer, Education Success Foundation; Jeff Casey (2001) - Counsel, CooperVision; John Mordaci - Vice President for Partnerships & Employer Engagement, Golisano Institute for Business Entrepreneurship.
