The Big Sky Way
We are humble, hungry, and smart. In 2009, Dr. Eaton started Big Sky Way. to accommodate a growing International education, consulting, and performance coaching clientele.Â
Dr. Eaton built his business around these same core virtues he learned farming and ranching with his family in Union Valley.
Today, Big Sky Way. is a celebration of these virtues, and woven into organizational development solutions for today's complex organization.

Our Philosophy
We Are a Different Kind of Management Consulting and Education Firm.
You’re a fast-paced small business seeking to move from chaos to clarity. You need clear and simple leadership mechanisms and business solutions to help you get there.
Your business is nimble, creative, and action-oriented, yet you've been frustrated by past solutions that didn’t deliver. You’ve invested in training, only to be left with vague, feel-good concepts that don’t address your real needs. Or, you’ve hired consulting firms that provide generic recommendations, leaving you with a stack of papers and no real support to align, execute, or implement solutions. As a result, your real-world business problems remain unsolved.
At Big Sky Way Leadership College, we pride ourselves on delivering leadership solutions that are simple, tailored to your needs, and grounded in theory and research. Our approach starts with core knowledge in leadership, management, strategy, business, and organizational health. We then apply this knowledge directly to your specific challenges to fix real problems.
Our solutions include 1-page worksheets for immediate use in your business, lifetime learning platforms for revisiting key concepts, and specific advice tailored to your unique situation. We also provide ongoing support with 30/60/90-day reviews and implementation guide to ensure momentum and accountability. If we don’t help you achieve your goals, we haven’t done our job.
ARE WE A GOOD FIT?Â
What makes a great fit with Big Sky Way Leadership College? Over the years, we’ve found that our most successful clients share three key virtues: humility, hunger, and people common sense.
HUMBLE: Great clients lack excessive ego and prioritize the team and business over individual success. They define success collectively and are open to taking ownership of their situation. In contrast, clients who are arrogant or unwilling to take responsibility hinder progress, making it difficult for us to help solve real business challenges.
HUNGRY: Great clients are intrinsically motivated and constantly seeking ways to improve. They are driven to take the next step and find new opportunities for growth. On the other hand, businesses that are complacent and comfortable with the status quo often struggle to embrace the effort required for continuous improvement.
PEOPLE COMMON SENSE: Great clients have a keen understanding of people, relationships, and communication. They are self-aware, possess strong judgment, and recognize the impact of their words and actions. Clients who lack this awareness often face communication issues, misunderstandings, and unhealthy conflicts, making it challenging to implement effective solutions.
When clients bring these virtues to the table—or are willing to work on them—they form lasting partnerships with Big Sky Way. They embrace challenges, take ownership, seek learning opportunities, and inspire their teams to do the same. Over time, they see significant transformation, with their core ideology taking hold, strategies delivering value, leaders performing, and employees fully engaged.
Clients who lack these virtues, or have no desire to develop them, often find themselves stuck in a cycle of chaos, constantly putting out fires and hindering their own effectiveness. As a result, they become frustrated with the process, and five years down the road, they find themselves starting over with a new consultant, without any real progress.
