Known for his core values of connectivity, transparency, and inclusion, Guy has built a firm that empowers organizations to navigate digital transformation journeys by aligning people, processes, and technology., 

Under Guy’s guidance, Peloton leverages advanced technologies, such as Enterprise Performance Management (EPM), Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Supply Chain Management (SCM, Human Capital Management (HCM and cloud-based analytics to deliver measurable, lasting impact.

By prioritizing customer-centric innovation and creating a culture of accountability, he ensures that every transformation journey is not only effective but also sustainable. His leadership philosophy underscores the importance of empowering teams and embracing change, making Peloton a beacon of excellence in the consulting industry.

A Legacy Built on Passion & Vision

Guy’s professional journey began with a simple, powerful insight: technology alone doesn’t drive transformation – people do. This belief led him to establish Peloton Consulting Group, a firm dedicated to partnering with clients to not only implement technology but to enable fundamental business change and process improvement.

Solutions That Power Transformation

Peloton Consulting Group is a leading management and IT consulting firm, offering end-to-end digital transformation services. The firms’ capabilities span Advisory, Implementation, and Managed Services, with deep capabilities in:

  • Enterprise Performance Management (EPM)
  • Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)

With a focus of aligning strategy and execution, Peloton delivers results through its proprietary “Peloton Way” — a unique approach that aligns people, processes, and technology to drive measurable business results. 

“We don’t just deliver systems—we deliver transformation,” emphasizes Guy.

Leadership That Inspires

Guy’s leadership style emphasizes empowerment, trust, and collaboration. He believes in surrounding himself with the right people and giving them the autonomy to make impactful decisions. His guiding principles have been instrumental in driving Peloton’s growth and success:

– Customers as Partners: Co-creating success through collaboration  

– Fact-based Decisions: Leveraging data for clarity and direction

– Continuous Learning: Fostering an adaptive, innovative, curious workforce  

– Fire Bullets, Then Cannonballs: Testing ideas before investing big, calculated risk-taking and effective execution

– Culture of Ownership: Encouraging all team members to lead  

These values have shaped Peloton into a high performing, inclusive organization that consistently delivers results.  

Overcoming Challenges in Digital Transformation

Guy believes alignment – across people, processes, and technology – is the cornerstone of successful digital transformation. Many organizations invest in advanced technologies without adequately preparing their workforce or modernizing outdated processes, which hampers the realization of their full potential.

Another critical challenge is change management. Without clear communication, comprehensive training, and leadership buy-in, even the most sophisticated technology implementations can fail to deliver results. 

Peloton places a strong emphasis on stakeholder engagement, communication, and adoption strategies from the outset. The result: clients realize the full potential of their investments, not just system implementation.  

Staying Ahead of the Curve

Peloton remains at the forefront of technological advancements by being practitioners of their own solutions, Running its own operation on Oracle Fusion Applications. Peloton’s strong partnerships with technology leaders like Oracle keep them aligned with the latest platform advancements. Internally, the company fosters a culture of experimentation and continuous learning, encouraging teams to test new ideas, refine methodologies, and share insights. This dynamic approach ensures that Peloton not only stays ahead of technological trends but also delivers cutting-edge, impactful solutions to its clients. This hands-on approach, coupled with investments in R&D and strategic alliances, keeps the firm aligned with the latest innovations.

Artificial Intelligence as a Strategic Enabler 

Guy underscores the transformative role of artificial intelligence (AI). From financial forecasting to supply chain optimization and personalized customer experiences, Peloton integrates AI and machine learning to drive better decisions, automation, and predictive insights.

Looking ahead, Guy envisions AI becoming more intuitive industry specific. Peloton’s role, he says, will be to demystify AI, guiding clients to implement it responsibly while enhancing – not replacing – human capability. 

Customer-Centric Innovation

Guy believes that empathy is the foundation of customer-centric innovation. Peloton teams are trained to listen deeply, understand client pain points, and co-create solutions that go beyond strategic alignment to address day to day challenges.  

Cross-functional collaboration, open dialogue with clients, and a proactive mindset ensure that innovation leads to meaningful outcomes, not just outputs. This customer first philosophy drives both lasting partnerships and measurable results.

Empowering Employees 

Guy highlights Peloton’s unwavering dedication to its people, recognizing that employee engagement and professional growth are as vital as technological investments. From the very beginning, employees are equipped with robust training programs, mentorship opportunities, and leadership roles, fostering a sense of empowerment and purpose. The company provides a clear career trajectory, nurtures a collaborative culture, and ensures open access to executive leadership, creating an environment where individuals can thrive.

Peloton also places a strong emphasis on balance and community. Celebrating achievements and supporting one another during challenges are integral to the company’s people-first philosophy. This approach not only cultivates loyalty and high performance but also reinforces the belief that engaged employees are the cornerstone of delivering exceptional outcomes for clients. Through these efforts, Peloton continues to build a workplace where innovation, growth, and camaraderie flourish.

Philanthropic Work

Through the Peloton Kids Foundation, Guy extends his values of empowerment and opportunity to communities. The foundation supports children and families through funding, mentorship, and educational programs.

“Philanthropy isn’t a side initiative—it’s core to our identity. It reinforces our values of compassion, responsibility, and impact beyond business,” says Guy.

Shaping the Future of Consulting 

Guy predicts several key trends shaping the next era of consulting. Among these are a transformative future where Oracle AI agents fundamentally reshape how organizations operate within their Oracle Cloud Fusion ecosystem. As we guide customers through AI-enabled deployments, we’re witnessing unprecedented efficiency gains across critical business functions. In Finance, intelligent agents are revolutionizing accounts payable by automatically matching invoices, detecting anomalies, and streamlining approval workflows, reducing processing time by up to 80% according to Oracle’s internal studies. Supply chain operations are being transformed through predictive agents that anticipate demand fluctuations and optimize inventory levels. In Human Resources, AI agents are enhancing talent acquisition by intelligently screening candidates and providing real-time workforce analytics. This agent-driven approach represents a paradigm shift toward intelligent, self-learning systems that continuously adapt and optimize business processes, delivering measurable value for our clients.

Consulting firms will move from being project-based implementers to long-term strategic partners. As technologies evolve faster, clients will rely on trusted advisors who can help them stay agile, innovative, and compliant.

Firms will need to offer continuous value, not just one-time solutions. Peloton is already embodying this model with managed services, innovation labs, and strategic advisory offerings that extend well beyond go-live.

To stay ahead of these trends, Peloton is proactively investing in intellectual capital, strengthening strategic partnerships with technology leaders, and continuously evolving its service models. This forward-thinking approach ensures Peloton remains a trusted partner for organizations navigating the complexities of digital transformation.

Over the next five years, Peloton aims to:

  • Deepen industry vertical expertise, especially in retail, financial services, consumer packaged goods, manufacturing, and professional services
  • Expand globally by hiring highly skilled professionals
  • Lead in AI, helping customer navigate how to AI enable their enterprise applications
  • Continue influencing innovation as a top-tier Oracle partner  

“Peloton has grown into a global firm that empowers some of the world’s leading brands through innovative digital transformation solutions, a strong culture of ownership, and a relentless focus on delivering value,” concludes Guy.
