Our perspective on ERP, leadership, and radical authenticity is coming soon. We’ll be sharing articles, practical lessons, and reflections from decades of experience leading through high-pressure projects and real-world dilemmas.
Because an employee‑first culture drives results. We help organizations succeed through technical excellence and authentic leadership.
TILI² (“Tell It Like It Is”) exists because we believe an employee-first culture isn’t a nice-to-have — it’s the only way to get results that last. We help organizations succeed through two lanes: technical excellence and authentic leadership.
ERP is never just software — it’s how your company runs. And too often, projects stall, systems underperform, or teams get buried under complexity. We’ve been there. With decades of Infor LN experience and a track record of rescuing struggling projects, we bring clarity, precision, and trust back into ERP. From strategy and integration design to full implementations and project turnarounds, we’re the team you call when the stakes are high and the room needs calm, honest leadership.
We help leaders and teams thrive under pressure. Through experiential workshops, coaching, speaking, and our podcast Notes from the Margin, we make leadership practical, human, and sometimes even fun. Our approach is grounded in Accountability, Reverence, Humor, Authenticity, and Humanity — values that sound simple until you actually try to live them. We don’t hand out glossy frameworks. We build space for leaders to wrestle with real dilemmas, practice honest conversations, and make values-driven choices that stick in the real world.
We’ve been trusted to lead ERP implementations, project rescues, and lead teams under the toughest conditions — where failure wasn’t an option and people and systems both had to work on day one.
We don’t overcomplicate things.
We tell it like it is.
ERP challenges. Leadership dilemmas.
You’ve got them. We live for them.
Congratulations Vince. You are a great consultant, insightful leader and thoughtful. I am so glad you got to the point of making this leap of faith. Consider me as a phone-a-friend if you need any support in this new venture. I know you will create great value for your clients. ...You completely validated my belief in you.

I have known the principal for over 25 years and I can state without reservation that he is one of the strongest technical and business aligned ERP consultants I have ever worked with. He brings a balance of theory and practice, and he combines that with extensive experience and a strong ethical and people oriented leadership style. I cannot recommend TILI² higher.

Vincent Murphy was the first person I ever hired to build a team. The GENUINE care he has for clients and employees is 100% unmatched. If you engage with his new venture, in a way he is confident he can add value, you can take that success to the bank. It will happen. Comport Consulting will be first in line to tap into his expertise. Go get ‘em, Vince!!!!
