About Us

AUGMNT’s work is shaped by a long-standing focus on how organizations think, decide, and relate to uncertainty over time, not only on what they execute.

AUGMNT helps organizations that want to manage growth, continuity, and risk deliberately over time. We work upstream of execution, where clarity and strategic coherence are shaped.

We do this through a dual approach:

First, we help organizations develop strategic capacity for the future—using Futures Literacy, foresight, and horizon-based thinking to see beyond immediate pressures and build adaptive capability across time.

Second, we apply portfolio management logic—borrowed from investment practice and informed by the Alpha and Beta distinction—to how organizations allocate resources and attention. Your organization is a portfolio: of human capital, intellectual assets, infrastructure, market position, and financial resources. Like any portfolio, it requires active management, strategic allocation, and continuous rebalancing to generate superior returns.

Rather than offering isolated tools or interventions, AUGMNT works at the junction where leadership orientation becomes management action. We distinguish between beta activities (efficiently capturing baseline industry returns) and alpha activities (generating excess returns through competitive advantage).

Through our proprietary frameworks (like 3H1S), we help organizations systematically shift resources toward alpha generation while determining what must be protected in the present, what needs to adapt in transition, and what must be prepared for the future. This eliminates Strategic Deficit—the incomplete visibility across time horizons that causes strategic decisions to fail.

We have a commitment to bring world-class solutions to our market.

I am Chris (Christian) Royer, the founder of AUGMNT.

My background spans law—real estate, financing, and securities—alongside financial planning + brokerage, investor relations and continuous reporting, trading, and risk management. This experience is complemented by interest and studies in systems disciplines, including Total Quality Management, System Dynamics, and the Viable System Model. I am also certified by the Institute for the Future (IFTF), bringing disciplined foresight and futures thinking methods to organizational strategy.

Since organizations don’t experience growth, risk, and continuity as separate problems, but across time, I work with the Three Horizons as one integrated system—3H1S—treating direction, adaptation, and continuity as a single portfolio management responsibility.
