Mike Ford Named Among San Diego’s Men of Influence
Mike Ford is the managing director and founding member of PBO Advisory Group (formerly ProBackOffice), one of San Diego’s leading outsourcing and business consulting firms. He holds more than 30 years of management consulting, business advisory and outsourcing experience, and has provided services to over 500 clients throughout the West Coast. He is well-versed in management consulting and has founded numerous finance and accounting consulting start-ups that he has seen through to successful exits (IPO, ESOP and sale) including Temecula-based NBS Government Finance Group, which he sold to the company’s employees through an ESOP arrangement. PBO’s success is largely due to Ford’s vision of creating a company that is built on a team environment. His generous nature and passion for charity led him to mentor PBO’s philanthropic committee PBO Serves. He volunteers at Our Lady of Perpetual Help in Lakeside, is a former planning commissioner for the city of La Mesa, former trustee and board member for the Leukemia Society and has been a guest instructor at San Diego State University. He has also co-authored two books: “Brotherhood of the Pigskin: A Fantasy Football Nov,” and “The Blue Bombers: the True Story of the 2009 Little League Champions.”
