Elevating the Business You’ve Built.

Honoring the Legacy Behind It.

Empowering small businesses through operational excellence, leadership alignment, and team capability building — for enduring and sustained growth.

Strategic Support to Unlock Your Business’s Full Potential

At Macon Legacy, I provide strategic support and leadership consulting to small business owners to turn vision into action and operations into advantage.

My clients are experts in their craft, care deeply about their people, and are ready to align their operations and leadership to match long-term goals. Whether you're looking to improve customer experience, streamline internal systems, or navigate a period of growth, I bring over 15 years of operational leadership, workshop and facilitation expertise, and hands-on strategy to help you move forward.

This isn’t about quick fixes or generic playbooks. I work alongside owners and teams to uncover root causes, design practical solutions, and follow through on execution. I also lead visioning sessions, planning workshops, and leadership offsites — helping teams align on what matters and move forward with clarity.

Operational excellence and strategic alignment are the engines behind sustainable growth. I’m here to help you activate both — and build a business that performs at its highest potential.

Strategic Support to Strengthen Operations, Align Leadership, and Drive Sustainable Growth

At Macon Legacy, I offer consulting, facilitation, and leadership development support designed to meet the unique needs of small businesses. Whether you're looking to improve operational performance, align your leadership team around key priorities, or lay the foundation for lasting growth, I bring structure, clarity, and hands-on partnership to every engagement — helping you build a stronger, more resilient business.

  • Conducting in-depth evaluations of your operations to identify gaps, uncover hidden opportunities, and create a clear path to stronger performance.

  • Streamlining processes, eliminating bottlenecks, and building more efficient workflows that strengthen your customer experience and internal operations.

  • Turning strategy into action by designing execution plans, establishing accountability, and driving initiatives forward with discipline and focus.

  • Leading structured sessions to align ownership and leadership teams around a shared vision, key priorities, and immediate next steps.

  • Facilitating clear, practical conversations that help teams define their future direction, set strategic goals, and build actionable roadmaps.

  • Strong operations start with strong teams. I help you clarify roles, build accountability structures, and improve how your team works together — all while fostering a culture of ownership and excellence.

  • Running a business can feel isolating — especially when you're leading growth. I serve as a thought partner to business owners navigating operational complexity, strategic decisions, or organizational change. Together, we build practical, actionable growth plans that align with your values, goals, and the legacy you're working to protect.

  • Staying engaged beyond the planning phase to lead initiatives, troubleshoot challenges, and ensure that strategies are successfully implemented and embedded.

I am Tarra Sharp, the founder of Macon Legacy — a consulting practice dedicated to helping small businesses strengthen their operations, grow with intention, and build on the legacy they have already created.

With over 15 years of experience in operational strategy, performance improvement, and executive leadership, I have led impactful programs and large-scale transformations at Fortune 500 companies like American Express, McKinsey & Company, and American Airlines — as well as consulted with and worked at fast-moving startups. I bring that same level of rigor, clarity, and follow-through to the small business leaders I work with today. My goal is to be a trusted partner in making your business more efficient, resilient, and aligned with the future you want to create.

The name Macon Legacy honors my third great-grandparents, John and Hattie Macon — once enslaved people who became triumphantly entrepreneurial farm owners. Their strength and purpose guide my work, reminding me that legacy isn’t just what we build — it’s what we sustain, elevate, and pass on.

If you are ready to bring excellence into your operations and momentum into your growth, I am here to help you make it happen.
