Building Legacies through Sovereignty, Sustainability, and Service
Creating Legacies, Building Impact: Beyond Success. Conscious leadership links passion and purpose to profit, and that is the conviction I bring to every conversation, every board room, and every mission I serve.
After 26 years leading in Korea, Egypt, Qatar, and Iraq, I came home with one simple truth: sustainable impact requires systems and community. That conviction led me to a converted tax office in North Omaha in February 2019, where a civil rights icon named Preston Love Jr.—who had just survived a stroke—was already in motion, giving orders, refusing to stop. I showed up to help him. As a typical veteran who had lost purpose and community after retirement, Preston gave me back my fire. That moment became Beacon 4sight Group.
Today I work at the intersection of strategy, service, and sustainability—helping veterans, entrepreneurs, and nonprofit founders build organizations that outlast them. I also invest in mission-driven ventures aligned with conscious capitalism, where profit and purpose are not competing forces.

Testimonials
"Vince and Rikki have taken us from a non-profit that is doing good work but not ready to go to the next level. However with their help we have streamlined our processes and become a certified non-profit with all the credentialing needed when looking to receive grants and donations." - Hardwick Foundation
"Beacon 4sight Group has been instrumental in the launch of Chairs of Honor. Without their expertise and assistance, we'd still just be an idea. Through their personalized assistance and weekly encouragement, I've stayed on task and been able to achieve real success in just 90 days. We already have funding, programming and projects underway thanks to Beacon's work with us early on in our venture." - Chairs of Honor

"I’ve had the pleasure of working with Vince Lindenmeier and the team at Beacon for Today, and I can confidently say their expertise is unmatched. Having run my own non-profit for 20 years and launched a second one six years ago, I thought I knew everything about 501(c)(3)s and running a successful organization. But what I’ve learned from Beacon for Today is beyond words.
A few months ago, I was hired to assist an executive director and be program director for a brand-new non-profit. When the owner mentioned bringing in a consulting firm, I was skeptical—after all, wasn’t I hired for my expertise? But from the moment I met Vince and Ricky, I knew they had a depth of knowledge that far exceeded my own.
Over the past six months, their mentorship, guidance, and follow-through have been nothing short of incredible. They helped us navigate challenges we hadn’t even considered, ensuring every step was executed with precision. If you’re thinking about starting a non-profit or looking to strengthen an existing one, I wholeheartedly recommend Beacon for Today. Their services are an investment you won’t regret." - K.S.
