Visionary leaders deserve to be supported by a high-performance team
The average cost of a bad hire is 10x the annual salary of the position, not to mention the countless hours spent training that person, and the negative impact on your company culture and your own work-life balance.
And while it may not show up in your P&L directly, we know for sure that the loss of productivity from not having the right people in the right role is costing you time, energy and money.
That’s why we believe in a sophisticated behavioral analytics program that helps to organize and structure a seamless process for hiring well, engineering teams, and preparing for growth.
They say one bad apple lowers team performance by 40%
CEOs & Business Owners who work with us are able to get back to focusing on what they love: their business.

His professional experience spans different industries and both public and privately-held corporations, including the President and CEO role at MAGENTA LLC, and senior level roles The Intec Group, MPC, Continental, Federal Mogul, and Motorola.
Bryan’s approach to business is that, regardless of the industry, technology, product or service an organization is engaged in, we are all ultimately in the “People Business”. People are an organization’s #1 Asset and, typically, #1 Cost. Thus, it’s critical for all organizations to “fit” the right people into the right roles.

“Thankfully THE BOARD OF ADVISORS, introduced us to Applied Behavioral Analytics. The data obtained through its use has allowed us to greatly improve our ability to identify “role fits” and assess the engagement and productivity of our team members, resulting in more money to our bottom line.
We’ve been able to optimize our hiring process. Behavioral analytics provides the information we need to be able to make hiring decisions objectively, not anecdotally. Bottom line – we’re no longer hiring the wrong people for the job.
Working with Bryan has saved us a tremendous amount of money. Using the program to evaluate an underperforming agency, we were able to pinpoint, with data, four individuals who did not “fit” their roles. Between direct costs and lost business, those hiring mistakes cost us more than $450,000 last year. Our investment in Bryan ensures that we’ll never lose that kind of money again.”
