Respectful Curiosity. Focused Listening.
We love to hear a good story
Listening to exceptional performers tell us about their success is fascinating. We also know that anyone can struggle to explain how they succeed. Our structured and respectful process provides a framework that encourages sharing.
We use the tale of Stone Soup as a metaphor for how powerful our process can be. Our name and our logo are inspired by the story. Click here to read it in a new tab.
We love to tell a good story, too
Beyond listening, our passion is to educate leadership about their key employees. Our clients respect their team members, yet are surprised at the depth and breadth of information we are able to collect. And we’re serious about storytelling – our products go beyond the written word, integrating video, audio, and face-to-face interactions.
