Mission
We are committed to World Class Excellence where we compare favorably to any other Firm by the judgment of our stakeholders. By continually reducing consultant dependency
we seek to exceed client expectations and to increase our strategic partnership.
The
Performance Resources Consulting, LLC Difference
Everybody,
consulting firms included, claim they are different because they provide better
quality, the best price, special approaches, responsiveness, great credentials,
and a focus on the client. DUH, everybody does this stuff, that's NOT
DIFFERENT! When we see mission statements that ooz this stuff we puke
because, who WOULDN'T say they focus on "customer service, excellence, value,
quality, and approaches that meet the needs of the market?" That doesn't
provide your client with an advantage, it's not different, it's the SAME as
every company out there!
Where we strive for real difference:
|
Unique Qualification: |
Ted is the only
six sigma blackbelt, PHR, and ROI combined certified consultant in the
WORLD! |
|
Practical: |
Most consultant's
offer only theoretical knowlege. They could not, and have not, ever actually had
to LEAD or implement difficult decisions in a business. Most could not
handle the jobs of the people they supposedly are trying to train! Ted has
owned multiple businesses and has worked at every level from line production to
executive. |
|
Simple: |
No magic,
straightforward solutions designed to be put in the hands of the client...not
ongoing consulting dependent magic. |
|
Brutal Honest: |
Ask any client,
they consistently rate us the most candid and direct of any advisor they've ever
had. We do it in Love, but it's often not easy. :-)
|
|
Innovative: |
We have developed
products for our clients that have never been developed. Our solutions are
customized, we are not a firm primarily offering off-the-shelf theory and
concept. |
|
Leadership: |
Combined with
innovation, we consistently lead both industry thought and market approach as
well as serve in leadership capacities. |
|
Guaranteed: |
We offer every client to change our invoice
to what they feel is right if we fail to deliver the agreed upon
deliverable. In 1000's of engagements we've had one client write
$500 off on bill! |
