Innovators of Talent To Value.

“The change point for us was that we went through a pivotal moment where we needed a rebuild. We were in a moment of radical transformation when we reached out to FulcrumQ. ”

“What was useful for me was the timing of it was perfect. We were in a big pivot point and restructuring point. ”

“Their superpower is amazing people with a lot of experience and business acumen that can debate the CEO about where their value hotspots are. ”

“ They’re critical partners at moments of inflection. They will challenge our assumptions; they never just tell us what we want to hear. ”

“ They help us make real, tangible change much quicker because they carry the strategy all the way through to mobilization. They don’t stop at the value, work and roles. They answer “what do we do about it”. ”

“ They synthesize the core strategies that drive value and then find the exact JTBD and people in the Organization that can make them happen ”

“ We found that what FulcrumQ does is pretty unique; applying tools in an HR context (at a very high level in the C-Suite) through leveraging human capital to drive value creation and accomplish strategic goals. ”

“ They have the ability to smell where the problems are and they have credibility (the people that they bring to the table speak with great authority and great insight), but they do it in a way that creates trust. ”

“ CEO Works doesn’t provide the answers, they walk you through a process of reflection. CEO Works is more like therapy than consulting. It’s implicit that you as a business leader understands your business and can collaborate with them throughout. ”

“ They can sit in a room of very senior leaders, without being awestruck or nervous, and they can have conversations at that level. They can say to the CEO: ‘this is what you're trying to accomplish, do you have the right people to do this?’. They can work in the board room. This is where they live. Very few firms can do that. ”

“ Ultimately, they find the leverage points that will get your strategy moving. The metaphor which sticks is “You have a bear that won’t move, you have to poke it in different places to find the right way to make it move.” ”

“ Their work is highly collaborative. Even if we present them with a pivot, they come back and tell us what the pivot really is and what we need to do about it. Every time we thought the pivot was this, they helped us realize it was that. ”

“ Today, the headwinds are much bigger, the challenges are much harder, and there are more existential questions. Business models are being totally wiped out. Most organizations are asking ‘Am I aligned?’ And ‘How can I be?’ ”

“ They are great provokers. ”

“ They’re less about ‘you have a problem, let’s solve it’. They are about ‘you’re currently looking for or trying to create value in the wrong places'. It’s about reinventing. ”

“ FulcrumQ acts as catalysts, shaking up the company and catalyzing the action within the organization. ”

“ Whether for a business, leader, or team, they deeply understand the pivot. And move with pace. And leave you better than when they arrived. They are pivot maximizers. ”
