A Brief History

Our history dates back to our founding in 2005 by CEO Bob Briggs, but our experience goes beyond; PeopleWorks’ team averages 20 years as practitioners/senior leaders. From our experience, we found the best way to find the cracks in your company’s foundation and we created tools to assist in that diagnosis.

PeopleWorks has noticed that, regardless of the task or industry, leaders and managers face the same challenges. Having worked with companies like Toyota, Coca-Cola, and EOG Resources, PeopleWorks is able to take proven tactics from each industry and apply it to the others. Following the old adage, PeopleWorks sees the forest for the trees, and we can pinpoint the weak trees and the strong ones, providing a fruitful result.
