Why FlashPoint? “At the heart of how I live my life and lead my business is my belief in the power of the potential within each and every human. Starting FlashPoint was an outpouring of my personal mission to cause, drive, foster, and release human potential. At FlashPoint, we believe in more meaning at work and every day we build deep long-term partnerships with our clients to make that a reality. Our clients’ challenges are our challenges. We listen—really listen—to co-create the best course of action that’s uniquely designed to get desired results.”
