About Us

We’re here to make the world better by helping people understand each other and how brains work.

We help leaders tackle people-related problems by using science and data in practical ways that boost performance.

We solve workplace challenges by blending Human Factors research with smart business and economic thinking. Our goal is to improve how people work together and show that doing the right thing is also good for business and the planet.
