Human Capital Management Testimonials

“Decision Associates, and in particular Don Moore and Jim Ryan, has helped channel Accudyn’s energy into what are the best strengths of our company, and has kept us focused on the task at hand. They are helping us to be the best at what we say we are going to be.”
Peg Bly, President
Accudyn Products, Inc.

“Joe Gausman shares my vision of how an organization should run. He sees human resources as I do – empowering employees and giving them the support they need to succeed.”
Jim Fetzner, Vice President
Comfort Care & Resources

“The biggest thing Decision Associates got us to understand was that as a fast-growth company, we needed different people and systems than we had when we were growing at a steady 10-15% a year. When you grow 30-50% a year, you’ve got to be ahead of the curve.”
Richard King, President
Cost Effective Coatings

“The team at Decision Associates has great experience from a wide variety of industries that can be leveraged to help your business get through a particular challenge or project. We lost an employee and Decision Associates was able to provide us with a person that worked well with our team and was very outcome focused. There was no feeling that we were paying too much for what work we received.”
Matt Wilson, President
Deist Industries/Bucks Fabrication

“Decision Associates offers a level of HR/Recruitment expertise that does not exist in every organization. They are able to fill a critical void in a very important aspect of every organization – HR/Employee recruitment. Furthermore, they bring a professional and unbiased approach to the process that allows you to meet your timeline.”
John Dill, Board of Directors
Economic Development Corporation of Erie County

“Decision Associates worked with Hynes Industries on a major organizational development effort and, later, on a senior executive search. In both cases, the consultants effectively and efficiently guided us through the projects, without taking over the thought process. We agreed to a set of outcomes before we began, and got exactly what we wanted. We would highly recommend this group.”
William J. Bresnahan, Lead Director
Hynes Industries, Inc.

Peer Groups Testimonials

“The team at Decision Associates has the network to pull together a diverse group of business leaders that are at similar stages in their careers. By bringing these individuals together we were able to learn from each other’s experiences and challenge each other to perform from meeting to meeting. Don Moore facilitated our meetings and encouraged thoughtful discussions using live case histories, guest speakers and book reviews. By participating in the Decision Associates’ LIRT peer group, not only did I benefit from the valuable learning process, but I also gained a group of business contacts and friendships that will last over time.”
Matt Wilson, President
Deist Industries/Bucks Fabrication

“I find the Decision Associates Peer Group sessions very informative. I appreciate the opportunity to meet with individuals who face some of the same challenges that I face as a young executive.”
Jasen Diley, CEO
Rouse

“The Decision Associates Peer Group provides me with necessary exposure to a variety of valuable information that I would not be privy to otherwise. With a handpicked group of professionals contributing the results of their collective business experiences, I feel comfortable knowing that the people were chosen for a reason and are willing to share their lessons; they are in the group because they are knowledgeable, trustworthy and are in a position to give an outside perspective that is both valuable and based on the real world. When someone has to leave the group due to other business commitments or retires from the group, the rest feel badly because we know we will miss their perspective, insights, questions and experiences. I am getting much, much more from this group than I ever imagined and highly recommend a Decision Associates peer group to everyone.”
John Weber, Vice President of Operations
Smith Provision

“The peer group has proven to be an invaluable experience for me. Prior to joining Team Hardinger, I spent ten years with a national transportation and logistics company. The challenges that I faced as a manager in a large organization are drastically different than the challenges in a small business. The peer group facilitated by Decision Associates has helped me focus our sales efforts and enhance the company’s strategic plan.”
Harold (H) Bender, General Manager
Team Hardinger
