professional profile
Ralph has been "putting psychology to work" for more years than he wants to admit. Clients come back because he's not really a bad guy...for a shrink. They have ranged all the way from family owned businesses to the Fortune 500.

He started his consulting business after being a road warrior for too long. He originally escaped from human resources, took a wrong turn into the academic world, and ended up in consulting after he rejected one firm.

They offered him a job.

He gets a kick from meeting interesting, talented people and learning about new businesses. Together, they figure out how to accomplish even more. A key success ingredient is heading wherever their inner sense of direction leads. Enter the business name "True North."

Ralph's expertise is hiring and promotion talent assessment (shrinking heads?), job and career coaching, although he doesn't do pets, and getting more horsepower out of organizations. He's rarely met a client he doesn't enjoy or a situation that's too boring for words. He figures that as long as people are people, he'll have work to do. And no two client stories are ever the same.

His clients say he's thoughtful, has a good sense of humor, and appreciates life's twists and turns.

areas of expertise
Ralph's core business expertise includes executive coaching, individual assessment, organizational effectiveness diagnosis, custom training and talent process design.

on the personal side
In his personal time, Ralph enjoys auto racing when they'll let him on the track, movies, time in the north woods and having fun with his grandchildren. His wife thinks he's at their level, anyway.

in the community
Ralph's community involvement includes volunteers time with the Career Management Group, the Detroit HR association's forum for job-seekers and job changers.
