Our Founding
Our company was founded by Chris Heinz in 2016. At the time, Chris was Chief People Officer for EnergyCAP of State College, PA. Based on the success of his strengths-based engagement program, other organizations began requesting his help.

Today Chris and his family live in Charlottesville, VA, where he is a trainer, certified coach, and consultant. He's known as an expert in CliftonStrengths (formerly called StrengthsFinder), which is a talent assessment by the Gallup Organization.

How We Can Help:
Strengths
Employees who use their strengths at work are more productive, motivated, and positive. CliftonStrengths® is a best-in-class assessment created by Gallup® to identify top areas of talent.
Engagement
Engagement is being committed to, dedicated to, and emotionally connected to your work and workplace so you give your best effort. Engagement doesn't happen by chance.

Refresh Network is our learning community for staying fresh and connected in CliftonStrengths® and employee engagement. We provide training calls, resources, support, and special events.
