Hughes, Bryan C.: - As an author and speaker, Dr. Bryan C. Hughes provides thought leadership and research insights around culture recovery, toxic leadership, ethical leadership, organizational integrity, and associate retention. His extensive success in building and scaling impactful organizations is matched by his expertise in driving clear communication on strategy and operations, and human capital development. Bryan has a proven track record of leading high-performance teams, strengthening company culture, and fostering enhanced financial performance, YOY revenue growth, and net profit increases. He now works directly with organizations to support sustainable growth and performance through increasing leadership capacity, and on-purpose execution.Bryan has nearly three decades of practical experience, with two decades in executive leadership roles. He has seen every business model and worked in several capacities, including consulting and advising organizations in every North American time zone. Through his experience, Bryan has seen the pervasive toxicity that many companies struggle to remove, and has made it his goal to help them tackle and solve this problem. Through the academic research and practical application, he found that operational tweaks could result in minor improvements but rarely led to sustainable growth or significant change. The main blocker of operational excellence was often deeper, embedded in leadership styles and organizational culture. The result of his doctoral research created a research-backed and peer-reviewed framework-the Culture Recovery Framework outlined in this book-to heal pervasive toxicity in organizations and ultimately increase associate retention. For the past several years, Bryan has tested this framework in companies across America, successfully helping his clients heal their culture and remove toxicity.If you would like to work with Bryan to help your organization solve for associate retention and create an ethical culture, you can contact him at bryan@cleardaystrategies.com.
