  Creatrix® builds the innovative talent of a company/organization. At Creatrix we engage leaders and teams to understand what being innovative means and how to do it! We have a basic assumption that innovators and people who strive to be innovators are essential for continued business growth and success—especially in these difficult times. Our goals: Find the talent that can think creatively, take risks and innovate. Develop the capacity of individual people and leaders across organizations to innovate. Build and nurture innovative teams--teams that can respond to change faster and create and leverage ideas quicker. Work with leaders so they can lead innovatively and recognize and foster innovative talent in others. Develop organizational strategies that are innovative—not business as usual. Recommendation: Dr. Byrd presented “Creating a Culture of Innovation” at the 2013 MnDOT – ACEC/MN Annual Conference.

  Vistage

  Jan 2014 - Nov 2018

  Vistage is a peer-advisory organization supporting CEOs, executives and business owners who want their businesses to grow. The core values of Vistage--caring, challenge, trust and growth say it all. As a Vistage Chair, I help CEOs and executives understand and challenge their worldviews to create growth and success. I like the Vistage message--It is all about the group. It is the group of CEOs that make each group what it is. Imagine having 10-15 other CEOs helping you think about your challenges, supporting you as you grow? It is a remarkable journey together to achieve results like you've never had."Dedicated to increasing the effectiveness and enhancing the lives of Chief Executives" --Vistage Mission Statement Show less
