Flip and his team use behavioral analytics and executive coaching to help teams eliminate counterproductive behaviors, hit goals, and earn bonuses. The Flippen Group serves elite military special forces, numerous Fortune 500 companies, the Dallas Cowboys Head Coach Jason Garrett, and more than half the NFL starting quarterbacks, including Tom Brady and Matt Ryan. Many of the world’s most respected private equity firms turn to the Flippen Group for help evaluating management teams before they invest and then optimizing them to deliver results ahead of plan.

“Identifying talent and cultural alignment are essential to success. In the same way, sorting out in advance those who will become either cultural misfits or ethical problems has been equally significant. The Flippen Group has allowed us to do both well. They have been one of our strongest competitive advantages. After discovering how powerful the Flippen Group models were in improving my own effectiveness and eliminating counterproductive behavior throughout our entire organization, I now believe that our key investment relationships should consider doing the same.”
