We Develop Leaders on Day One.
At BrightPath Consulting, we believe in creating leaders on the first day of onboarding–and helping them grow into their best selves throughout their careers.
That’s why we provide services focused on maximizing your company’s Operational Onboarding and Leadership Development.
We use Gallup’s CliftonStrengths for all of our offerings, an assessment and development tool that helps people identify what they naturally do best and how they can best work with others. (P.S., we offer specific CliftonStrengths coaching as well.).
In addition to our human resource-focused services, BrightPath is also a process improver. Our leader’s years of experience in project management, engineering, and quality management make us uniquely qualified to help solve your company’s complex problems. Or, we will help you find a better way to tackle a process more efficiently. That’s why we offer custom Process Optimization packages catered to the needs of your specific industry.
What makes us different?
We entered the professional consulting industry knowing the field was saturated.
Here is how we stand on our own two legs: We started in the data-driven engineering world where we learned the science behind project management. But, all along the way, we paired the art of humanity in the process, recognizing that human resources efforts needed to use both heart and science to develop future leaders.
The result is a data-forward approach (using CliftonStrengths as our benchmark), the application of our proprietary SIT (Self, Individual, Team) Framework, and a unique focus on the power of onboarding.
Our mission is to cultivate management and leadership skills, ensuring all team members perform optimally while creating an environment that allows everyone to succeed.
Our Founder: A Global Perspective
We were founded by Jakob Schweiger, a German-born leader who devoted his education to industrial engineering–which led to project management internships within the field. (You can read more about Jakob’s journey to Greenville here.)
Jakob’s career has held a common theme of complex problem-solving, process improvement, project management, and people management. He uniquely understands how teams are integral to a company’s overall operation–and how to build them up to perform at their highest level.
Jakob is a Gallup-Certified Strengths Coach and uses the talent assessment tool to help clients discover their unique talents–to build on their potential and achieve personal and professional success. (Learn more about why we chose CliftonStrengths as our assessment tool).
Our Services
We believe retention, engagement, and sustainable growth never happen by accident. Any company lives and dies by its ability to develop leadership, proactively communicate, and an inherent dedication to people over processes. Great processes can optimize operations, but only engaged employees can transform challenges into opportunities.
All our services are centered around developing self-aware leaders who recognize their unique opportunity to make a lasting impact on others.
Operational Onboarding
Welcome your new employees into the culture of your organization on day one. New hires decide within the first two weeks if it is the right fit for them.
Set the foundation for employee engagement and productivity right from the start.
Leadership Development
Perhaps one of the largest buzzwords in business-speak, we believe Leadership Development is so much more than team-building exercises.
Our leadership coaching teaches first-time (and long-time) leaders how to identify team needs and talents within their team and develop them into strengths.
CliftonStrengths Coaching
Instead of utilizing a rubric that highlights weaknesses or growth opportunities, we use a tool that focuses on investing time and effort in areas where we are naturally gifted.
We offer 1:1 and group coaching services to discover talents and leverage opportunities for excellence for you and your team.
Process Optimization
We take a people-centric approach to your organization’s processes, uncovering ways to streamline efforts, improve efficiencies, and automate painful processes.
This is the dirty work we love to get our hands on to make an impact on your company.
Let’s work together.
