"Financials tell you a lot, but this program tells me much more about where our opportunities are. What happens with culture ultimately makes its way into the financials anyway. I use the platform in every company we invest in. It’s like having a dashboard on your car telling you exactly how you can improve. I love it."
"Right Workplace helped us identify areas of opportunity across our network of dealerships.
