Welcome to Ruhmann Associates, LLC

In his landmark book, Good to Great, Jim Collins conducted a 20-year research study on what made the difference between a good company and a great one. He found that identifying the competencies and personality factors necessary for the successful completion of any job is the first step in ensuring you get the right person for the job. However, not every company can start from scratch.

Testimonials

QBQ has helped me set the framework for my staff prior to tackling a problem or discussing issues. Rather than approaching an issue as a victim they now can address it feeling empowered and assuming some ownership.  Recently, at a Patient Care Associate retreat, we were planning to do a segment on “What frustrates you or what gets in the way of you doing a good job”.

Thanks Joy for a great session!
