About Us

Since its founding in 1996, DecisionWise has evolved from a small consulting firm into a modern Employee Experience SaaS company that offers technology solutions, consulting, thought leadership, and project management services.

Our History

At DecisionWise, we are passionate about helping companies and organizations succeed in three key areas: leadership, employee experience/culture, and employee engagement. We believe that technology is a crucial part of achieving these goals, and we’ve come a long way since our early days using PC diskettes.

We started as a small group of dedicated individuals. Back then, everyone did a little bit of everything, from running surveys to providing technical support. But today, we have a team of experts in software development, industrial psychology, sales, project management, and more.

When you work with us, you’ll benefit from decades of experience and millions of survey responses. We use leading benchmark and normative data sets to help you create winning employee experiences and awesome corporate cultures. We’re excited to partner with you on your journey toward better leadership, engagement, and success.

Leadership

Our CEO, Dr. Tracy M. Maylett, has led the way in shaping our trajectory. As a business executive and industrial-organizational psychologist, Dr. Maylett is a leading HR thought leader with a wealth of experience. He’s authored numerous articles, book chapters, academic papers, and business books, and has taught thousands of students at the university level.

Dr. Maylett is supported by an exceptional leadership team, including Matthew Wride as President, Christian Nielson as Chief Revenue Officer, Micah Wardell as Chief Product Officer, David Long as Chief Operating Officer, and Charles Rogel as Chief Consulting Officer.

But, the truest expression of our leadership comes from the incredible work our employees do on a daily basis. Our team members are not only talented and engaged, but they also embody our corporate values. They are the secret to our success, and we’re proud to have them on our team. With their help, we’re excited to continue pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in organizational leadership, employee experience, and engagement.
