    Leading and Coaching Client Engagement and Technology Industry Professionals to Serve Others in Co-Creation of Excellence
    Over the decades spent leading teams involved in complex client engagements and serving them both technically and commercially, Mitch developed a client engagement process centered around serving others to help THEM achieve THEIR objectives, it is called CUSP.

    CUSP, a human engagement process, unlike typical “sales processes” is centered around serving others to co create value that aids THEM in achieving what THEY wish to achieve, in service to the people that THEY serve.

    CUSP is the following mindset….

    CARE greatly,
    UNDERSTAND deeply,
    SERVE endlessly, with
    PURPOSE

    In support of the globalization of the CUSP concepts, Mitch, now retired from MCHP, has gone on to form the CUSP ADVISORY GROUP. The CUSP ADVISORY GROUP stands ready to serve others that wish to achieve excellence in co-creating client value, excellence in co-creating leadership, and excellence in outcomes that matter!
