Professional Information

In his professional career, Mr. Olivo has over 25 years of experience in identifying, measuring and comparing the "“commonalities”" of highly successful athletes, business leaders, and organizations. Tom has worked in a multitude of industries with thousands of senior executives and managers, emphasizing the importance of Business Analytics and Getting the Right People in the Right Roles. Success Profiles has measured the business practices of over 1,000 organizations and developed a database of performance criteria that includes over 30,000 individual business units.

Tom’s work with Olympic athletes, coaches and successful business leaders led to the development of several unique diagnostic instruments that measure performance. The Success Profiles methodology combined with a measurement framework and supporting research data prove that consistent success in business today rarely occurs by accident. In fact, there are specific predictors, hard-wired behaviors and "evidence-based business practices" that contribute to high performance among people and organizations. These characteristics can be identified, measured, and compared over time as performance benchmarks to improve business results.
