KNOW WHAT IS HAPPENING IN YOUR COMPANY BEFORE THE COMPETITION KNOWS.
“Almost all employees believe their bosses do not want to hear the truth.”
Margaret Heffernan, Willful Blindness
Reality is Hidden
The information you need to identify risk and opportunity exists already within your company…and we guarantee you you’re getting no more than half of it.
Often, though, this does not come to light until it is too late and the people who hold critical information often have reasons for not wanting to share it.
Pyxis partners with you and your team to expand your abilities to obtain accurate, timely intelligence and to analyze and apply that information in transformative ways through our Synched Communication Methodology trainings. The techniques we have refined through thousands of intelligence interviews in high-stakes settings will allow you to identify risk before someone else does — and before it explodes into public view. Equally, these skills also allow you to uncover hidden opportunities on which you can capitalize before they walk out the door.
Corporations around the globe are consistently hit by problems that erase huge amounts of monetary and brand value. To name only a few, consider how VW, Wells Fargo, Uber, Fox News, Samsung, and BP unnecessarily lost tens of billions by not uncovering and addressing problems prior to very public disasters. You want your company to be in the news because of your success, not for unforeseen negative situations. And the aforementioned situations were not unforeseeable; simply, no one asked for the information in the right way.
“You don't hear things that are bad about your company unless you ask. It is easy to hear good tidings, but you have to scratch to get the bad news.” — Thomas J. Watson
The intelligence you need to avoid potentially catastrophic risk exists within your organization but you likely are not getting it all. Consider Blockbuster, where every employee in every store knew Blockbuster was not a loved brand and knew customer preferences were changing, but Blockbuster executive management completely missed this information until it was too late.
Especially unsettling is that disasters occur despite the fact that corporations spend millions of dollars each year on risk management. This gap between the perceived and actual situation exists equally amongst companies that have good intent as within those where some part of the corporation is attempting to hide wrong-doing.
All this clearly demonstrates that something is missing… and this is why we at Pyxis are here to fill that gap.

We know that the survival and well-being of a corporation often hinges on completely accurate risk analysis and preventive action.
Our team consists of the leading experts in uncovering hidden facts, problems, and missed opportunities—knowledge of which is crucial for a company’s long-term success. We accomplish this through unique, scientifically-proven communications methods that have the capacity to uncover intelligence that is missed by standard methods. Our methods differ considerably from the practices used by internal security operations and other consulting firms on risk mitigation issues.
Our purpose is to provide expertise that can allow companies to gain the intelligence they need for continued success.
We provide real analysis and intelligence to identify and to prevent both known and unknown problems.
We help companies avoid misleading input and wasted resources by moving more rapidly to a problem’s root cause.
We break-through clutter and subterfuge that often clouds crucial issues, even amongst individuals who most want to keep information from you.
At Pyxis Academy, we not only identify and mitigate risk, we identify opportunity and build with you the internal capacity to continue this process moving forward.
Our team will train key members of your team to implement and sustain an information gathering process through our intelligence interviewing protocol. We apply our vast knowledge of cognitive science and the intelligence interviewing process to transform the way corporations understand and implement portions of their business analysis. Through our process, clients gain a revolutionary method of organizing facts and information to better uncover probable risks and opportunities.
The implementation of our intelligence gathering techniques provide access to information that has not been heretofore available. The execution of the process can give a corporation a quantum leap beyond using standard quantitative analysis or traditional cosmetic qualitative information gathering processes.
