LifeThrive, a developmental organization providing employee lifecycle consultation, will conduct a class in January and also become a contributor to Builder News.
LifeThrive CEO Dr. Chuck Coker excels in helping companies maximize individual employee and team potential, resulting in satisfied and more productive employees, equating to a healthier bottom line for your business.
Coker said too often, businesses focus on investing in visible costs, such as advertising or technology upgrades, when attempting to grow their business. Rather than taking this risky route, Coker’s research and experience have proven that growing a business can be achieved when the focus is on people.
It’s estimated the cost of employee turnover is about 150 percent of an employee’s annual compensation figure. For managerial and sales positions, this figure can easily stretch to 250 percent.
The course in January and Coker’s column in Builder News will help members capture that loss and put it back on the revenue side, regardless of how large that figure is for a particular business and its circumstances.
The unique LifeThrive process was designed to transform scientific and psychonomic information into a simplified format that is easy to learn and easy to apply, regardless of the industry or business sector, its age, its operating structure or culture.

He was one of the founding authorities of The Balfour Motivational Research Institute, which concentrated on identifying and codifying the key human factor contributors to motivation and success. This was accomplished in multinational and large organizations as well as hundreds of medium and small companies.
Coker has worked both in-house and as a consultant with companies who needed help with their executives’ development, strategic planning, interactional leadership and management issues, mergers and acquisitions. as well as organizational growth and development.
