CRG Story

The birth of CRG began in 1979, when the founder, Dr. Terry Anderson was frustrated with the personality assessments MBTI and DiSC–which he was using with his university students and clients. He discovered serious design and outcome flaws–and was so concerned about the well-being of his students that he quit using them. On a dare by his colleagues, he was challenged to create a solution that addressed the concerns he had with other assessments–this birthed CRG’s first assessment the Personal Style Indicator (PSI). His multi-theory, self-scored, learner-friendly approach was so powerful that CRG has a 35-year track record of over 80% of professionals switching to CRG assessments once they experience the CRG difference and attend our certification training.

Demand grew and organizations requested additional solutions–so over the past four decades CRG authors have written several million words of content and created an entire assessment and learning system based on CRG’s Proprietary Holistic Development Model and CRG’s Transforming Leadership Model. We now serve over 30 countries in 12 languages.

CRG assessments (both print and online) and training resources are used in every conceivable application as it relates to human capital development; education, career development, business, talent management, HR, sales, customer service, leadership, learning and instructional style, entrepreneurship, succession planning, mentoring, coaching, team-building, student success, performance improvement, health and wellness, self-worth, values, personal, and organizational purpose!

In 2002, CRG’s 13 shareholders sold the company and the intellectual property of all the assessments and content to Dr. Ken Keis who has been connected to CRG since 1990.

Our clients vary from Fortune 2000 companies, governments, finance, automotive, agriculture, retail, career centers, not-for-profits, entrepreneurs, education, religious, and individuals.
