Seattle's data-driven culture means leaders expect evidence-based frameworks, not motivational platitudes. Harry Lakin helps organizations in the Pacific Northwest make better people decisions through behavioral science, emotional intelligence, and evidence-based hiring.
How Harry works with Seattle organizations
Keynote speaking
Engaging keynotes on emotional intelligence in the age of AI and multi-generational communication, for organizations that host events at the Washington State Convention Center, Hyatt Regency Seattle, and Sheraton Grand Seattle and corporate events throughout the Pacific Northwest.
The Decision Room
A structured advisory process for Seattle executives navigating high-stakes hiring, team restructuring, or leadership transitions in technology, aerospace, retail, and maritime industries organizations.
Behavioral assessments
Science-backed assessments that help Seattle hiring teams stop selecting who interviews best and start identifying who will actually perform.
The problem
Most Seattle organizations are making their most consequential decisions on instinct
In the Pacific Northwest's technology, aerospace, retail, and maritime industries sectors, the pressure to fill roles fast pushes organizations toward hiring decisions based on interview performance rather than behavioral evidence. The result is predictable: wrong hires, disengaged teams, and leadership gaps that cost real money to fix.

Why Seattle organizations bring Harry in

Whether the engagement is a keynote at the Washington State Convention Center, Hyatt Regency Seattle, and Sheraton Grand Seattle, a half-day workshop for a leadership team, or a Decision Room advisory process for a C-suite hire, the work is the same: bring rigor to the decisions that matter most.
