Chuck Quakenbush Joins Advantage Performance Group Network of Entrepreneurs

New APG Affiliate Brings Change Management and Coaching Expertise to Human Performance Consulting Network

INDIANAPOLIS, IN, JUNE 2, 2004 — Advantage Performance Group (APG), one of the world’s largest human performance consulting networks, today announced the addition of Chuck Quakenbush to their roster of high-talent affiliates. With expertise in change management and sales coaching, Quakenbush’s Indianapolis-based franchise will serve organizations seeking results-driven training solutions in the Indianapolis, Milwaukee and Chicago regions.

All 29 APG franchise owners, including Quakenbush, share a passion for excellence in human performance consulting. The APG philosophy is to find the best training for a specific organization’s situation, customize it, and apply a unique methodology to track and achieve outcomes that can be linked to business results. APG affiliates can leverage a cumulative 400 years’ experience in human performance consulting by co-owners and over 17 alliances with premier suppliers throughout the country. Quakenbush’s franchise will be the first in Indianapolis and the second APG affiliate for the Indiana region.

“APG has the team, the suppliers, and the methodology to provide high-ROI human performance consulting, not just positive feedback, for every client organization with whom they work,” said Chuck Quakenbush. “The APG culture is filled with an excitement and a passion for building the best solutions, with the best content, that deliver desired business results and I’m thrilled to be a part of it.”

Most recently, Quakenbush was responsible for business development of human resources services for Indiana-based major accounts at Drake Beam Morin, Inc. (DBM), a leading global outplacement firm. With over 23 years’ experience in sales and learning solutions consulting, he brings specific expertise in the life sciences industry to the APG network of entrepreneurs.

“Chuck is a terrific addition to our network,” said Glenn Jackson, president of APG. “His high energy, talent, and focus will lead to enormous success when leveraged with APG’s methodology and resources.”

A native of Richmond, Indiana, and a graduate of Purdue University, Quakenbush built his career in human resources at learning solutions provider AchieveGlobal in Chicago, and earned an MBA from Lake Forest Graduate School of Management. With flourishing industries, such as life sciences, growing rapidly in Indiana, Quakenbush returned to take advantage of a great opportunity to apply his knowledge and expertise of human performance consulting, particularly for sales and management teams, to organizations throughout the state. “I received a lot from Indiana, and now it is time to give something back,” continued Quakenbush.
