Surfacing wisdom together, riding the waves of success

Our story

Great things can often come from a good question. Maynard Group was launched when our first client said, “Can you help us with a tricky people issue?” Since then, we’ve never looked back.

Fundamentally, we believe that healthy, sustainable, impactful, organizations are those where teams have the capacity, knowledge, tools, and passion to achieve their vision. We chose the sea turtle as our guiding mascot. In the open ocean, sea turtles encounter strong currents; they have limited visibility, and often there are no visible landmarks to guide them to their destination. Yet like our clients, sea turtles make remarkable journeys.

Our team of consultants have a broad range of skills in human resources, organizational development, learning, and conflict resolution. Whether it’s designing an HR strategy, coaching a leader, recruiting a new team member, facilitating a conversation, resolving a conflict, or just dotting the I’s and crossing the T’s—we’re here to help.
