The Co-Founders Focused on Your Success
John Christensen
Ph.D. Co-Founder
I initially fell in love with research in a chemistry lab. As the first in my family to go to college, I started studying human behavior while earning my undergraduate degree. I’ve since obtained my Ph.D. in social psychology.
I am currently an associate professor of communications for a higher education institution, and I am empowered by watching others advance, grow, and achieve success.
How can I help you accomplish your to-do lists with data analytics?

Our Company Pillars
Core Company Values
Education
As innately curious lifelong learners, the co-founders of Yellowbrick appreciate academic standards and principles. As a result, Yellowbrick employs sound data analytics and applies the science behind the survey to recommend advanced solutions for your success.
Empathy
Yellowbrick isn’t just a data analytics company; at our core, we build belonging. We know that people (and productivity) thrive in environments that foster consideration, encouragement, and kindness. Through our strategic assessments and advice, Yellowbrick strives to create safe, inclusive spaces where everyone feels seen, appreciated, and inspired to realize their full potential.
Empowerment
When people have the authority to be authentic, confident in their communities, and validated in their voices being heard, hope is heightened, self-respect, reliance, and responsibility hold steady, and the road to success can be seen right around the corner.
Equity
Yellowbrick acknowledges that people come from unique paths in life and that every road does not start from the same place. In the immense interest in correcting the disproportionate imbalances, Yellowbrick intentionally positions ethical, fair, and impartial best practices at the forefront of everything we do.
