He has taken Human Capital and Talent Management strategies from concept to execution – and has honed his skills in both developing and implementing these strategies.

In addition, he has held several senior HR and business roles including Head of Talent Management for Lehman Brothers’ Investment Management Division and Head of Learning and Development for AllianceBernstein Investments.

Josh began his career with World Wide Facilities (an AIG Managing Agency), where he led a sales and underwriting team as a Regional Account Executive. It was during this experience that Josh developed a passion for Organization Effectiveness. He continued working during graduate school before transitioning to HR consulting.

Josh’s focus has been on addressing small- through large-scale human capital transformation issues, including recruiting, on-boarding, performance management, retention, workforce analytics, competencies, learning and development, leadership development, and succession planning. Josh has designed and managed both campus and experienced hire recruiting programs. He has played leadership roles on multiple global HR outsourcing and transformation initiatives, HR process re-engineering efforts, and HR system implementations.

Josh has his M.A. in Organizational Psychology from Columbia University where he concentrated in Organizational Change, and his B.A. in Legal Studies and Psychology from the University of Massachusetts Amherst.
