Brian Norman established our company in April 2012 with a vision of assisting organizations to optimize the use of their most precious treasure -- their people. At that time, Brian had just retired from just over 28 years of federal service, culminating in key assignments that included commanding the Air Force Manpower Agency (AFMA), guiding the way as Deputy Director, Plans and Integration for the entire Air Force Manpower and Personnel enterprise, and leadership as the Chief of Manpower Requirements for the Service. With an unusual depth of knowledge and diversity of experience in all aspects of manpower and organization, business process improvement, management engineering, workforce requirements determination, organizational analysis, competitive sourcing, modeling and analysis, and resource planning, programming, and budgeting, Brian has a proven reputation and track record as a premier expert in advising leaders and providing the best solutions to the most difficult strategic human capital challenges.
As CEO and founder of Compass Manpower Experts, Brian has traveled the world coaching, mentoring and providing focused and powerful executive leadership assistance and strategic workforce planning solutions. The company has delivered services to a spectrum of customers -- from local entrepreneurs and small businesses, to mid-sized and large federal contractors, to large federal agencies, national think-tanks and committees, the Pentagon, and building capabilities of other national governments.
Brian has built a network of outstanding associates who bring decades of talent towards solving your most demanding management challenges and building up your own team to achieve future success.
