			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Like buildings—companies need structural integrity. As we have seen, even the tallest buildings and biggest companies can fall virtually without warning.</p>
<p>As Wall Street remains focused on financial statements as the key indicator of future performance, The Integrity Institute® is focused on the foundation of the organization and the early warning signs to predict how companies withstand market forces.</p>
<p>Using an integrated econometric model and predictive analytics, The Integrity Institute has identified the key measures of structural integrity that predict corporate performance — 1 to 3 years in advance — giving management sufficient opportunity to mitigate risk and strengthen the organization’s performance.</p>
<p>CEOs need to know the decisions they make will have a positive impact on their corporate performance.</p>
<p>Companies are complex and achieving a bird’s-eye view of how decisions are strategically implemented is often difficult. As business segmentation occurs and silos of information are created, management can end up with a myopic view and the ability to compare internal decisions with external results is nearly impossible.</p>
<p>While many organizations use models to make decisions they believe will impact their bottom line, The Integrity Institute’s tools will allow companies to compare the impact of decisions against the entire market to dramatically improve the effectiveness of management decisions.</p>
<p>Imagine if the market had known . . .<br />
there were cracks in Bear Stearns’ foundation 2 years ago.</p>
<p>The key differentiator of The Integrity Institute is the predictability of its measures of structural integrity. Our Integrity Index™ allows us to gauge whether structural weaknesses exist. Our Integrity Assessment™ allows companies to understand where the structural weaknesses exist. Our Integrity Remediation™ allows consultants to correct the weaknesses before they become problems. Our Integrity Intelligence™ allows companies to understand the impact internal decisions have on external results. And our Integrity University™ provides the training necessary for organizations to remain strong.</p>
