Who's. Frank.
They call me Frank.
I’m Kevin Haglof, but Frank is a nickname that stuck and it’s also how I like to work:
frankly.
Being. Frank.
With over 30 years of global business experience in startups, small to medium businesses and large public companies, I’ve seen firsthand the top challenges that business owners and their teams face every day. As top athletes and teams have a coach, so should business owners, leaders and their teams. With a passion for business and helping others realize their personal success, today I help coach businesses of all sizes to reach their potential by making all the pieces fit.
But let’s back up a bit.
I was born and raised in the small Canadian town of Dawson Creek, which is Mile Zero of the Alaska Highway. So my journey in life literally started at Mile Zero and it’s been a metaphor for me ever since. I’ve long understood that change and growth start with realizing that you’re embarking on a journey – and no journey is ever a straight line. From Mile Zero to ultimate business satisfaction and reward, I like our work together to be fun, fluid and focused. My goal is to make the journey as good as the destination.
Early in my career, I spent 40 weeks a year fitting golf clubs for PGA and LPGA major champions, hall-of-famers and legends of the game. So you can say that I’ve been fitting all my life, from golf clubs to high performing businesses. What I’ve learned is that business optimization and high performance is all about fit. People fit, culture fit, skill fit, product or service fit, and process fit. All the pieces must fit.
And I can say with absolute confidence that fit is the way forward for your business.
‘No journey is ever a straight line. My goal is to make the journey as rewarding as the destination.’
In 2002, I really began to see how an open book philosophy was the only way to run a business. I moved to Singapore to set up companies throughout Asia Pacific and in a short period of time, hired and led the teams that quadrupled our business across 20 countries. The successes I’ve created since then, across many geographies and diverse cultures, have shown me that transparency, building trust, collaboration, a positive culture and having fun are the only ways to run a rewarding and successful business. And most importantly, it works anywhere and everywhere.
I’d like to prove it to you.
Frank. Facts.
What keeps you up at night?
Looking to improve operations. Struggling to realize significant growth. Wanting employees to play a more active role. Wishing your employees had more growth and education opportunities, and a better understanding of the business. Working in your business rather than on your business. At FRANK, we know how to tackle tough issues, so your company performs better and you rest easier.
The best play differently than the rest
Early in my career, I spent 40 weeks a year fitting golf clubs for PGA and LPGA major champions, hall-of-famers and legends of the game. What I saw firsthand was how the best of the best prepare and execute differently. And that proves true among top athletes, sports teams, musicians, Michelin star restaurants, top business people and companies all around the world. They make every piece of their work fit so they can perform at a high level. I can show you how to play like the best.
What if your work was truly rewarding?
For most people, work is a significant part of their lives that’s unfortunately characterized by a lack of trust, no transparency, no collaboration, and low engagement. But it doesn’t have to be that way. At FRANK, we help build truly special and seriously fun workplaces that result in happier people, better business results and greater rewards for everyone. Together, we’ll make you an employer that attracts the best talent.
The Great Game of Business
The foundation for what we do is called "The Great Game of Business” – a time tested growth system that takes the basic components of any game – rules, ways of keeping score, elements of luck and talent, winners and losers, plus rewards for winning and consequences for losing – and applies them to the challenge of running a business. And it works. Just ask brands such as Chick-Fil-A, Southwest Airlines, Harley Davidson and many more that have “played the game” over the years.
Every journey starts at Mile Zero
For every business, the strongest, most viable resource you have is your people. And that’s where we start – that is Mile Zero. Frank will teach your people the basics of business, educate them to understand the financials, and involve them in business success. Mile Zero is where the magic begins – transforming you into a business of business people, which gives you an immense competitive advantage.
