Leap Solutions Group

What Leap Solutions Group does

Leap Solutions Group is a privately held business management consulting firm headquartered in Santa Rosa, California, that provides organizational development, human resources, executive search, recruiting, executive coaching, training, and meeting facilitation services. Founded in 1998 by Scott Ormerod as a solo practice and merged with Chuck McPherson's practice in 2004, the firm operates through eight Northern California offices (Santa Rosa, Eureka, Healdsburg, San Rafael, Ukiah, Auburn, Colusa, Redding) and serves clients across nine verticals including hospitality, nonprofit, wine and food, healthcare, education, banking and finance, government, and family-owned businesses. The company's product surface is anchored by customized HR2Leap packages, project-based consulting engagements, and a set of branded practice tools—Meet2Leap™ for meeting facilitation and PDP™ ProScan™, JobScan™, and TeamScan™ behavioral assessment systems—that differentiate its methodology rather than constitute a software platform.

The firm runs a custom-quote, multi-year contract professional services model with a sales-led go-to-market. Engagement is driven by direct phone inquiry, website contact forms, a monthly newsletter, and active social/community channels (LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, Celebrate Community). In March 2024 Leap Solutions was acquired by George Petersen Insurance Agency (GPIA) and now operates as a division of that 90-year-old, one of the largest independently owned insurance agencies in Northern California, enabling a bundled HR-plus-insurance-plus-employee-benefits offering. The company reports 1–10 employees, has no external funding, and does not publicly disclose revenue.
