4. The Kalypso Story
The concept for Kalypso was born in a St. Regis hotel
room in Houston when George Young and Bill Poston -
then partners at a large consulting firm - were attending
the retirement party of a close friend and mentor. His
retirement was the spark that ignited an idea.
The idea was Kalypso.
They left comfortable roles with their old firm during
the consulting industry turmoil of 2003 to create
something special and have some fun.
7. In Their Own Words
We founded the firm on a core principle – to serve clients the way they want to
be served. Serving clients is a privilege and it is our responsibility to do it well.
We saw a market with niche competitors focused on narrow aspects of innovation,
strategy and operations, and large technology competitors implementing product
lifecycle management (PLM) systems. We did not see anyone who could combine
management consulting with PLM technology implementation expertise.
Three factors allow us to truly make something innovative happen in the
marketplace: (1) an exclusive focus and a comprehensive set of capabilities
to deliver sustained improvements in innovation, (2) a unique blend of
people – true characters with character, and (3) a strong set of core values
and a cultural affinity for hard work on cutting-edge concepts.
What is it that makes Kalypso so special? We work really hard and
balance that with the fact that we get to do interesting work for amazing
clients every day. But behind it all, the key to it, is our people.

30. What It Means to Be a Kalypsonian
You will work hard.
Maybe a lot harder than at any other firm. The benefit is working with world-class clients on
the most interesting assignments imaginable. We are changing the way the world innovates,
improving people’s lives and the economies in which we operate in return. This is a privilege
and it is our responsibility to do it well. This is not just a job or a career – it’s a calling.
You will work in innovation.
Our exclusive focus on innovation, product development, and product lifecycle
management means that you will always be working on projects within that scope.
This is all we do. Driving growth through innovation is exciting and intrinsically
rewarding work. If this is your thing, Kalypso is the place for you.
31. You are in control. It is what you make it.
Kalypso was built for future generations of partners. It is a platform from which to manage your
career. Our partnership model is unlike other public or closely held firms in that each member of
the Kalypso team has the opportunity to become an owner. You can “build the house you want
to live in.” Your path may look different than your colleagues’. You are in the driver’s seat.
You will grow. A lot.
Our firm has a passion for personal development, but your own passion is what will
drive your growth. Sure, the learning curve may be steep at times but you will have the
opportunity to learn from and work alongside senior practitioners with years of experience.
And, because we believe in the development of the whole person, we want you to pursue
what you love outside of work as well. Like skydiving? We want to hear about it. Play in
a band? Tell us more. We are characters with character, not consulting automatons.
32. You will be virtual.
Our innovative business model enables us to work virtually around the world, ready to fly
to a client whenever the need arises. No relocation necessary means you can live anywhere
in the world at any point in your career. Social technologies are our friend. Your fellow
Kalypsonians may not sit in a cube beside you but they are always available to help.
You will play hard.
We know how to have fun at work and after. Any given week you will find project
teams creating new ways to incorporate fun into client service, finding new spots for
team dinners, and exploring cities around the world. Not to mention we’ve perfected
the art of throwing a party. New Orleans, Chicago, Keystone, Washington D.C. – just
a few of the cities we’ve invaded for our annual celebration or frequent retreats.

34. Pamela Soin:
A Character With Character
As a child, I wanted to be the change we all wish to see in the world. A world full of colors, light and
sparkle. But alas, it’s never easy. Desperate to begin my revolution, I was trapped in places like Beaver,
WV and Clemmons, NC. So, I set my sights on Manhattan (my current home). But before I could declare
victory in spreading my noble cause, “Live like the world is flat (LLTWiF),” I needed something bigger.
In 2004 I moved to London and lived in a bar. Later through Kalypso, I lived in Amsterdam where
the LLTWiF movement was formalized. I’ve walked Thai islands, survived N. Korea/S. Korea
conflict in Seoul, wandered Australian rainforests and Indian urban chaos. The success metric
for the LLTWiF movement is simple: % Full Passport Pages. I am proud to say after attending
a wedding this year in Argentina, I earned the coveted LLTWiF 6th degree quadruple-ninja-
hadouken-Level 8 master Jedi Blackbelt. This honor is bestowed once you achieve 100%.
What is your motto?
“Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.” - Ferris Bueller
35. What is your greatest fear?
Babies on planes.
When was a time you felt the entire world was against you?
Calculus III, Thermodynamics and trying to maintain socialite status all in one semester at NCSU.
Which living person do you most admire?
Pashauri Lal Jauhar. Also known as my 90 year old grandfather who escaped death and lost
everything in the 1940’s in the India/Pakistan war; who still writes poetry and delivers speeches at
every event like he is running for office; and who spends 4 hours a day in the gym. Enough said.
If you were an architectural structure, which
structure would you be and why?
The Eiffel tower, because not only would I get to live in Paris, every night I
would get to do a sparkling light show for the people. My people.
36. “ Being a Kalypsonian means the world
is your oyster. You have unlimited
opportunity to create and make the
biggest mark you possibly desire. ”
– Pamela Soin , Senior Manager
38. A Kalypso Journey:
QA with Joe Dury, Director
How did you get here?
After over 25 years in high tech I joined Kalypso back in early 2006 as a senior consultant to work
with and grow the electronics and semiconductor client base. I was excited to help grow Kalypso as a
professional services firm, having had years of experience in my corporate career hiring and working
with RD and new product development (NPD) consulting firms. I knew I could provide input on what
I liked and didn’t like about those experiences. Since then, Kalypso has helped me to thrive in the
areas of innovation I love – working in semiconductors and intellectual property (IP) management.
Now almost six years later, being part of the leadership and ownership team at Kalypso, I find it’s
critical to reciprocate the mentoring and coaching I received both within Kalypso and with our clients.
What does being a Kalypso director mean to you?
I appreciate the opportunity to help shape the firm’s growth plan, both in the
clients we serve and in bringing on new people with the values and experience
that fuel our ability to serve our clients with results that matter.
39. What areas will you focus on in your new role?
I will continue to lead our semiconductor practice and strive to guide clients with clear advice
on innovation. Today’s pressures mean that companies must change, adopt and innovate
quickly, or they’ll quickly become irrelevant and probably less profitable. I will help enable
our clients to advance their NPD and time to market (TTM) processes and leverage their RD
investment to bring innovative products to market quickly and cost effectively. I will also
look to grow our IP practice and expand our capabilities with new and existing clients.
Where is the most interesting town/city
you’ve been for a client project?
I’d say returning to the New England area; I love the distinct four seasons of the greater
Boston area, where my wife and I lived for 20 years prior to relocating to North Carolina
(both of our sons continue to live there). There’s always something to do near Boston as
it’s the “Athens” of the US with all of its college towns and the ever-exciting Red Sox.
But I also enjoy the San Francisco Bay area since it’s the heartbeat of high tech.
40. What is your favorite Kalypso value?
Actually there are two favorites. The first is leaders behind the leaders, as we’re responsible
for ensuring our clients’ success. At Kalypso we understand it’s about the client and not about
us. This is so valued by those we serve, and there’s nothing like seeing the leaders we advise
step up and get all of the credit! The other value is characters with character which, simply put,
keeps Kalypso unique and weird. Where else could you find such a diversity of innovators?!
Why is working in innovation exciting to you?
Innovation requires collaboration which fuels the energy needed to make that idea, project or
product materialize from where it first begins as part of an ideation process, to the tradeoffs
and dialogues needed as it matures through engineering development. Innovation requires
both good management and excellent leadership - focusing on the business results and RD
processes, while ensuring the right people on the team can deliver results using these processes.
Helping clients channel their teams’ energy to get their desired results is really fun!
41. In what ways have you grown professionally
and/or personally at Kalypso?
The values of Kalypso are great; they’re truly part of the DNA of our organization. As part
of this, the feedback we give and receive from one another creates a “culture of candor.”
Personally, I have valued hearing feedback from both our team and client what we are
doing well and what needs to improve. This method of continuous improvement allows us
to build and remodel the house we want to live in. It’s stretched me to make Kalypso even
better by developing myself and mentoring others on the team to do the same. All of this
helps us our clients to meet their expectations and deliver on the promise of innovation!
43. “ As part of our values system, theanother
we give to and receive from one
feedback
creates a culture of candor. This method of
continuous improvement allows us to build
and remodel the house we want to live in.
”
– Joe Dury , Director
44.
45. Delivering on the Promise of Community
At Kalypso, we believe that innovation combined
with action can change the world for the better.
We believe in devoting the same level of service excellence that we give to
our clients to our own communities in which we live, work, and play.
