Who We Are
Built by Leaders. Designed for Execution.
FITTWorks is an organizational intelligence company. We build systems that connect leadership decisions, daily work, and performance outcomes into one continuous loop of improvement.
Our Story
From the Floor to the Boardroom
FITTWorks was founded by Lean practitioners, published authors, and operational leaders who spent decades on the front lines — running Lean transformations, coaching executives, and watching organizations repeat the same alignment failures year after year.
Don Tapping and Todd Sperl — authors of over 50 books and apps on business performance and Lean methodology — partnered with technology and strategy leaders to build a platform that makes organizational intelligence truly actionable.
Powered by Harmony AI and developed in partnership with Logic Solutions, Inc., FITTWorks brings enterprise-grade intelligence to organizations of every size.

What We Stand For
Our Operating Principles
Alignment Before Accountability
We believe performance gaps are often alignment gaps. Our frameworks expose where systems and people drift before the metrics do.
Intelligence Over Reports
Data without context is noise. AIS™ converts organizational activity into actionable intelligence — not more dashboards.
Execution Is Everything
Strategy without execution is fiction. We build systems that close the loop between leadership intention and daily action.
