Drake, Beam and Associates founded in 1967 in Boston.John Drake and Jerry Beam were psychologists in
private practice when they formed a human resources
consulting firm specializing in executive assessments
and interview training. In 1969, a client asked that they
reverse the process to teach ex-employees how to
interview to “get hired.” This was the firm’s first group
outplacement workshop. Drake Beam Morin, Inc. (DBM)
was formed when William J. Morin joined the Firm to
manage their new outplacement business division.
Robert J. Lee & Associatesfounded in 1974 in New York.Robert (Bob) Lee, a Ph.D. Psychologist, began his own private
practice in New York City working with organizations doing
performance appraisal systems, executive training, executive
assessments for selections, and other organizational and
management consulting. He recalled that he got into
outplacement because his clients asked for his expertise as
an applied psychologist to work with executives in transition.
Lee Hecht Harrison was formed after Bob Hecht and Steve
Harrison joined the Firm.
