Three Arch measures how engagement impacts performance — in dollars — and shows leaders what to fix for the highest return on investment. Because engagement isn't just an HR issue. It's financial too.
See the Three Arch DiagnosticThe pandemic and generative AI rewrote the operating manual for organizations, forcing every function to answer the same question: how do we create value when the old playbook no longer works?
The answer increasingly points to a single determinant — how well an organization aligns its people behind the work. Yet engagement is owned by the wrong function, measured the wrong way, and treated as a soft concern.
When AI pilots stall, hybrid breaks down, or transformations miss their targets, leaders blame strategy, technology, or change management. The root cause is usually an engagement problem the business never owned.
The proof it's possible already exists inside every organization — the people who are engaged today. Three Arch exists to close that gap.
Our model draws from decades of research in motivation science, behavioral psychology, and performance management.
We connect your engagement data to financial outcomes and target the highest-ROI opportunities for improvement.
Run our engagement diagnostic across your teams to capture Meaning, Belonging, and Mastery scores, and benchmark against top-quartile performance.
Populate a three-statement financial model with your actuals. Convert organizational scores into a CFO-defensible quantification of recoverable impact.
Pinpoint the two to three behavioral interventions — typically 70% of recoverable value — and tie each to specific operational and financial metrics.
Deliver a 90-day operating model owned by line leaders, not HR. Engagement becomes embedded within operational excellence — not another HR initiative.

Ryan Almon founded Three Arch after leading enterprise transformations at Adobe, Microsoft, AT&T, and ServiceNow as a Senior Consultant in Ernst & Young's People Consulting practice — including four years as the sole EY consultant leading Adobe's global Future of Work program through and after COVID.
Earlier in his career he built financial acumen at PIMCO, where he closed $1.3B in institutional mandates and joined the task force standing up the Federal Reserve's Commercial Paper Funding Facility during COVID-19. That combination — financial rigor and on-the-ground transformation experience — is the foundation for Three Arch's business-first approach to engagement.
If you're a CEO, CFO, or board member who suspects engagement is moving the P&L — and want it measured, prioritized, and embedded — we'd welcome the conversation.
