ABOUT CHRIS BURKHARD

I help leaders and organizations close the gap between where they are and where they want to be.With more than 25 years of experience as a coach, entrepreneur, and servant leader, I serve as President of Placers, delivering custom workforce and Total Talent Solutions to organizations across the Mid-Atlantic. Placers is a multi-year Inc. honoree, was named Delaware’s 10th fastest-growing company in 2022, and recognized as a Top Workplace in Delaware in 2023.I’m honored to be an inductee into the Delaware Business Hall of Fame, the 2020 Delaware Small Business Person of the Year, a member of the Delaware Class of 2026, and co-author of Opposite the Crowd, a book that challenges conventional thinking about leadership, growth, and success.Beyond the business, I write, speak, and host the Outside Insights Podcast, where I explore leadership, culture, and decision-making with entrepreneurs and executives. I believe the most meaningful growth, personal and professional, happens when we’re willing to think differently, act with intention, and lead with courage.
