DISABILITY-OWNED BUSINESS ENTERPRISE CERTIFICATION

Neurodiversity: A Multiplier

Disability-Owned Business Enterprise (DOBE) certification logo

In 2023, Genesis10 became certified as a Disability-Owned Business Enterprise (DOBE), which is granted to businesses that are at least 51% owned, operated, controlled, and managed by a person with a disability.

Our CEO Harley Lippman is neurodivergent.

In a 2013 interview with Forbes, Harley shared, “For me, it strengthens other traits that I have, like intuition, and being able to read people. It also forces me to ask people to give me the bottom line first.”

SCH_LogoHarley has always asked people to begin with the bottom line—start with the outcome, ensure mutual understanding, and then discuss supporting particulars. This approach, which encourages transparency, curiosity, deep listening, and a focus on what matters, laid the cornerstones of the company’s culture.

Be present. Listen deeply. Execute.
It’s how we separate ourselves from our peers. It's how we do business. Unchanged since our founding in 1999.

While some may describe neurodiversity as a deficit, we believe it’s a multiplier.
