This necessity was in getting top talent which produces an exceptional return on investment. He was working in an industry where talent was very scarce.
“I was working in a senior management position for multiple enterprises, and we had a really hard time finding good development resources and finding people with the right attitude. What I noticed is that culture is what attracts world class developers. I began to learn how to build a good culture within my development team as a Manager and also how to motivate people to work with me based on our values. I realized that I could do that for a business, and that’s how I started consulting,” David CEO.

A Humble Beginning
At the beginning, ISU Corp was faced with a few challenges such as acquiring clients and making sure that the company got the best talent.
“What we learned is: we must choose the right client with the right values. We also learned that we must be very careful while choosing the right engineers with the right values. We make sure that we create a win-win situation where our developers and our employees are happy to go to work because they are learning and they are growing. Our clients are happy to retain us because we provide excellent value to them and we provide exceptional service,” David affirms.

The client’s come to ISU Corp because they provide exceptional custom software that is ensured to have a great return on investment.
ISU Corp staffs all their projects with senior resources and if needed, with other pre-qualified consultants and technical experts from business partners, associates, and vendor professional services.

We hire the best of the best and in turn provide our team members with an excellent company culture. We treat each other with respect and think of our team members as part of a family,” David adds.
David believes this helps the company grow as the clients know that they can entrust ISU Corp with their projects, and the clients keep coming back for all their future development needs. The firm also goes above and beyond what the client has asked for and provides wonderful value adds such as Hublinked.com; a private social network designed for optimal client communication and collaboration.
