In the early 1980s, our founders recognised a fundamental gap in how organisations understood their people. While businesses had plenty of data about operations and finances, they had little insight into the individuals who drove their success. This realisation sparked the creation of Thomas - a company built on the belief that understanding human behaviour was the key to unlocking organisational potential. What began as a family business co-founded by Ray Reed has evolved into a global powerhouse in people science. For over 40 years, we've pioneered psychometric assessments that help organisations recruit smarter, build cohesive teams, and develop exceptional leaders. Today, we're transforming again - moving beyond traditional assessments to become an AI-powered people science platform. With Thomas Connect, we're using the intersection of behavioural insight, data, and technology to revolutionise how teams communicate and collaborate, creating a world where people thrive through self-awareness and authentic connection.
