IN MEMORY:

Founder - Hoyt W. Doyel: May, 1948 - August, 2001

Hoyt was the founder of ECI.   He started ECI in 1991 after over 20 compensation specific years in nationwide consulting firms and other organizations.  Hoyt wanted to provide service to clients of all sizes and types in a manner that was responsive to client needs.  Hoyt felt in order to do that he needed to start his own firm, which he did.  Under his direction, ECI grew from a one person shop to the largest independent compensation consulting organization in the Rocky Mountain region with eight employees.  Due to health reasons, Hoyt sold ECI to Terry Isselhardt in January 2001.  Hoyt passed away August 2001 and we want to honor his memory by keeping his name associated with ECI.  He will be missed.
