NEW YORK - Nyenta -- EMBER™, the company behind the scientific breakthrough of Collective Organizational Identification (COI™), today announced that Bret Sanford-Chung has joined its Board of Directors. Sanford-Chung, widely recognized as one of the foremost and most influential leaders in modern global marketing, comes to EMBER with a track record of transforming brands, building organizations, and advising senior executives at the highest levels.

I am thrilled to join EMBER's board and to help fuel its next chapter of growth as more organizations realize this is not just a measurement system; it's a new language for how brands and businesses thrive."
