CEO, YRCI 

YRCI is offering a FREE lunchtime webinar to share techniques that have helped members of our workforce address change, stress, and personal challenges.  Join us for this special event on February 27, 2025 from 12:00 – 12:30 PM where you can learn easy-to-use techniques that have helped team members not only cope but thrive under pressure (see registration link at the bottom of this article). 

Many colleagues face personal and professional stress that can impact both well-being and work performance. The rapid pace of change can create uncertainty that often gives rise to emotions such as worry, frustration, and anxiety. Research from the HeartMath® Institute reveals that these emotions also disrupt our cognitive functioning, decision-making abilities, and overall performance. Over time, these depleting emotions lead to long-term consequences such as sickness, burnout, and declining morale.  

In this short 30-minute webinar, you’ll learn a couple HeartMath® techniques that YRCI staff use to regulate depleting emotions, improving their well-being and creating more productive work environments.  

What is HeartMath? 

The HeartMath® Institute is an organization dedicated to exploring the connection between heart rhythms, emotions, and cognitive performance. Through over 30 years of extensive research, they’ve identified a critical link between our emotional states and heart rate variability (HRV), a key indicator of how well our bodies adapt to stress. 

At the core of the HeartMath® Institute’s findings is the concept of “Heart Coherence.” Heart Coherence occurs when the heart, mind, and emotions are in sync, working together in harmony. When we experience negative emotions like frustration or anxiety, this coherence is disrupted, leading to erratic heart rhythms and energy depletion. However, by using simple, evidence-based techniques, such as Heart-Focused Breathing™ or the Quick Coherence® technique, we can restore coherence, calm the nervous system, and reverse the energy drain. 

These techniques help individuals shift from reactive, stressed states to more balanced, proactive ones, enabling better emotional regulation, clearer thinking, and improved resilience. 

The Importance of Emotional Well-Being in the Workplace 

The consequences of unrelenting stress are too costly to ignore as the effects of unmanaged stress reach beyond individual well-being. Prolonged exposure to stress hormones like cortisol contributes to fatigue, emotional exhaustion, and even health problems such as high blood pressure and heart disease. When this happens across teams, it results in higher absenteeism, reduced job satisfaction, and a decline in overall performance. 

In addition, the complexity and unpredictability inherent in most workplaces require clear-headed decision-making and adaptive leadership. Yet, when individuals are stuck in a state of worry, frustration, or anxiety, their ability to think creatively, make sound decisions, and lead effectively is diminished. HeartMath® techniques offer a way to counteract this by building resilience and maintaining emotional balance in high-pressure environments. 

For organizations, promoting emotional well-being and resilience is an investment in employees’ health as well as a strategy for improving performance. When leadership and team members manage their stress more effectively, they are enabled to stay energized, focused, and engaged, even during uncertain times. 

A Path Forward 

As we navigate increasingly uncertain times, managing stress is more critical than ever. HeartMath® Institute’s science-based, easy-to-use techniques can help team members to not only cope but thrive under pressure.  

Join HeartMath® Institute’s Director of Research, Dr. Rollin McCraty, and YRCI’s Director of Business Transformation, Harper Wagner, for an Introduction to HeartMath® Lunch & Learn webinar at 12:00 – 12:30 PM, EST on Feb 27, 2025, where you’ll learn about Heart Coherence and practice simple techniques to create it. 

RESTON, Va – January 08, 2025 – YRCI, a leading provider of federal human capital solutions, is pleased to announce the appointment of Matt Hoyt to Chief Financial Officer (CFO), effective January 1st, 2025. Hoyt is succeeding Michael Goldman as YRCI’s CFO. Goldman, who has held the position since 2013, will retire in March 2025 after over 20 years of exceptional leadership and dedication. Goldman will continue to serve on the YRCI Board of Directors as Secretary and Treasurer. 

“Matt has demonstrated hands-on to us all since day one that he is both a strategic and tactical leader to be admired. I am grateful for his contributions and dedication to ensure sustained growth. Michael Goldman retires having been a wonderful leader and mentor and leaves a legacy of efficient and compliant operations,” said Hans Jaeger, CEO. 

Hoyt joined YRCI in 2014 as a Financial and Information Systems Analyst and has progressively advanced through leadership roles in finance, technology, and business operations as a Manager, Director, and Vice President. Through these roles, he has been involved in every aspect of corporate business operations, playing a pivotal role in driving strategic growth and operational improvements across the company. Most recently, he served as Vice President & Deputy CFO, where he provided strategic oversight of YRCI’s financial planning, technology initiatives, and business innovation efforts as part of the YRCI Executive Governance Committee (EGC).  

“Matt has shown exceptional leadership, strategic vision, and a commitment to fostering collaboration and innovation, driving financial excellence while strengthening partnerships across YRCI. I am confident that under his guidance, YRCI’s financial and organizational success will continue to reach new heights,” said Stephanie Smith, President. 

As CFO, Hoyt will lead YRCI’s Accounting, Finance, Pricing, Contracts, Information Technology, and Digital Solutions organizations. In this capacity, he will oversee the company’s financial health and strategy, ensuring operational excellence, compliance, and innovation across all areas. He will continue to be part of the EGC with Jaeger and Smith leading the day-to-day and strategic operations of the company. 

“Becoming YRCI’s CFO is both a tremendous honor and an exciting opportunity to continue helping shape the future of a company I deeply believe in,” said Hoyt. “Michael Goldman’s leadership has set a remarkable standard, and I am committed to building on his legacy by driving sustainable growth and operational excellence. As we navigate the dynamic GovCon landscape, I look forward to working alongside our talented team to ensure YRCI continues to strengthen our clients’ ability to serve the American people.” 

With more than 15 years of experience in government contracting finance and technology, Hoyt embodies the qualities essential for a modern CFO, combining strategic foresight, technological expertise, and a deep understanding of financial management. His approach to integrating data-driven decision-making with innovative problem-solving ensures that YRCI remains agile and competitive in a rapidly evolving industry.
