Scott Nyegaard holds a Master of Science in Industrial/Organizational Psychology from the University of Walden and a Bachelor of Science in Applied Psychology from Bemidji State University.  He is the CEO and Founder of Legacy Group, LLC an agency specializing in evidence-based trainings. Twenty-five years in the Helping Fields has been part of his journey, working largely with adolescent populations.  Much of his energy is expressed by promoting a Strength Based approach in people and agencies. Scott was the Treatment Director for a juvenile facility in Upper Minnesota from 1998-2015, where he had oversight in all programming, staff recruitment and training, client treatment implementation and budget spending.  Scott has trained in most areas of the U.S. and led several International trainings in Ireland, Canada, and Uganda.  He has trained thousands of participants who are committed to learning Evidence Based Programs and skills. In 2010, Scott founded Legacy Group, LLC a consulting agency, and developed this venture over the next five years until it grew into a full-time commitment.  A primary purpose of this agency is to invest in people and help them fulfill their legacy.  Too often individuals chase to concept of ‘some day’.  This can often lead to missing out on the present, where we should be investing our time and energy.  ‘Live the Legacy you want to leave’ is part of his Mission Statement.
