What We Do
Workplace Assessments, Organizational Reviews, and Strategy
When growth or change creates tension and disruption, we step in to help. Our team assesses the situation, analyzes the results, and provides clear, practical recommendations to address current challenges and prevent future issues.
Example: A large organization with multiple departments asked us to evaluate the ripple effects of changes in one area. Our recommendations for sequenced staffing adjustments helped rebalance workloads while also revealing costly inefficiencies and redundancies.
Workplace Investigations
We conduct thorough, fair, and respectful investigations across all sectors and organizational sizes, from a few dozen employees to several hundred. Allegations may range from straightforward incidents to complex, highly sensitive matters.
Example: A Board Chair retained us to investigate allegations of sexual misconduct involving the CEO of a large organization. Our work uncovered a clear pattern of grooming and predatory behavior.
Facilitation, Mediation, and Negotiation
We help parties find common ground and rebuild trust, even in high-stakes or emotionally charged situations. Through structured processes, we create safe spaces for difficult conversations, encourage clear communication, and support creative problem-solving.
Negotiation is often woven into, or emerges from, our facilitation and mediation services, all built on the same foundation of skill, respect, and pragmatism.
Example: We supported a group of 200 individuals dealing with a highly public, emotionally intense issue under media scrutiny. Our approach — including active listening, safe discussions, creative solutions, and a clear action plan — led to a resolution accepted by all parties.
Executive Coaching and Advisory
Leaders often need a trusted, confidential sounding board when navigating complex or sensitive challenges. We bring deep organizational experience and offer thoughtful, pragmatic, and discreet support.
Example: A new President of a mid-sized organization sought help developing HR policies. That request evolved into a multi-year advisory relationship through significant business changes, including two ownership transitions. Together, we built consistent, rational processes and supported the President in becoming a confident, trusted leader.
Mentorship for Young Professionals
Early-career professionals don’t always have access to safe, consistent mentorship and may lack the soft skills essential for workplace success. We provide a trusted space grounded in deep listening, confidentiality, and long-term commitment, helping them grow with confidence and resilience.
