What We Do

We create dialogue & insight for intelligent change for leaders, organizations and careers.

Our Services

We drive change. We turn insight into action. We work with senior leaders to develop organization plans. We also help drive middle manager/supervisor action plans through action planning tools, manager training and best practices knowledge bases.

We create insight and action from data. We use data-driven dialogue to create insight and commitment to improvement.

• We analyze data from existing employee surveys, leadership assessments or HR information systems, adding insight from innovative statistical methods and our experience with organizational research.
• We conduct targeted research studies, doing all phases of the research – design, data collection, analysis and reporting.
• We create assessments. We can assist you in designing surveys, hiring systems, competency measures (for people or for jobs) and 360 assessments.
• We design reporting systems and validation studies that maximize the practical impact of your assessment data. We can assist you in selection of survey processing firms.

We coach for success. We help you stretch into your best self. Your Slade & Associates coach draws out your expertise and insight through inquiry, curiosity and gentle challenges.
