Core Solutions
01

Organizational Assessments

We help organizations uncover strengths, identify challenges, and find opportunities for growth through a clear, data-driven evaluation of structure, culture, and performance.

Our process includes stakeholder interviews, employee surveys, and policy and workflow reviews to provide an honest snapshot of how your organization operates. You’ll receive actionable insights, a prioritized improvement plan, and a roadmap for lasting success.

Tailored to your unique needs, our assessments give you the clarity and direction to achieve better alignment, efficiency, and impact. To support lasting change, we also offer both in‑person and virtual trainings that equip your team with the skills and practices needed to turn recommendations into sustainable results.

02

Leadership Coaching

When executives and managers are expected to deliver more, navigate complexity, and lead with greater clarity, even strong leaders can benefit from focused support. Our Hogan-certified executive coaching helps leaders deepen self-awareness, strengthen decision-making, and elevate their impact with greater confidence and precision. In addition, our team is trained to facilitate Crucial Conversations workshops, helping leaders and teams develop practical skills for navigating challenging conversations and strengthening workplace communication.

03

Inclusive Leadership

The biggest challenges organizations face often come from how people communicate, collaborate, and respond when perspectives differ. Allen & Unger helps leaders and teams build the skills, language, and confidence to navigate differences, strengthen relationships, and create healthier, more effective workplaces that improve collaboration, reduce costly conflict, and support long-term organizational success.

04

Change Management

We help organizations lead change with clarity, alignment, and humanity. Whether your team is navigating a major policy shift, leadership transition, or structural redesign, our approach integrates proven change management practices with our deep expertise in inclusive leadership development.

We guide organizations through each stage of transition, from defining a shared vision and communicating effectively to reinforcing accountability and sustaining new ways of working. Our goal is to help leaders lead change that lasts, building trust, strengthening collaboration, and ensuring every voice is heard along the way.

Change Management services may include leadership workshops, stakeholder engagement sessions, facilitated retreats, or ongoing advisory support tailored to your organization’s size, structure, and stage of change.

Conflict Resolution

We proactively equip teams to navigate difference and help organizations address and heal from workplace conflict. Beyond that, we partner with leadership to provide strategic guidance on revising policies, clarifying roles, and reshaping procedures, creating environments where respect, collaboration, and equitable practices thrive.

Our approach includes:

  • Developing skills in conflict resolution through structured tools, including Crucial Conversations and Conflict Hooks.
