Who we are
About SLC
A global consortium committed to TRANSFORMING THE WORLD AT WORK™ — guides by your side, not sages on the stage.
Our mission
We are a global consortium of experienced consultants, coaches, change facilitators and leadership development specialists. Our “source of wisdom” is Dr John J. Scherer, whose extraordinary decades of transformational knowledge and experience inspire us every day.
Our mission is to guide leaders to unleash their lives and their organizations, thus transforming the world at work so that people, profit and the planet benefit. Whatever the challenges you are facing today — as an individual, as a team or as an organization — those challenges serve as precious opportunities for newness and learning.
We have a network of men and women from 12 nations, all committed to unleashing the human spirit at work. The defining characteristic of our team is that we practice what we preach. In this important work, we are not the sage-on-the-stage but the guide-by-your-side.

How our work is different
Real People, Real Issues in Real-Time
One secret to our success is that we work with real people on real issues in real time, taking on your actual real-world business challenges, rather than using simulated situations.
Sustainability
We teach you what we do and how to keep it going when we’re gone.
Facing ‘Tigers’
We address—and help you harness—the breakthrough potential of unresolved conflicts and out-of-balance polarities.
Total System Focus
We engage the whole person, the whole team, and/or the whole organization.
High-Engagement
We help you utilize the ground-level wisdom of your people at every level in working through your operational ‘logjams’ and barriers to success.
Proven Methodology
We practice the best principles of OD/OE and Action-Research, using breakthrough processes applied successfully in hundreds of situations in virtually every industry around the world.
Unique Solutions
Working with you and utilizing our years of experience, we craft specific, fresh interventions based on your spoken and unspoken needs.
Results/Impact
We are experienced professionals who work with clients to create transformation for individuals, high-performance for teams, and effectiveness breakthroughs for larger organizational elements.
