Who We Are:
Bedell Consulting is a general industrial and organizational psychology practice that uses evidence-based best practices and workplace behavioral science to create positive changes within organizations. We work with small businesses, organizations, professional associations, non-profits, and government entities.
Instead of viewing organizational issues and problems as unwanted challenges, at Bedell Consulting, we embrace them as opportunities for learning and growth.
We truly believe that both employees and leaders want to make a positive difference at work. Employees want their jobs to matter and to feel like they belong, while leaders want to build a team that is engaged, loyal, and ready to think creatively. When challenges arise and goals become difficult to meet, we’re here to offer our expertise and help everyone succeed together.
We focus on PEOPLE—small business owners, executive leaders, managers, teams, and staff—because they are the heart of every organization. We listen carefully to your challenges and goals, and then, in collaboration with you, apply evidence-based best practices to develop tailored SOLUTIONS. These solutions address workforce and leadership challenges that impact performance, productivity, workplace culture, and the bottom line. Our people-centered approach delivers meaningful, effective RESULTS.
People. Solutions. Results.
