Research is critical to understanding “what is” and gives critical insight into “what can be”. Springboard is a research-based consultancy. What does that mean? Simply put, we undertake a rigorous process for understanding the current state of our clients before making recommendations on next steps. Springboard has conducted research through executive-level interviews, focus groups and surveys, each confidential and customized, for a wide-range of companies and organizations. Additionally, Springboard brings to client engagements knowledge through our own research on inclusive leadership, executive leadership, professional development and related issues.
