Building unity within the diversity of the workforce is a core requirement of progress. Conflict undermines high performance.

Today, organizations are challenged to foster a spirit of common purpose within an increasingly diverse workforce, in an environment of constant change. The art of management now requires the facilitation of communication and individual responsibility to unify the diversity of people, skills, knowledge, and kinds of work to be done.

Although millions are spent annually on diversity programs, the results have been mixed. Most organizations consistently fall short in their efforts to achieve deep and lasting change. Issues of diversity confound organizations. Too often we have chosen to settle for tolerance and written off our inability to do better as human nature. The Henderson Consulting Group has developed an approach that helps managers learn to transform the spirit and character of their organizations, fostering a strong sense of teamwork, improved analysis and problem solving, effective communication, and rising productivity.

We start by identifying models of inter-group cooperation and understanding, examples of people effectively bridging the gaps that result from a sense of difference of any kind in your organization. We call these, "Models of Unity." These models are critical strengths. They demonstrate how much your organization already knows about diversity and they already exist, operating as good practices in your organizational culture and using your organizational language. Once we have identified these models, we offer customized training to maximize the impact of these newly found strengths. We show managers how to utilize and expand these models to help your organization meet its challenges and goals.

With more than 30 years of experience working with Fortune 500 companies, industrial, manufacturing, retail, and telecommunications companies, professional sports teams, airlines and institutions of higher education, Henderson Consulting is capable of meeting a wide range of client needs.

Our success results from years of excellent client relations, our sustained focus on the development of expert knowledge in the areas of diversity and management, our appreciation of the changes in the nature of work and the workplace, and our capacity to understand difficult problems and formulate highly effective solutions.
