Business Consulting

When you own a small business, nine-to-five workdays don’t exist. You can’t always separate work from life, because your business is your life. Of course you have outside interests and personal goals you aspire to accomplish, but your business is critical to making those things happen. At Keating & Associates, we understand how much you put into your business and how much you hope to get out of it, and we’re here to help you plan effectively for both the work and the reward.

Our associates will meet with you on a quarterly basis, utilizing strategic tools to help identify your company’s most important new projects and develop action plans to better support them. In addition, we will provide guidance to help you clarify the long-term priorities and outline the direction of your business. We believe that our ability, paired with our years of consulting experience, makes us an invaluable asset to your work and your life as you seek to bring both into balance.

Optimizing Employee Teams – Kolbe Discovery Seminar

Kolbe is a one-of-a-kind, online behavioral assessment that quantifies an individual's instinctive makeup. Multiple benefits for employers who follow the Kolbe approach include higher retention rates, lower absenteeism, greater employee engagement and less job-related stress. The most important benefit is improved communications.

A Kolbe Discovery Seminar is a half-day introduction to key Kolbe concepts, including a complete inventory and analysis of a team’s unique set of instinctive strengths. Participants learn how their natural abilities align with their own performance expectations, and also how those abilities align with their supervisors’ requirements for success.

If you are a leader seeking high performance teams, or are attempting to diagnose issues with teams not performing at their peak, give Kolbe a look – you may be amazed at the results.
