We routinely provide our clients written reports and/or statistical data describing and evaluating our work. Starting in 2024, to broaden the audiences who benefit from our work’s concepts, techniques, methodologies, systems, and outcomes, we will include a focus on publishing books and articles. The latter will include peer-reviewed journals.
Topics for the book/articles will include communication, problem-solving and decision-making, performance facilitation and the CARE 3-Step System™, attention deficit disorders and learning disabilities, evidence-based professional practice, relevant diversity™ , personality/styles, professional siloism™ , systems thinking, and organizations’ mission, vision, and values.
