The Science of Leadership

Science. It’s all around you.

Every decision we make as human beings, every response, every action has a foundation in science. That reality lies at the very heart of everything that makes SSCA unique. We’re known for transformative results because our approach is based on proven scientific principles of human behavior. It’s what we’ve been passionate about ever since Bradford Spencer Ph.D. first began providing high quality leadership consulting services back in 1978. We combine systematic analysis with intuitive skills to diagnose both existing and potential problems. Our investigations are not limited to analyzing the symptoms; we probe to identify the underlying causes of the issues that are holding your organization back from its full potential. The overriding mission of every SSCA consultant is to help you and your leadership team transform in order to overcome the common challenges of leadership, thus reaching your goals and achieving personal and professional satisfaction.
