Why Leaders Choose Us
Clarity. Discipline. Performance.
Most firms add complexity. We eliminate it.

Modern, pressure-tested frameworks.
We don’t adapt old models—we build what comes next.

Our Commitment
Seattle Consulting Group exists to give leaders the control, clarity, and operating discipline they need to move fast and stay aligned. Whether you are rebuilding HR, redesigning leadership systems, or protecting your team from organizational drift, we help you install the systems that last.
Your organization doesn’t need another motivational model.
It needs an operating system.
We build that system with you.
About Seattle Consulting Group
Seattle Consulting Group is an international HR and leadership systems firm that helps organizations replace failing talent models with structures that actually work. Based in Canada and serving clients across the U.S. and worldwide, we redesign HR and leadership systems for speed, clarity, and execution under pressure.
We don’t train.
We architect.
Our work is grounded in The Woods HR Power Model™, a proprietary operating system built to correct the structural weaknesses created by legacy HR frameworks—especially the Ulrich model. We help CEOs, CHROs, and HR professionals without structural power install the systems that restore control, eliminate culture drag, and drive consistent performance.
What We Believe
Organizations don’t break because people don’t care—they break because their systems don’t enforce what leaders expect.
We focus on systems over sentiment, turning vague expectations into clear standards, enforceable structures, and operating routines that hold under real-world pressure.
This approach is called Execution by Design™. It works because it’s structural, not motivational.
