  • "The teams were going through a lot of changes at the company while also dealing with issues in their daily lives. I reached out to HumanSide to help my team connect.

    HumanSide guided us through team-bonding activities that really helped folks share and let others learn about their experience and feelings. My main ask was for the experience to bring us together and not to feel like homework, make it feel like something folks want to do. Once we got into the activities I could quickly tell we succeeded on that front."

    Robert Lembi | Director of Program Management, Nike

  • ”We came to HumanSide with the challenge of reducing tension while increasing collaboration, understanding, and empathy across 8 globally-dispersed teams at Google. HumanSide conducted listening tours with all 8 teams to explore the lived experience that surrounds our business goal, strategy, direction, and vision. The insights from these sessions helped leadership realize they needed to make fundamental changes in how we operate. HumanSide provided a safe environment to share openly and build trust. They expertly captured and accurately represented our voices, ideas, experiences to leadership; even, and especially, the uncomfortable ones. Our team has an enormous amount of respect for, and implicitly trusts the HumanSide team. They felt like a friendly advocate coming to help hear, acknowledge, and represent our concerns.”

    Leah Beltz | Global Sales Training, Google

  • “With two weeks to launch, HumanSide was able to custom design the majority of our sessions and train our volunteer facilitators to lead engaging sessions. I continue to look for excuses to collaborate with them because they bring an unparalleled mix of experience, professionalism, and authenticity I rarely see in consulting firms.”

    Harris Rollinger | ED Denver EforAll

  • “We came to HumanSide for a manager training focused on providing impactful feedback while mitigating potential bias. We regularly sent managers through HumanSide’s Leading with Purpose program and wanted to supplement that training to build a robust culture where feedback was valued. HumanSide was absolutely lovely to work with in the planning of the event, flexing their level of communication to match what we, as an organization, needed. Something HumanSide identified that we hadn’t considered, was the importance of building excitement and buy-in around providing effective feedback and mitigating bias. Making this a focus, HumanSide brought our managers together to champion a new way of approaching feedback collection and delivery.”

    Cristina Ferlauto | Director of Analytics, SmarterTravel Media
