ľ¹Ï¸£ÀûÓ°ÊÓ

USG consultancy works closely with clients on solutions to complex issues in the public domain. The approach of the Utrecht ľ¹Ï¸£ÀûÓ°ÊÓ School of Governance (USG) is characterised by a combination of public administration and organisational science insights, social involvement and practical applicability. In our consultancy work, themes from public administration and organisational science such as professionalism, governance, organisational development, innovation, public leadership and accountability are intertwined with major social issues such as digitisation, sustainability, equality and inclusion, and safety. We work for a broad group of public and semi-public organisations in healthcare, education, sports and culture, central and local governments, international governmental organisations and service organisations.

High-quality advice and applied academic research

In these areas, USG consultancy provides high-quality advice and applied academic research, in collaboration with clients and partners. USG consultancy has over 25 years of experience with projects for a wide range of organisations, such as change processes for organisations, policy evaluations, guidance of professionalisation, tailor-made leadership programmes, training & coaching, interim management and more.

USG consultancy is strong in tackling complex issues. Due to the close connection with the high-quality research of the School of Governance, USG consultancy stands for thorough, reliable and innovative research. The consultants are familiar with the latest scientific insights and at the same time able to come up with concrete, feasible solutions.

Interaction and interdisciplinarity

In close collaboration with the client, we pay explicit attention to the context and the formulation of the central questions of the assignment. When using specific methods, maintaining and creating support among those involved in the organization is one of the important starting points. There is also ample attention for the (inter)human aspects of work processes keeping the interests of the organization in mind. Finally, USG consultancy approaches issues in an interdisciplinary way, i.e. from both a management and an organisational science perspective. Where desired, other disciplines from Utrecht ľ¹Ï¸£ÀûÓ°ÊÓ are involved. In our experience, this leads to enlightening insights.
