Gatts Consulting provides Fractional Leadership Development, Coaching, and Strategic Advisory solutions to small and medium sized organizations.
who we are
Gatts Consulting provides leadership development services at a fraction of the cost to organizations that aren’t large enough to justify a full-time hire. We function as your outsourced training department by designing your leadership development strategy, creating customized curriculum, facilitating learning experiences, measuring outcomes, and providing ongoing support.
As a certified Small Minority-Owned Business based in Virginia with 15+ years of expertise, research-backed frameworks, and a scholar-practitioner approach, we help mission-driven organizations build the leadership capabilities their strategic vision demands—at 20-30% of the cost of a full-time hire.
Our clients typically:
- Are small to mid-sized organizations
- Need consistent leadership development, but lack internal bandwidth
- Want measurable outcomes, not just training activities
- Value strategic partnership over transactional vendor relationships
We offer flexible engagement models:
- Quarterly workshops for foundational skill-building
- Monthly coaching circles for real-time application and peer learning
- Comprehensive programs blending workshops, coaching, and executive development
- Strategic partnerships with full integration into your leadership team
why choose us?
Most mid-sized organizations face the same challenge: they need systematic leadership development to achieve their strategic goals, but they can’t justify hiring a full-time Director of Learning & Development at $150K+ annually.
One-off workshops create temporary awareness but no lasting change. Random training vendors deliver programs but don’t understand your culture or integrate with your strategy.
That’s where we come in.
We learn your culture, attend your meetings (as appropriate), and become part of your organizational fabric. Think of this as a partnership.
We think about your multi-year development needs, not just the next workshop. Your strategic vision drives our curriculum design.
We’re accountable for building leadership capability and measurable business results—reduced turnover, stronger team performance, better strategic execution—not just delivering sessions.
15+ years of expertise, proprietary frameworks, and a track record spanning Fortune 500 companies, government agencies, and mission-driven organizations.
Start small, scale based on results, adjust as your needs evolve. You maintain the flexibility that a full-time hire doesn’t offer.
You get the expertise of a seasoned Director of Leadership Development at 20-25% of the cost, with immediate impact and zero hiring risk.
We work with organizations that recognize leadership development isn’t an expense—it’s an investment in their capacity to execute strategy, retain talent, and sustain growth.
