Corporate Services
Business Consulting, Coaching and Seminars
Most employees are promoted because of their technical skills.
We help them sharpen their interpersonal skills.
Anchor Counseling - Corporate Services
We help businesses effectively address interpersonal challenges and implement solutions to develop and retain talent, increase efficiency, and improve profitability.
Anchor Counseling Services, Corporate Services Division, works with CEOs, business owners, and executive teams to discuss, clarify and diagnose root causes for disruptive conflicts between top performers which can cause a toxic work environment.
Sometimes business leaders call these “personality conflicts.” They are not. They are interpersonal communication problems…which can cost a business thousands of dollars and result in significant losses and high stress for all involved.
To begin the process, the consultant meets with business leaders and then individually, with the team members to openly discuss and address these issues. The goal is to collaborate with all staff to create and implement an effective plan of action toward resolution in a timely fashion. This can have a massive impact, resulting in retention of high performers, improved job satisfaction and productivity.
Ask yourself these questions:
Do you like the work you do but have issues with a coworker or a direct report?
Do you walk on eggshells around a coworker who seems to have "personality conflicts" with you and/or other employees?
Are you a CEO, COO, executive team member, or a business owner who dreads coming to work because of interpersonal conflicts?
Have you ever said "I'm tired of babysitting. Why don't they just act like adults and all get along?"
Do you tolerate aggressive workplace behaviors because you are short-staffed?
If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, and you want a more productive, less stressful work environment, call us.
We utilize our expertise in the areas of psychology, emotional intelligence, active listening, problem-solving, and assertive communication skills to help enhance your company's effectiveness, employee satisfaction and retention.

Client Testimonials
CliftonLarsonAllen LLP
"Pam has provided a variety of training programs to us over a long period of time and the quality of the presentations has always been exceptional. We gained confidence that whenever she spent time with a group, the message would be delivered very professionally and efficiently, it would be absorbed by the group and it would provide insights and tools that would be used for many years to come. What started out as a trial presentation to our staff, turned into a recurring training process to help us shape our culture and improve the ways we worked together. We eventually just put Pam on a recurring time slot and then agreed on the next topic for her training. We had a much stronger team because of the leadership provided by Pam."

"I had the opportunity to participate in a Stress Management training that Pam facilitated. It was outstanding! I expected to talk about identifying stressors and how to make healthy choices. What I didn't expect is how Pam helped the entire audience slow down, listen and take notice of small things. For us Driver personality types, this seminar can be difficult initially but it's exactly what we need. Give her sessions a shot, I guarantee it's worth the time."
-Steve Scherer, VP Sales
Benefits Services Group
"I recently attended one of Pam's stress management workshops. I was impressed not only with her ability to tailor her content to the current needs of the group, but also with how well she engaged the audience consisting primarily of men who worked at a manufacturing firm. Her presentation style is friendly, approachable, and interactive. She shared practical information and lead the group through a number of skill building activities including deep breathing, muscle relaxation and a creative mindfulness exercise (involving Dove dark chocolate). Several participants went out of their way after the session to tell her that they found the session to be very informative. Pam is an extremely polished professional and clearly loves what she does."
