Composed of 12,000 Technologists, Business Consultants, Designers, And Data Scientists, Slalom’s Clients Are Also Their Neighbors

Management consultants have long been a globe-trotting bunch, often staying in one location for a few meetings before dashing off to the next client. Slalom Inc., however, has quietly led a modernization of the industry over the past decade. Consultants at this next-generation professional services firm travel less than their competitors yet seem to be everywhere at once. That’s because they are. 

Founded in Seattle in 2001, Slalom operates in 49 offices across eight different countries. Their consultants will tell they are proud to work where they live, and believe the local connection allows them to show up more authentically when they partner with their clients. 

“We empower our local teams to engage with clients in their communities to bring the benefits of our global scale in a very human-centered, authentic way,” says Patrick Tyler, managing director. “That ‘Local soul, Global scale’ combo is unique in our industry.”

Ohio on the Rise

With multiple booming industry sectors and an affordable cost of living, Ohio is an attractive state to live and work. In 2019, Slalom seized on the state’s market potential by opening an office in Columbus—a bustling tech community with close proximity to the state’s other major metro areas.  

Originally from Michigan but now a longtime Columbus resident, Tyler joined the Slalom team after years of traveling the globe with another large consulting firm. With Slalom, he found the opportunity to put down professional roots in Ohio—including building a fit-for-purpose Slalom Ohio team—and engage with local business leaders. 

“With that local connection, my colleagues and I naturally feel more vested in our clients’ success,” he says. “Our teams are more motivated, our relationships feel less transactional, and that ultimately drives better outcomes and a higher level of customer satisfaction.” 

To deliver those outcomes, Slalom focuses relentlessly on the “why” for each individual client.

Members of the team view themselves as problem-solvers and employ a customizable approach to drive actionable results and long-term impacts. There is no one single template for success, so Slalom consultants tailor different combinations of their service area expertise to their clients’ specific needs.

“By working with clients to understand where they need help and what they are comfortable doing themselves, we ensure their holistic needs are being met,” Tyler says. “It helps drive the change they are looking for with a sense of urgency, but also helps upskill and empower their teams to keep the momentum going after we leave.”

Creating bespoke solutions would be difficult without understanding each client individually and knowing how their business objectives evolve over time. That’s where the local intimacy really matters. 

“Our clients are our friends and neighbors,” concludes Tyler. “We understand and appreciate their culture and learn to adapt to their unique challenges and opportunities. We all want to see our Ohio communities continue to grow and thrive.”
