Centennial Speaker Series Sponsor for March 17, 2014
Citygate Associates, LLC is a management consulting company co-founded nearly 25 years ago by David DeRoos to serve state and local governments. Today, Citygate serves 20-30 clients at a time across the Western United States, including for-profit, non-profit, and public sector agencies. We provide solutions for leadership, management, operational, analytical, and public policy challenges.
Unlike many organizations that hire for skills and then fire for character, Citygate hires for character and then trains for skills. This strategy is rooted in the premise that character is the leading predictor of human behavior. Watching the internal success of this strategy since the firm’s beginning, Citygate then offered an Integrated Character Platform as a service line to its full array of clients. Organizational results among our clients include dramatically improved good hire rates and reduced turnover. Attention to a purposefully designed organizational culture by deploying this approach improves team work, communications, customer service and profit. In short, the consideration of character leads to greater predictability in human capital decision making!
