Trusted Referral Partner
Your clients trust you. When they need consulting, training, or research services that fall outside your scope—or where conflict-of-interest considerations apply—you need a partner you can recommend with confidence.
Nordic Associates LLC serves as a referral resource for accounting firms, law firms, consulting practices, and other professional services organizations. When you can't take on an engagement directly, we deliver work that reflects well on your recommendation.
Conflict-free delivery: We provide training, coaching, and advisory services that complement—rather than conflict with—your existing client relationships and professional obligations.
Credentialed expertise: PhD-level research and publications in leading business journals. Your clients get substance, not just polish.
Reliable quality: When you refer a client, your reputation is on the line. We understand that, and we deliver accordingly.
Flexible structure: Direct client engagement, collaborative projects, or preferred provider arrangements—whatever works for your practice.

Off-the-shelf training programs waste time. We design custom learning experiences that address your organization's specific challenges and opportunities.
Our programs cover leadership development, strategic thinking, organizational effectiveness, and cross-cultural business practices. Each engagement is grounded in current research and tailored to your context—whether that's a half-day workshop or a multi-session executive program.
We bring particular depth in Nordic-American business practices, helping organizations bridge Scandinavian and American approaches to leadership and strategy.

Leadership is learned, not inherited. Our coaching engagements help senior executives develop the judgment, skills, and perspective they need to navigate complex situations.
We take a research-informed approach to coaching—drawing on what we know about leadership effectiveness, organizational dynamics, and individual development. The result is coaching that's grounded in evidence, not just intuition.

Sometimes you need an independent perspective. We conduct rigorous research on markets, competitive dynamics, organizational challenges, and strategic questions—delivered in a format decision-makers can act on.
Our research practice is led by a PhD with publications in leading academic journals. That means you get the methodological rigor of academic research with the practical focus of consulting.
