Let’s begin with a conversation.
What We Do
We Bridge the Gap Between Academia and Action
TCG exists to make high-quality research usable for real-world decision-makers. Most organizations lack the time or expertise to sift through thousands of academic articles, analyze study quality, and determine relevance to their specific needs. That is where we come in.
We conduct the research audit for you — navigating psychological journals, economic models, systems theory, and organizational science to identify what is credible, replicable, and applicable. We then translate these insights into operational strategies, leadership frameworks, and evidence-based recommendations that save time and reduce the cost of internal research.
Our Core Services:
Evidence-Based Strategy
We work with senior teams to align long-term planning with validated research in behavioral economics, complexity science, and organizational theory. Our deliverables include annotated decision briefs, literature-backed frameworks, and strategic roadmaps that anticipate resistance and support adoption.Leadership & Decision Architecture
We help teams improve how decisions are structured, made, and communicated. Using findings from behavioral science and trust research, we equip leaders to manage uncertainty, reduce cognitive overload, and build decision-making systems that align with their values and incentives.Organizational Innovation & Change
Whether you are designing a new product team or leading enterprise-wide change, we bring research-backed tools to structure the transition. Our change models draw from peer-reviewed studies in motivation, systems resilience, innovation culture, and learning organizations.
Why TCG?
We Do the Hard Research So You Don’t Have To
Consulting firms often build their models in-house, based on anecdotal evidence or historical intuition. We believe the answers to today’s most complex problems already exist in the data — if you know where to look.
At TCG, we are not theorists. We are translators. We take on the difficult work of evaluating academic research, weighing competing findings, and surfacing insights that hold up under scrutiny. Our work lowers the cost of in-house research and equips your team with evidence strong enough to support confident action.
We operate with four guiding principles:
Rigor over rhetoric: Every insight is backed by data, not opinion.
Accessibility without dilution: We make complex ideas easy to use, not simplistic.
Context before prescription: We don’t apply one-size-fits-all frameworks.
Research is leverage: When done right, it saves time, reduces error, and strengthens outcomes.
“We specialize in converting research into recommendations. Our job is to reduce complexity, improve credibility, and help your team justify its decisions with confidence.”
Real World Science
Leveraging Science to Build a People-First HR Strategy
Modern HR leaders are uniquely positioned to turn scientific insight into strategic advantage. By applying behavioral science, organizational psychology, and people analytics, HR can design systems that prioritize employee wellbeing, inclusion, and performance, without sacrificing business outcomes.
Google’s Project Aristotle famously revealed that psychological safety is the single most important factor in effective teams, reshaping how managers support collaboration (source). At Microsoft, HR partnered with researchers to design a hybrid work model rooted in neuroscience and behavioral data, improving focus and connection across distributed teams (source). Deloitte has used behavioral nudges and A/B testing in its performance management redesign, leading to measurable gains in fairness, retention, and feedback quality (source).
When HR leverages evidence-based tools including job crafting, inclusive hiring algorithms, or team-level diagnostics—it sends a clear message: people are not a cost to manage but a system to support. This shift doesn’t just feel better. It performs better.
