PIQ Strategies
People IQ that transforms teams and unlocks performance
We empower leaders to grow from the inside out, building healthy, connected and high performing teams
21%. That is the average percentage of engaged employees globally.
And it's a 438 Billion Dollar Problem.
But it doesn’t have to be that way.
The highest-performing teams in best-practice organizations see engagement levels over 70%—not just because of better tools or smarter systems, but because of intentional people strategies that unlock a high-performing culture.
Even in a world where AI is everywhere, it is People IQ that has and will continue to set great teams apart.
Team Culture That is An Asset...Not a Liability
Your team culture should not be considered a risk to your business. Yet, so often it is. Frustrating communication, confusion, under-performing managers, drama, poor decision making, lack of purpose, toxicity.
It does not have to be this way: there are solutions. PIQ Strategies seeks to be that solution for your business.
Establishing a connected team culture creates the roots that allows your business to flourish.
Boost Workplace Engagement
Manager disengagement due to lack of training and support is one of the biggest contributors to declining workforce engagement. And this is costing your organization financially.
Retain Your Talent
The loss of a single high-level employee can cost anywhere between 30% to 200% of that employee’s annual salary.
Hiring, onboarding, training, lost productivity, strain on remaining team-members, and knowledge loss are economically costly – not to mention stress.
Increase Economic Resilience
Teams that invest in strong people strategies are more economically resilient during economic downturns, according to recently released research by McKinsey.
People | Potential | Performance
People leaders matter more than ever before. But, are organizations prepared to meet the moment?
Managers Matter
Global Workforce engagement dropped due to manager disengagement. Given 70% of team engagement is attributable to the manager, this drop in engagement has a significant ripple effect.

Lack of Training
Manager development is often an after-thought. Only 44% of managers have received management training. Twice as many managers who go without training are disengaged as compared to those who do.
Development Works
Effective coaching can be taught. Managers trained in best practices experienced up to 22% higher engagement than non-participants. When manager well-being increases, team productivity increases.

"Josh was one of the most impactful leaders I’ve worked with. As my supervisor for three years, he was a trusted coach and thought partner who helped me navigate high-stakes decisions and complex team dynamics. His greatest strength is the intersection of people and systems to bring clarity and results."
- Dejuan Clanton, Associate Director DSST Public Schools
"Josh is the go-to person for any team in need of transformation - whether it's a startup group, a team looking to shift gears, or one struggling with dysfunction. His expertise lies in strategy and outcomes, demonstrated through his leadership in creating a robust school culture playbook and turning a dysfunctional team into a cohesive, high-performing unit. What truly sets Josh apart, however, is his ability to listen deeply. He understands the hopes and motivations of the people he works with, facilitating powerful listening tours and strategy sessions that focus on how humans collaborate. With Josh your team will build mutual care and understanding, driving the results you're after."
- John Clark, Founder, Best Days Education & Leadership Consulting
"As a consultant with our team, Josh collaborated with us to make the deliverables effective and supportive of our work. Our regular check-ins added a lot of illustration to the products while also helping us stay aligned to our goals. Our partnership helped me process everything so I could execute with my team in an effective manner. The project set our team up for success to implement some new processes this school year. I am very happy we got to work together and found Josh's support to be really helpful."
– MJ O'Malley, Director of Operations, DSST Public Schools
