In the past, online surveys and assessments were too technical, time consuming, and expensive. Technology has changed all that. We use the latest web-based tools to connect you with the people who matter to your success - employees, customers, and communities.
Performance in Others' Eyes
We can’t see ourselves work. 360 feedback reveals the impact we have on peers, direct reports, co-workers, and the “boss”. Easy-to-use, custom-designed, on-line 360 tools should be part of every personal and leadership development process.
Better Data = Better Decisions
Employees, customers, investors, communities – what stakeholders think matters to your business. Custom designed and well administered on-line surveys help you move from questions, to answers, to action, then better results.

"Free” is not always the bargain it appears to be. Those DIY survey sites and off-the-shelf solutions may seem practical, but come with hidden costs, challenges, and limitations that can cost you time and money.
To use a "free" survey site yourself, someone needs to learn the technology. Trust us, that takes time, more so for infrequent users who may need to re-train each time. Inexperienced users also make errors that take time to fix and can damage the credibility of your efforts in the eyes of respondents. We do this work all the time, learning constantly how to do it better, faster, and cheaper. Let your people keep doing what they do best, while we do what we do best on your behalf.
Data collection is a complex task. To really hear what your stakeholders are thinking or feeling, you may need need multiple question types and scales, sophisticated paging and branching, and advanced data analysis to really drill down into each respondent's experience. “Free” doesn’t get you all those bells and whistles. To access them, you must "upgrade" to a paid plan, taking on recurring fees that add up over time. With us, all the options are included, and we know how to use them.
When your internal staff ask “difficult” questions, they don’t always get the “real” answer. As a 3rd party, we can ask the same questions with less risk of provoking concerns regarding confidentiality or the consequences of responding. Confident in the promise of anonymity we offer, your respondents are more likely to tell us how they think and feel.
What started out as a "free" survey or assessment can easily end up with you paying recurring fees for a paid plan, spending time to learn and use unfamiliar technology, and correcting errors that cost you time and credibility. After 20+ years building online surveys and assessments, we can offer you all the bells whistles and do in hours what you or your staff might take days or weeks to do. And, with all humility, we’ll probably do it better, faster, and cheaper.

Randy was a founding partner of Key Consulting Group. Throughout his 40+ year professional career, he has designed and facilitated leadership, team, and organization development programs as both an internal and external consultant.
His passion for training and coaching front-line leaders led him to seek more effective means to assess their impact on the job. 20+ years ago, he was an early adopter of online tools to conduct 360 assessments, behavioural profiling, and engagement surveys. Eventually those efforts turned into Corporate Compass, a vehicle to offer the services he values to his clients and associates.
Clients (mostly) appreciate Randy's direct approach, progressive ideas, and coaching skills. Count on him to tell you exactly what he thinks, and do what he says he will do.
He lives in Calgary with his wife, Kim, sharing 5 children and 4 grandchildren. When not parenting or curling, he's probably flying his paraglider as high and as far as possible, or sharing a beer with pilot friends while exaggerating his exploits.
