HR Consulting Firms Serving the Pittsburgh Area

HR Consulting That Works the Way You Do

As one of the leading HR consulting firms in Pittsburgh, Exude delivers tailored solutions that reflect your team’s needs, not a one-size-fits-all template. We specialize in:

• HR outsourcing (HRO): From day-to-day support to full-function outsourcing, we become an extension of your HR team. Our HR outsourcing in Pittsburgh helps you stay compliant, organized and proactive.
• Compensation consulting in Pittsburgh: Our data-driven approach to compensation studies ensures your pay structures support retention, equity and your overall talent strategy.
• HRIS consulting: We help you select, implement and optimize human resources information systems that streamline your processes and improve data visibility.
• Performance management: Build better systems for employee growth, accountability and engagement with our guidance.
• Strategic HR advisory: For leaders looking to align HR with business goals, we offer thought partnership and experienced insight.

Inclusion and Belonging That Builds a Better Culture

Creating a workplace where people feel seen, valued and included starts with intention and the right partner. Our diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging (DEIB) consultants work closely with leaders to design and deliver solutions that promote sustainable change.

• DEIB strategic advisory and consulting: Assess your current state and build a roadmap for the future through journey mapping, leadership preparedness, program and policy assessments, revisions and more. We meet you where you are without judgment.
• DEIB training: Equip your team with the knowledge and skills needed to create more gender-inclusive environments through surveys, focus groups, interviews and conversations about pronouns in the workplace. Our approach to DEI in Pittsburgh is thoughtful, strategic and always aligned with your culture.
• DEIB data collection: We offer DEIB data collection services, including surveys and focus groups, to help organizations gather employee feedback, identify areas for improvement and create effective action plans — while ensuring confidentiality and mitigating bias.
• Inclusive Culture Alignment: Our Inclusive Culture Alignment service uses a self-assessment tool to evaluate 15 dimensions of organizational culture, facilitates conversations to align perceptions and helps organizations prioritize actions to become more inclusive and equitable, ultimately driving better job performance and reducing turnover.
• DEIB facilitated conversations: DEIB facilitated conversations provide structured discussions led by experienced facilitators on topics like race, gender and neurodiversity. They’re designed to expand participants’ knowledge and perceptions beyond traditional training, fostering engagement and mitigating bias in the workplace.

Coaching and HR Training in Pittsburgh for Strong Leaders

We believe leadership is a journey, not a destination, and no one gets there alone. That’s why we offer supportive, hands-on development for leaders at every stage. Our coaching programs are designed for emerging leaders, growing managers, and executives alike, providing space to reflect, build confidence, and lead with purpose.

For teams, we offer practical learning through training shorts and interactive sessions like Beyond Compliance and HR Made Simple, making complex topics approachable and useful. We also design deeper learning experiences, such as The Art of Convention and Leading in a Diverse Hybrid Workplace, that challenge leaders to think differently, connect meaningfully and show up intentionally.

If you’re looking for HR training that meets your people where they are and helps them grow into the leaders your organization needs, we’d love to be part of that journey.
