Steve Cohen

Steve M. Cohen, Ed.D., CMC is President/Partner of Labor Management Advisory Group, Inc. and HR Solutions: On-Call, both based in Kansas City, MO.
Often described as a “mess management” expert for his ability to skillfully resolve people problems for vulnerable organizations, Dr. Cohen is a well-known national authority who protects companies from HR bombshells that include issues of sexual harassment, regulatory compliance, motivational management, workforce diversity, employee training, and bottom-line productivity.
Dr. Cohen has nearly 40 years of specialized experience safeguarding businesses and nonprofit agencies with staff sizes that range from two to 17,000 employees.
Typically contacted when a company is in crisis, facing potential lawsuits, or when immediate preventative measures must be executed, Dr. Cohen quickly and adeptly assesses company infrastructures and implements management changes that align with legal/regulatory requirements. He frequently serves as the temporary chief Human Resources officer for organizations that lack the appropriate internal staff to handle complicated or highly sensitive personnel dilemmas.
Dr. Cohen has a MA in Public Administration from Central Michigan University, an Ed.D. in Educational Psychology from Northern Illinois University, and received certification in Alternative Dispute Resolution from DePaul University, School of Law.
 
He is the author of “Mess Management: Lessons from a Corporate Hit Man” and hosts a weekly radio program in Kansas City called The Exchange, which features topics and guests from the world of business.
