About Our Training Offerings
Research and Analytics Training
Are you just getting in to research and analytics? We have extensive experience with research and analytics. But what is important is that we are uniquely capable of explaining these concepts in easy-to-understand language with simple-minded metaphors and colorful examples. Rely on us to walk you through these complex scientific concepts so that you can excel in your new research and analytics career.
Intimidated By Your Computer?
Are you intimidated by your computer? Are you "afraid" of your phone? Are you overwhelmed by software tools that you have been introduced to on a job? Yeah ... then we can help!
Computer Hardware Training
We specialize in teaching those who know little about computers how to deal with them. We teach based on one simple concept: "Your computer is not smarter than you ... it's just fast." Humans are the smarts ones, not the computer. Don't let it intimidate you!
Humans designed computers, remember? So as a human there is no reason why you can't become comfortable with them. We can show you how to "think" about computers. We do this by introducing you to computer hardware and the history behind it. This way, you can understand what it is, what it is best suited for, and what it isn't.
Computer Software Training
A lot of computer software functions in a similar way. There are "best practices" that software developers use when they develop software. Over time, some of these practices have ceased to be used ... making using computer software more difficult.
We can show you how to approach the use of software and also train you on basic concepts so that you understand what it is and how to use it. In addition to using whatever software you are required to use, it is always good to not only know how to use it but also "enjoy" using it.
We can teach this.
Cell Phone Training
Cell Phones used to be the size of a garage door opener and all they could do is make a phone call. There was no text messaging and certainly no internet or apps. My how things have changed!
Navigating your phone in modern times can be challenging because it is capable of doing a lot. But, just like with computers, all things aren't necessarily good things. It is important to take a wise approach to the following: (1) how you use your phone, (2) how you manage that apps on your phone, and (3) how you protect your phone
from maliciousness.
We can teach you how to do this.
About Our "Applied Economics" Offerings
What Does "Applied Offerings" Mean?
An "Applied Offering" is a service that is being offered that is generated from highly specific experience. These offerings are the result of historical experiences lived through by our consultants. Because of this fact, we can offer very specific detailed guidance in these areas.
Most consultancy is theoretical, wise, and based off of a wealth of scientific conclusions arrived at in the industry that is providing the guidance. However, for our "applied offerings" this does not apply. These offerings come with specific instructions, best practices, warnings, and avoidances that are "boots on the ground" observations taken from personal experiences ... some of the good ... some of them bad.
The result is an almost bulletproof approach to setting up businesses in these areas that avoid a lot of surprises, increase chances of early success, and provide more accurate expectations.
"Applied" vs. "Theory"
When consultations are based on theory, the information provided stems from placed like theories, test cases, proven hypotheses, and other scientific methods. However, "applied" consultations while benefiting from science also benefit from experience. "Applied" consultations and direction stem from specific experiences, best practices, warnings, and even pitfalls that have actually been experienced. "Applied" know-how is from "boots on the ground" observations taken from personal experiences. Some of these experiences have been good, some, not so much ... but all worth knowing about. Applied guidance is only available in specific areas, but the results of this guidance is a more practical and realistic approach to setting up s businesses or expanding a business.

About Our "Detail Science" Offerings
What Is "Detail Science"?
"Detail Science" is a concept created by Stephen Widener. Currently, "Detail Science" includes Data Observation and Data Reporting. Detail Science is an exclusive skillset owned by the company and only offered through Sterling Consulting. We are proud of what we created here, and offer our services to any individuals and businesses who strive to "deep dive" into their unique situations in order to discover hidden trends and new opportunities.
Data Observation
Data Observation is a way to physically observe what may be lacking or missing in a data reporting operation. Sometimes, current reporting methods being used by companies do not capture the information that is needed. Other times, current data reporting might be capturing the data but either (1) not presenting it properly or (2) not delivering the proxy information that can be acted on. In both of these cases, as well as others, there is a need to improve the data reporting infrastructure, or create it if none exists.
Data Reporting
Data Reporting is just that. Reporting. It is the way that data is organized for delivering actionable information to the stakeholders in the company. Data Reporting covers every thing from reviewing database design to testing initial reporting structures and then producing and verifying accuracy of new reports.
About Our "Spirixience" Offerings
What is Spirixience?
Spirixience is a Spiritual Science that draws from multiple disciplines and professions but most importantly draws from actual experiences. This is where Heaven intersects with Earth. For most of our human existence this intersection has probably not been important, but, given all that has been happening ... it has become more important than ever.
Spirixience's Stance Towards Sustainability
Spirixience has as its focal point preservation of Earth's vital functions. This does not mean that this science has anything to do with the Enviornmental Protection Agency, or any other groups or initiatives like animal rights groups or groups interested in cleaning the ocean. We are not affiliated with any of these groups. We stand separate in our identity and in the way we approach what we feel is needed.
Furthermore, while we feel that Earth's sustainability is important, we would never force it upon anyone or any one group. It is a choice that people can make or not make. We are here to guide others, answer questions, and help people (we hope) make the right decisions.
But we do not initiate consequences or take actions on any one or any group, regardless of the decisions that they make.
Sustainability as a Consultancy
The Science of Spirixience has a very important sustainability counterpart. We are proud that we understand this concept and can we can introduce it to others. We can provide a roadmap to navigate these complex and hard-to-understand waters by drawing on decades of experience in thinking about these concepts. We have decades of experience in thinking about how to integrate these concepts into daily life and present-day modernity.
Let us show your company how to think about these things without pointing the finger. We have examples and solutions as well as concept illustrations.
We also have research that suggests that the Earth can not sustain the current level of industrialization. Therefore, taking a position on "de-industrialization" while also attempting to maintain a viable business model is an important first step for any company interested in remaining relevant.
(Ask us for the research ... we can provide it.)
