About Salaize
Executive expertise.
Human-centered impact.
Salaize LLC is a Washington, DC-based boutique executive advisory and innovation firm founded and led by Janet E. B. Dade — a technology leader with more than 25 years of experience driving transformation across complex, global organizations.
As a principal-led practice, every engagement is led personally by Janet — clients work directly with senior expertise, not handed off to junior staff. We bring the focused accountability of a dedicated partner, with the flexibility to engage a trusted network of specialists when scope requires.
"Salaize reflects the cultural awareness, human-centered thinking, and global perspective at the heart of our work. In a field that often leads with tools and frameworks, we lead with people."
