それで
それで is the spoken connective and will report any follow-on at all, a decision the speaker then made included; その結果 reports the OUTCOME of an effort or a process, so the sentence before it has to describe one.
そのため
そのため looks forward from a cause and is happy with a standing state before it (雪ゆきが多おおい地域ちいきだ。そのため…); その結果 looks back from an outcome and needs a process that ran its course before it — an effort, an investigation, a sustained change — which is why 話はなし合あいを重かさねた。その結果、 works and a bare description of the weather does not.
によって
によって marks the cause as a NOUN inside the sentence and puts it before the effect (話はなし合あいによって解決かいけつした); その結果 needs the cause already told as its own sentence and states only the outcome, so restating the same cause after it only repeats you.
