In the various positions I held through the years, a base formula for success accompanied me: work safe, work smart, follow procedures, and ask plenty of questions. There is absolutely no room for shortcuts in our business. I cannot say enough about the importance of safety and structure in the continued development of a company.

Welcome to pdp Dynamics

Our performance driven process will improve your business.

At PDP Dynamics our approach has 5 phases:

  1. Entry and Contracting

  2. Discovery and Dialogue

  3. Feedback and Decision to Act

  4. Engagement and Implementation

  5. Extension, Recycle or Closure

1.

Entry and
Contracting

Entry begins the relationship between consultant and client organization, testing the fit of consultant’s skills and values with the organization’s needs. Contracting continues the process of clarifying the expectations of the consultation efforts (goals, etc.) and desired characteristics of the client-consultant relationship.

2.

Discovery and Dialogues

Discovery is a systematized approach to gaining information about the organization
(collected in a variety of ways.) Dialogue is a collaborative process
between the consultant and client organization members, to derive
meaning from the information gathered.

3.

Feedback and Decision to Act

Formally the client and consultant come to a mutual understanding about the meaning of the analysis and the areas of focus for the next consulting activities. The client decides what to act upon and with the consultant’s help how to do that.

4.

Engagement and Implementation

Specific activities in service of the project’s goals are carried out in the client organization. These may be led by the consultant, supported by the consultant, and/or accomplished by the organizational members alone.

5.

Extension,
Recycle, or
Closure

Once the activities are completed, consultant and client look at the progress compared to the intentions. If the work is completed, this is the time to celebrate that completion and say job well done. If there are still actions to be taken, this is a decision point about extending the collaborative relationship built between the consultant and the client.
