I’ve had time, recently, to take a step back and think about the work I've been doing. Thinking led to note taking and eventually I developed a flexible, workable, methodology based on my experiences.

What I noticed on almost every project in 12 years, regardless of industry or those that were not-for-profit, is that there is a growing divide in most organizations with regards to organizational capabilities, culture, common understanding, technologies, methods, communications, etc.

Organizations for the first time can have up to four generations (WWII, Baby Boom, Gen X, Gen Y) working together. Organizations are very rarely taking the time to find out how and if this dynamic can work, or if there are opportunities because of this dynamic that aren't being explored.

If organizations neglect learning about their people their strategies will always be dead at the door and most of their projects will suffer. Many projects are nowhere near ready to launch when the users / customers / suppliers / stakeholders are not in sync with the fundamental changes that a strategy or critical project brings.

Other organizations, due to rapid growth, don’t have a method to take inventory of their people and processes and risk their growth when it comes time to make critical decisions with regards to people, process, technology, and overall strategies.

I do not like methodologies, because I find them to rigid, slow to react, and inflexible, but realized that something was needed.

So, I came up with a flexible, people-centric, process-based methodology that I am implementing at organizations that are suffering from the types of issues described above. It takes into account people, process, technology, and strategy and provides a culturally aligned way to help any organization achieve its goals.
