Having worked within global organisations for 30 years, the latter half operating at Board level, it’s true to say that John has experienced his fair share of consultancies. It was in his role as Executive Vice President for the that he worked closely with DPI in 2005, 2008 and 2011.
DPI introduced John to an alternative approach to consulting. It was an approach that he liked so much…… he bought the company….. well, the European arm!
In a recent speech at the CIM’s Annual Conference, John explains what DPI does: “DPI is passionate about helping businesses to strategically out-think the competition. DPI’s proven processes take their clients on a journey that allows them to debate, evaluate and formulate their organisation’s strategy together and to build an action plan so that they can effectively deploy their game-changing strategy.”
Background to DPI
DPI was founded by Mike Robert – businessman, consultant and successful business author. Mike and his team emphatically worked with and studied the critical thinking skills of successful CEOs, from over 280 organisations, to develop DPI’s ground-breaking critical thinking processes.
These critical thinking processes have been deployed and enhanced for over 35 years by DPI partners around the world and they continue to remain the bedrock of our services.
DPI has worked with over 3,000 clients, on a repeatable basis, to help them to develop their strategy, protect themselves against disruption, innovate and manage complex situations through exceptional critical thinking skills.
DPI has recently developed an award-winning iPad app that helps organisations to re-engage with their people. This proprietary brainstorming app is known as ‘Pelotoning’.
