Tesmer, a consultant on strategy and organization, assists businesses and organizations in responding energetically to increasingly competitive and complex market environments and to internal challenges to growth.
After beginning his practice in 1972, he worked with local, national, and multinational corporations in over twenty different countries, including IDS Financial Services (now Ameriprise), 3M, KPMG Europe, the St. Paul Companies, Snap-On Tools, Merck Pharmaceuticals, Jostens, and currently, with several small and midsize companies.
He has consulted with many different kinds of organizations, adding value mainly by developing an understanding the dynamics influencing competition, strategy, and decision making and by leading whole system change. He managed 3M’s corporate organization development function from 1980 to 1990.
He continues an active consulting practice, is trusted advisor to several companies, and serves on boards of directors and advisory boards in both profit and nonprofit organizations.
The concepts in this book were developed while assisting organizations that were in the midst of one of the several turbulent business downturns and recessions that occurred in the last forty years. They are based on an analysis of the dynamic business and organizational factors that influence decisions, especially at critical times in the development of a company.weniger sehen
