A few words about our team of consultants
Gordian Management was founded by Michèle Longpré, whose expertise has been demonstrated many times over in the implementation of multi-stakeholder projects, particularly in Europe, the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), the United States, Canada, Africa, the Middle East and China.
Many types of clients, including multinational corporations, governments and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) have benefited from our project management services in multicultural and multidisciplinary environments.
Gordian Management is also a partner network that provides organizations and businesses with concrete methods to implement their development strategies while involving all stakeholders.
Our approach
Our strength lies in our ability to precisely identify the target of a project and to generate consensus from partners and stakeholders.
This is done using several strategies including:
- Establishing a diagnosis: convergence or divergence between the mission and the vision, detecting obstacles, problem-solving.
- La définition d’un dénominateur commun à tous les partenaires et optimisation des capacités d’investissement des ressources de chacune des parties.
- Defining a common ground for all partners and optimizing the investment capacities of each of the parties’ resources.
- Specifying the role of each of the partners, institutions and individuals.
- Assigning leadership to a qualified partner or individual for their ability to take on the project and to represent all partners on the project.
- Support in all project areas: process analysis, engineering, training of instructors and different stakeholders, budget and administration management, risk management.
This approach enables the formation of committed, high-performance, task-focused and results-oriented teams. Harnessing the immense potential created as a result contributes to the development, credibility and value of partners in local, national and international markets.
