About us

p4d is a consulting firm that supports organisations with a holistic view of the organisation, the change in organisational culture and leadership in times of change, transformation and consolidation.

To this end, p4d supports companies, organisations and NGOs in an international environment in all phases of organisational development and change. Supporting transformation processes and the further development of leadership and organisational culture are our core competencies. We set high standards for our work and research and publish on a wide range of topics. As a Howspace partner, we are also an implementation partner for the development, use and administration of the AI-supported transformative involvement platform Howspace. We have particular expertise in working with inter- and multinational teams and are characterised by a high level of empathy in addition to our professional competence. We always go the last mile for our clients!

Once we’ve done our job, your team will have defined, targeted and achieved goals or successfully implemented the necessary changes based on a shared, conscious culture. It’s as simple as that.

p4d was founded in 2005 with the idea of partnering with organisations (partnership for development GmbH) to support them in their respective developments.

The founders of p4d have a background in ethnology and are recognised experts on cultures. The consultants complement our expertise with their own professional or university backgrounds and many years of experience in leadership roles within organisations. Together, we are experts and companions when it comes to guiding organisations, teams and people into the future. What sets us apart is our systemic approach.

Today, we support you from our location in Bonn with a team of currently 15 consultants and employees throughout Germany and internationally. If required, we also draw on our extended network of partner companies and associates.

p4d consists of p4d | partnership for development GmbH and p4d KG, in which consultants have joined forces to provide consulting services under the p4d brand.

Some of p4d’s consultants have over 20 years of experience in supporting and advising organisations. We have worked in a wide range of sectors from industry and services to trade/logistics and public administration to development co-operation and non-profit and have worked in over 22 different countries

We are developing a society in which work is meaningful and provides identity and inspiration for the individual, efficiency and sustainability for the organisation and sustainable development for the world.

In short: …shaping working culture

We help people to develop the culture of their organisation or project in a holistic way or to drive change in order to achieve organisational goals effectively and efficiently and to shape the present and future in a meaningful way.

For us, holistic means taking into account and shaping the factual level, personal level, relationship level, group dynamics and context or world level as well as bringing different worlds together in an integrative way.

For us, meaningful means taking into account social, organisational and personal values, strengths and needs.

• We are curious about change and open to unusual solutions as well as personal and organisational development.
• We also work internally in line with our self-image: holistic, effective, efficient, transparent, healthy, high-quality and meaningful.
• We work in a self-responsible, respectful, authentic and committed manner.
• We work in partnership, at eye level, fairly and in a way that is compatible with each other and with our customers.
• We see everyone’s personal development as a basis and consciously shape it.
• We cultivate a mindful attitude in our work.
