March, 2010
Congratulations to Gerard Fleming and Jennie Cunningham, both members of Edward Jones’ Organizational Effectiveness department, on completing the PMC certification process for coaching case groups. Case groups are a key feature of “Candor with Respect: Skills for Difficult Conversations,” a professional development workshop created and led by Paul Paese (of PMC) and offered on a regular basis to general partners, leaders, and associates at Edward Jones. Gerard has a PhD in industrial/organizational (I/O) psychology from Saint Louis University, and Jennie is nearing completion of her PhD in I/O psychology at the University of Missouri – St. Louis. Paul is extremely pleased Gerard and Jennie are now full-fledged members of the Candor with Respect team, as they both bring tremendous knowledge and skill to the coaching role.

February, 2010
PMC president, Paul Paese, returned this month to his former place of employment, the University of Missouri – St. Louis. Paul was the invited speaker in the monthly colloquium series hosted by UMSL’s doctoral program in Industrial/Organizational psychology (a program that Paul himself once directed). He gave a talk entitled “Interdependence in the Workplace and Organizational Consulting,” which spurred lively discussion among the many graduate students and faculty members who attended. Paul was grateful for the warm welcome back and the enthusiastic response to his presentation, and he was happy to see that the I/O program continues to grow and thrive.

January, 2010
The Washington University School of Law has retained Paul Paese, of PMC, to teach their business negotiations course for second and third year students in the J.D. program in the Spring ’10 semester. The purpose of the course is to augment students’ legal education with state-of-the-art training in business negotiation and dispute resolution. Participants in the course develop core skills in bargaining and conflict resolution that complement the technical skills learned in other law school courses. The Law School is extremely pleased that Paul has once again agreed to teach this course, as this offering contributes to the school’s reputation as one of the finest law schools in the country.

As this challenging year draws to close, we would like to thank the many clients, colleagues, and partners who played a part in the continued success of Paese Management Consulting over the past year. Despite the economic downturn, it’s been a productive year at PMC, and we know our continued success will depend as much as ever on the relationships we have built and the creative possibilities that arise through partnership and collaboration. Wishing you the happiest of holidays and all the best in 2010!

November, 2009
At their November meeting, the Emergent Leadership Initiative (ELI) welcomed Paul Paese, of PMC, as guest speaker. ELI is a certificate program organized by a consortium of business and community leaders in the Kirkwood-Des Peres region, and sponsored by the Kirkwood-Des Peres Chamber of Commerce. Despite its regional affiliation, ELI draws participants from the entire St. Louis metropolitan area. Paul was one of two management experts invited to speak on “The Character of a Leader.” Presentations were followed by a lively question and answer session that proved to be eye-opening and educational for participants and speakers alike.

October, 2009
PMC owner, Paul Paese, accepted an invitation this month from the Olin Business School at Washington University to teach at Brookings Executive Education (BEE) in Washington, D.C. The Brookings Institute and Washington University recently formed a partnership that enables Brookings to utilize Olin Business School faculty for purposes of teaching and managing executive education courses at BEE. Paul will be teaching “The Empowered Executive,” a 2-day course that builds executives’ knowledge and skills in conflict management, negotiation, leadership, team decision-making, and results-based dialogue.
