4D Associates International recognizes the growing demand for high quality Professional and Organizational Development (OD) initiatives offering specific methodologies and techniques that produce measurable and sustainable results for organizations of all sizes. Traditional OD, however, is based on an old world paradigm that is primarily top-down… the belief that what is good for the company will eventually be good for the employees. 4D Associates draws upon a different philosophy, recognizing that an organization’s greatest potential is always in direct proportion to the personal and professional fulfillment of the individuals they employ. We expand traditional OD methodologies by first focusing on the critical foundations of individual competency and effectiveness combined with small group achievement. When employees and managers at all levels experience high degrees of personal growth, creative autonomy, emotional satisfaction and self-actualization their personal mission becomes synchronized with their company’s mission and they in turn forward their organization towards achieving its highest levels of productivity, efficiency and profitability sparking new contributions to society as well unique global innovations.
