Four core consulting engagements built around the organizational conflict challenges that standard firms aren't equipped to handle.
Leadership teams consistently underperform in their own strategic planning and alignment sessions. When the facilitator is also a stakeholder, political dynamics distort outcomes, dominant voices crowd out dissent, and agreement is performed rather than reached.
Pactus Advisory provides executive facilitation for high-stakes sessions where neutrality and structured process produce better outcomes than internal facilitation.
Organizations with $5M–$500M revenue facing strategic misalignment, leadership team conflict, or cross-functional disputes that internal meetings haven't resolved.
Most project failures aren't technical. They're governance failures, scope disputes, vendor conflicts, and stakeholder misalignment that accumulate until recovery becomes crisis management. By the time leadership acknowledges the problem, options are limited and costs are mounting.
David Kennedy's most complex engagement: restructuring a $160M cost / $120M revenue distressed technology project — replacing governance structures, renegotiating scope and delivery terms, and aligning client and vendor interests to achieve full financial and operational recovery.
Organizations with technology projects in distress, vendor relationships in crisis, or delivery programs where internal escalation has failed to produce resolution.
Growing organizations generate disputes — with vendors, clients, partners, and internally. Most handle them reactively, without consistent process or governance, until they become expensive legal or operational problems.
A Fractional Dispute Officer is a retained part-time engagement that builds the organizational capacity to prevent, manage, and resolve conflict before it escalates — at a fraction of the cost of internal headcount or legal fees.
Organizations with $5M–$100M revenue that manage multiple vendor and client relationships, are growing rapidly, or have experienced recurring disputes that consumed significant management attention.
Most managers have never been trained to identify, de-escalate, or resolve conflict constructively. They either avoid it until it explodes or escalate immediately to HR or legal — both of which are expensive, slow, and damaging to relationships and culture.
Pactus Advisory's conflict resolution workshops build practical, applicable skills that reduce the organizational cost of conflict at every level.
Organizations investing in manager development, experiencing recurring team or departmental conflict, or preparing for rapid growth where conflict management capacity will be tested.
Most engagements begin with a free 30-minute consultation. No pitch, no pressure — just an honest conversation about whether Pactus Advisory is the right fit.
