Real Results, Without the Noise

Our Project Management Philosophy

At The Persimmon Group, we believe in making project management work
for you—not the other way around. 

Here's How We See It

Our focus is simple: deliver practical solutions that move your business forward—efficiently, effectively, and with purpose.

We believe cookie-cutters are for cookies, not projects .

Sure, we know the PMBOK Guide® inside and out—we even contributed to it! But we don’t let it box us in. We mix industry best practices, new innovations, your experiences, and our expertise to find solutions that fit you.

We believe finishing a project isn’t the same as winning.

Congrats, you completed your project…but did it actually make a difference? In every engagement, we start by helping you nail down what real success looks like. Then, we’ll work together to get it done. It’s not about ticking boxes; it’s about igniting breakthroughs.

We believe in quick, continuous wins, not just long-term promises.

Why wait years to see results? Our Scaffolded Growth­ approach means you’ll be seeing positive changes early and often. We frequently use small experiments or pilots to deliver these early results and learn more about what will and won’t work for you before you pour resources into a significant transformation.

We believe in fixing the engine before adding a spoiler.

Tools are great, but they’re the last thing we look at. First, we dig into your strategy, culture, structure, people, and processes. It’s like tuning up your car. No point in racing stripes if the engine is sputtering.

We believe in cutting red tape, not corners.

Our mission? Eliminate hard work that gets you nowhere. While respecting regulatory requirements and other non-negotiables, we work to trim the fat from your processes, leaving only what adds real value. No more drowning in paperwork or endless meetings—just lean, mean project machines.

We believe change management isn’t optional.

We include change management in everything we do. Even the best ideas fall flat if your team isn’t ready for them. We’re not just updating your playbook; we’re getting your team excited to run the new plays.

We believe happy teams are awesome teams.

Let’s face it. If your team dreads every project, something’s wrong. We keep an eye on team morale because satisfied employees don’t just do better work—they stick around too.

Here's How We Operate

At The Persimmon Group, we believe in clear, actionable strategies that focus on delivering measurable outcomes, not just hours on a timesheet. When you work with us, you get a partner who’s committed to your success, not the next invoice.

Transparent Partnerships and Seamless Onboarding

You'll meet your actual project team before signing. The team you meet during the proposal phase is who you'll be working with. If we need to maintain flexibility, we'll communicate that upfront. No surprises, just transparent partnerships from day one.

You'll experience a smooth transition from proposal to delivery. Our business development team doesn't disappear once the deal is signed. The handoff to our delivery team is a supported process, ensuring continuity and a seamless start to your project.

Clear Communication and Continuous Improvement

You can expect proactive, honest communication. Good news, bad news—you'll hear it all from us and hear it early. We believe in preventing surprises through open, timely dialogue. Consider us your project's early warning system.

You'll have regular opportunities to provide feedback. We actively seek your input throughout the engagement, using techniques like "stop/start/keep" to continuously refine our approach. Your feedback isn't just welcomed; it's integral to our process.

Value-Driven, Focused Delivery

You'll receive concise, impactful deliverables. Our documents won't win any "heaviest binder" contests, and we're proud of that. We focus on creating clear, valuable content that drives action. Quality over quantity, every time.

You can count on our focus remaining on your current project. Our priority is delivering exceptional results on your current engagement, not angling for the next one.

We're here to move the needle on your goals, not our sales targets. You'll experience tangible results early. We don't believe in waiting until the end to deliver value. Our approach always identifies quick wins so you can immediately see positive changes.
