Schroeder will share his insights on how businesses can keep pace with the rapidly changing marketplace and find ways to grow and transform themselves to succeed in an uncertain economy.

“I’m looking forward to discussing how our accelerated transformation practice can help businesses and government organizations – of all sizes – with a multi-step process to improve mission results,” said Schroeder.

Schroeder said Tunnell Consulting delivers a dramatic team-based approach to client projects, integrating some 45 years of expert knowledge to design and implement the right solutions. “Our Transformation Practice area is geared to help the senior government leader and others dramatically improve operational excellence and results,” he said.

Schroeder also leads the transformation practice that draws upon his 20 years of large scale organizational change experience. He has been a practice leader for Accelerated Corporate Transformation at Price Waterhouse Coopers LLC. The chief change executive at several Fortune 100 companies and he has taught organizational development and leadership development at three major universities.

In view of the new challenges to government presented by both the new administration and the national crisis the country now faces, Schroeder said Tunnell has decided to expand its organizational transformation services to government agencies as well.

“While there are substantial differences between government and commercial organizations, many of the same principles apply. We believe that we can contribute to the success of government in meeting the challenges of the 21st century, and we want to do our part,” said Schroeder.

The invitation-only Business of Politics Summit will be held on July 23, 2009 at the offices of Penn, Schoen & Berland Associate’s corporate office in Washington, D.C.
