Changefirst is pleased to announce that it has signed a partnership agreement with leading organisational change management and training company Dextera in the Latin American market.  Under the terms of the deal, Dextera will represent Changefirst in Latin America by providing consultancy, training, workshops and certification in PCI (People Centred Implementation) in the local market.

"Dextera and Changefirst have methodologies in change management that closely complement each other" explains Marcia Baggio of Dextera.  "Both have a focus on preparing and engaging people being impacted by change.  However, PCI works especially well at both a strategic and tactical level whilst Dextera's methodology focuses more on the operational work and the daily follow-up of a change project.  The partnership has a real synergy because Dextera currently operates in the are of change consulting and Changefirst provides the consulting, training and certification which allows companies and individuals to develop the capability to deliver change for themselves".

David Miller, Managing Director of Changefirst, said "the Brazilian market is one of the fastest growing in the world and we are delighted to be working with Dextera.  The pace of change creates a natural demand to manage change within organisations and Dextera has an extremely impressive reputation and record of growth in Brazil.  There are many similarities in terms of our approach and we see the partnership as boosting the growth of both companies in Brazil and Latin America as a whole".
