VISSEN PRAXIS
‘knowledge in practice’

Most consulting starts with a service.
Ours starts with a question: what does your organization actually need to perform better?

Vissen Praxis helps leaders find the real constraint — in processes, projects, communication, or people — and builds the practical capability to remove it. Not binders of recommendations: working documents, functioning processes, and teams that operate differently.

Our approach

How We Work

1

Diagnose

We start with your goals and find where performance actually breaks down — which is not always where it appears to.

2

Design

We build a right-sized engagement, from a 90-minute working session to a multi-day onsite program.

3

Deliver

Hands-on facilitation that produces real work product — plans, maps, documents, and decisions, made in the room.

4

Sustain

Follow-up structures, coaching, and advisory support so the improvement holds after we leave.

Business optimization

Service Areas

Engagements are scoped to the need, not a package. These are the areas where clients most often ask us to work.

Project Management Training & Capability

From foundational training to hands-on planning labs where teams build real project plans, schedules, and Gantt charts — with optional ongoing project guidance to keep initiatives moving.

Process Mapping & Improvement

Focused working sessions that map how work actually flows, expose bottlenecks and rework, and redesign processes your team can run the next day.

Strategic Planning Facilitation

Structured facilitation that takes leadership teams from ambition to an actionable plan — priorities, owners, timelines, and the follow-up cadence to hold them.

Executive & Professional Communication

Sharpening how leaders and teams communicate: professional documents, focused and succinct messaging, and eliminating the noise that dilutes influence.

Relationship & Stakeholder Management

Practical approaches to managing the relationships work depends on — internal partners, external stakeholders, and the conversations that keep both productive.

Where we work

Industries We Serve

Medical Device & Life Sciences Government & Public Sector Community & Reentry Organizations Manufacturing & Regulated Industries Professional Services Nonprofit & Community Development

Our methods travel well. Experience in highly regulated environments — where documentation, compliance, and complex stakeholder approval are daily realities — shapes how we work everywhere else.

Signature program

Onsite Project Management Training

Four levels of depth, delivered at your location. Shorter formats build shared language; longer engagements shift from learning about project management to doing it — on your organization's actual projects.

LEVEL 1

Project Management Essentials Half day

A fast-moving introduction for teams new to formal project management: the project lifecycle, roles and responsibilities, defining scope and success criteria, and a shared vocabulary the whole team can use immediately.

Your team leaves with: a common framework and a one-page project definition template.

LEVEL 2

The Core Toolkit Full day

The working toolkit of a project lead, practiced on exercises drawn from your environment: work breakdown structures, scheduling and Gantt charts, risk fundamentals, communication, and managing change mid-stream.

Your team leaves with: hands-on practice and a complete template set for future projects.

LEVEL 3

Applied Project Planning Workshop 1.5 days

Training becomes work product. Teams bring real, current projects and — with facilitator coaching — build genuine charters, scope statements, schedules, and preliminary Gantt charts for their own initiatives.

Your team leaves with: real project plans for your organization's actual work, started in the room.

LEVEL 4

Intensive & Planning Lab Two days

The full toolkit applied end-to-end, with extended lab time: complete scheduling development, follow-up and governance structures, monitoring and course-correction, and a closing session where each team presents its plan.

Your team leaves with: substantially complete project plans and a 30-60-90 day execution roadmap.

Every engagement includes all materials and workbooks, travel to your site, and a facilitation team that scales with group size and format — so participants always have coaching available. Rates are all-inclusive; request our Program & Investment Overview for details.

Proud to Serve the Public Sector

Federal, state, county, and municipal agencies receive a dedicated public sector rate and fully inclusive quotes — travel, materials, and delivery in a single line item — to simplify procurement and purchase order processing.

Community & Reentry Practice

Praxis brings its capability-building approach to justice-involved and community populations. We design and deliver practical courses inside correctional facilities and for reentry programs — including Introduction to Entrepreneurship and Introduction to Financial Literacy — built on the same principle as all our work: participants leave with skills and tools they can use immediately.

This practice is grounded in long-standing commitment, not a service line added on paper. Our principal has served the reentry community for more than fifteen years — over a decade in county reentry committee leadership before delivering reentry engagements professionally since 2023 — and has supported county reentry offices and their partners on training, housing, and community initiatives.

  • Courses delivered inside correctional facilities: entrepreneurship and financial literacy
  • 10+ years in a leadership role on the Montgomery County (OH) Reentry subcommittee
  • Member, Cuyahoga County reentry committee, since 2023
  • Professional reentry engagements as part of the Praxis practice since 2023
  • Experience with county reentry offices and community development partners
Who you work with

Senior-Principal Delivery, Every Time

The person who scopes the work is the person in the room

Vissen Praxis is a consulting practice built on direct senior-level engagement. Every project is led by a principal with executive experience spanning general management, global sales and marketing, and product leadership across medical devices and other regulated industries.

That range matters: we address the problem you have, not the service we happen to sell. When the constraint turns out to be communication rather than process — or morale rather than planning — we can follow it there.

  • Project Management Professional (PMP) certified
  • Six Sigma Green Belt
  • 13+ years of cross-sector consulting experience
  • Executive background in sales, marketing, product management, and general management
  • Public sector and commercial client experience
