The Story of 5 Dynamics
“People have preferences as to where and how they show up in the Project Completion Cycle. How can we measure those preferences and use that knowledge to help people become more successful and satisfied?” This question inspired educational psychologist W. Michael Sturm to figure out what influences people’s actions. Mike spent over half of his career developing the tools and methodology that form the foundation of the Simpli5 platform. His 25 years of research and testing on over 10,000 subjects helped to create applications that are beneficial in almost every conceivable business and personal situation.
In 2007, Mike met 5 Dynamics CEO and owner, Karen Gordon, who was running a successful data and telecommunications business at the time. While her company had 1,100 percent growth in three years and appeared on the Inc. 500 list two years in a row, in 5 Dynamics terms she was successful but not satisfied. After seeing the positive impact Mike’s research had on individuals, Karen was inspired to help organizations realize how they could work more cohesively and harmoniously. She founded 5 Dynamics in 2010 after several years of planning and fine-tuning the methodology for enterprise application.
Today, Karen and her team work with Fortune 500 companies, leading universities, healthcare organizations and non-profits to create cultures where people can do their best work, and where cognitively diverse teams are valued. We aim to replace friction and confrontation with collaboration and appreciation, allowing organizations to meet their goals and objectives.
