T he one thing I know about the world today is that it changes. If you find something annoying, or troublesome, or insurmountable, all you have to do is wait a moment and it will change. As I help my mother move out of her home of 40 years to move in with me, I am more aware of that reality than ever before. Don’t get me wrong, my Mom is doing great! At almost 80 years old she is active and self-sufficient. The stay with us will be temporary until she gets her bearings in a new city and new surroundings. But the process of her move causes me to think about process in general.

Many of you are probably wondering why in the world I am discussing this on a professional consulting website. Simply because consultation is also about process. And in a changing world, consultation is also about change. I have been working for the last year to better define my business model and accurately describe what I offer my customers. It has not been an easy process. I think I’m pretty smart, and I really thought I should be able to figure it out. But my life path has been about as changing and nontraditional as the world in which we live.

So, when you look at this site, you will find that I have created Palmiter Consulting as a process rather than a product. The links on the side called ME are current projects. The links called samples are websites or social media sites I have developed for my projects or my clients. The links called making a difference are what matters to me.

What I know how to do is work with all kinds of people to make their way through change. It may sound simple, but it’s actually a rare skill. That’s the difficulty in defining Palmiter consulting. I have always been about adaptation. I have worked in the nonprofit sector, earned a PhD, taught college students, run training seminars, taught foster parents, run a photofinishing business, worked as a photographer, taught older adults to use a computer, designed web pages, business cards and brochures, and continued to write. All of those skills are what you will find when you work with Palmiter Consulting. Don’t think they would be helpful? Don’t bet on it! Give us a call!
