MANAGEMENT CONSULTING

The need for major change in both public and private organizations is essential. We are beyond the days of moving from one management fad to another. What is required today is a fundamental shift based on a changing environment and a new information age focus. Zucker Systems uses many of the approaches discussed in Paul C. Zucker's The Management Idea Book, The ABZs of Planning Management Second Edition, The ABZs of Planning Management, What Your Planning Professors Forgot to Tell You, along with continued behavioral research. 

Zucker Systems work is based on the premise that there is a difference between normal and maximum productivity in an organization and that difference relies on the skill of the manager. 

Company Background and History

Zucker Systems was created by its President, Paul Zucker in 1982. To our knowledge, it is the only national organization and management firm that specializes in analysis of planning, building, engineering and related departments. We have worked with over 100 cities, 40 counties, and 20 non-profits in 29 states and the Cayman Islands. We also differ from other consulting firms that do this work in that our senior staff members have also managed these functions as governmental employees and contract staff. Thus, we have in-depth knowledge about the functions we are analyzing.

In addition to our “best practices” experience through our contracts, we have conducted national research on best practices, performance measures, and permitting and organizational methodology. We interact with Community Development departments throughout the U.S. and Canada via our interactive website.
