About DDI

Who We Are. Development Dimensions International, Inc., or DDI, is a leading talent management consultancy. Forty-five years ago, we pioneered the field; today we remain its chief innovator.

What We Do. We help companies transform the way they hire, promote, and develop their leaders and workforces. The outcome? Leaders like you who are ready to inspire, understand, and execute business strategy, and address challenges head-on.

How We Do It. If you have ever had a leader you revered, or marveled at how quickly a new hire came up to speed, you might very well be experiencing DDI at work. Annually, we develop 250,000 leaders worldwide. Often, we are behind the scenes, creating custom training or assessment that clients can roll out on their own.

Who We Do It With. Our clients are some of the world's most successful companies. They are Fortune 500s and multinationals, doing business across a vast array of industries, from Shanghai to San Francisco and everywhere in between. We serve clients from 42 DDI-owned or closely affiliated offices. Visit www.ddiworld.com for more information.
