Our consultants have been assisting organizations large and small for more than two decades. Since 1996 our founders have worked with City Managers, Executive Leadership teams, Presidents and Chancellors of Universities, as well as front line managers and supervisors to identify and remove dysfunctional wedges.  After spending several years as an employment law trial attorney (representing first plaintiffs and then defendants), Gerry Preciado, our President, realized that by the time his clients called him it was too late: the damage was too deep, relationships broken and the conflict too great.

​

Gerry spent several years developing an approach to leading and managing people while empowering them to positively navigate conflict and other workplace challenges before it became “too late” for them. The result is encapsulated in 34th Street’s proprietary approach, “The Wedge: A Simple Metaphor for Improving Every Relationship”

​

He has helped countless groups move from dysfunction and discord to productive and harmonious teams. We engage our clients in the wedge removal process to identify the conflict creating behaviors, the process for removing them, and preventing future wedges. For years we have been empowering teams to not only press forward with greater effectiveness, but to also assist others in the organization to do likewise.
