"From Project Delivery to Lasting Impact—A Game-Changer for Our Team"

The World Bank – NEWMAP Project

The Post Project Benefits Realization Management training by Dinak Strategy Consulting Limited has fundamentally transformed how we manage the World Bank NEWMAP Project. Within three weeks of the training, my team redesigned our monitoring framework to track 12 specific benefit streams beyond traditional outputs, improving our PIR score from ‘Moderately Satisfactory’ to ‘Satisfactory’ in the sustainability rating.
Dinak’s practical tools—particularly the benefits realization tracker and stakeholder accountability matrix—enabled us to identify ₦47 million in potential value leakage and develop mitigation strategies now embedded in our project closure plan. Our state government counterparts, previously uncertain about post-World Bank sustainability, now have clear ownership of 8 benefit areas with defined KPIs extending 3 years beyond project end.
Most importantly, we’ve shifted from activity-focused reporting to outcome-focused delivery. The training didn’t just add to our knowledge—it changed how we work, think, and deliver sustainable impact for our communities. I unreservedly recommend Dinak Strategy Consulting Limited to any development project serious about legacy and results.

“A Training That Actually Changed How I Work”

The World Bank State Focal Office

I’ve attended my fair share of professional development courses over the years, but the Project Management Training at Dinak Strategy Consulting was different—it actually stuck.
Managing multiple World Bank projects simultaneously means I’m constantly juggling competing priorities, tight deadlines, and stakeholders with very different expectations. Before this training, I was essentially firefighting my way through the week. Now, I have systems that work.
The risk assessment framework they taught us? I used it on a water sector project that had been giving us headaches for months. Within two weeks, we’d identified issues we’d been missing and got the project back on track. What really impressed me was how practical everything was—no fluff, just tools I could use the next day.
My team has noticed the difference too. Our project review meetings are shorter and more focused, and we’re catching problems earlier instead of scrambling at the last minute. I’d estimate we’ve cut our crisis management time by half, which means more time for actual strategic work.
If you’re managing complex development projects and feel like you’re always playing catch-up, this training is worth every minute. The facilitators at Dinak genuinely understand the real-world challenges we face, and they’ve given me practical solutions that have made my job significantly easier.

"This One Was Different"

Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC)

As Acting Managing Director of NNPC Gas Marketing Limited (NGML), I can confidently say that Dinak Strategy Consulting Limited’s Project Management training has been the most impactful professional development investment we’ve made in recent years.

Dinak’s approach was refreshingly practical—no abstract theory, just actionable frameworks tailored specifically to the realities of Nigeria’s gas sector. Their consultants understood our operational challenges intimately, from regulatory complexities to community stakeholder management, and equipped us with tools that deliver results in our context.

The results speak for themselves:

Within five months post-training, our project delivery timelines improved significantly, with several major initiatives showing clear gains in efficiency and execution. Key projects that benefited directly from the enhanced capabilities of our teams include:

⦁ Gas Supply to Ibafo, Mowe & Sagamu Interchange
⦁ Train 2 of Gas Supply Infrastructure to BUA Cement factory
⦁ Gas pipeline from Ibafo to Ikeja LIA

Budget overruns across active projects dropped from 17% to under 5%, delivering substantial cost savings. Stakeholder satisfaction scores also rose sharply—from 66% to 89%—greatly reducing delays caused by community resistance and other external disruptions.

Beyond the metrics, the training transformed our team culture. My engineers, procurement staff, and project managers now operate with a unified project language and far stronger collaboration. Risk management has shifted from reactive to proactive, preventing several potential major disruptions in recent months.

The confidence and capability I’ve witnessed across both senior managers and junior staff has been remarkable. We’re now pursuing—and winning—opportunities we previously considered beyond our reach, including strengthened governance that has impressed potential partners.

Dinak didn’t just train us—they partnered with us for sustained success. Their post-training support and customized toolkit have ensured the impact remains strong and measurable over time.

I wholeheartedly recommend Dinak Strategy Consulting to any organization serious about elevating their project management excellence, particularly those operating in complex, high-stakes sectors like Nigeria’s gas and energy industry.

First Bank PLC

After undertaking Dinak Consulting’s Project Management Training alongside other team members we experienced a dramatic improvement in competence at managing projects.
Our cost savings exceeded $150,000 across 9 different projects as the IT project lead at the bank by the application of the risk management framework which formed part of the PMI curricula that I gained from the training. Also, we saved more than 40% time across multiple projects with resultant improvement in customer satisfaction by nearly 65%.
Equally, I was constantly able to align most projects with corporate strategy and build my business and political acumen to satisfy project sponsors.
