How Dustin Domerese Builds Talent and Rescues ERP Projects at Dynamic Consultants Group

Introduction Dustin’s path from coding bootcamp to C# .NET development and early Microsoft CRM work. Founding and selling a CRM consultancy, then launching Dynamic Consultants Group. The post‑COVID shift from partner‑to‑partner work to more direct customer “rescue” projects. Interview Why traditional hiring for 10–15‑year “experts” often failed inside his firm. Success with non‑traditional hires: concrete foremen, Chick‑fil‑A managers, and career changers. How on‑the‑job mentoring and structured training created loyal, long‑tenured consultants. The origin story of PowerLearn Academy as an accredited bootcamp to grow talent from within. Implementation Challenges Why ERP implementations are notorious “CFO killers” and how rigid timelines fuel failure. The danger of arbitrary go‑live dates set by the C‑suite despite frontline warnings. Lessons from large‑scale failures like big‑box retail expansion missteps. The importance of allowing projects to change scope, priorities, and even platform choices mid‑stream. SPHERE Framework Overview of SPHERE: Surveillance, Performance, Excellence, AI/Automation. Surveillance: ensuring data exists, is consistent, and can be visualized before changing systems. Performance: knowing key metrics like order times, fulfillment times, revenue targets, and “what good looks like.” Excellence: getting everyone to follow the same processes every time so automation and AI can work. Why AI and automation should be the final step, not the starting point, in a transformation journey. Red Flags and Rescue Red flag #1: Lack of detailed, written “no‑kidding” requirements that can be traced through testing and training. Red flag #2: Chronic slipping of development and integration deadlines, especially for critical interfaces. When to pause, step back to requirements, and how to accelerate while still resetting properly. How leaders can create space for course‑correction instead of forcing failing projects to go live. About Dustin Domerese Dustin Domerese is the founder and CEO of Dynamic Consultants Group, a Microsoft-focused consulting firm that has worked with hundreds of partners and customers worldwide on CRM, ERP, and business applications projects. He also founded PowerLearn Academy, an accredited bootcamp in Missouri that helps organizations develop new Microsoft Dynamics and Power Platform talent from non‑traditional backgrounds. Starting his career as a C# .NET developer out of a coding bootcamp, Dustin has built and sold a CRM consultancy and now specializes in rescuing complex software implementations and growing high‑performing consulting teams from within. * Ready to action this strategy?
