Strategic planning

We facilitate strategic planning efforts that meet the demands of the changing times in which we live. The process focuses on building consensus, examining the environment, and creating a memorable expression of shared priorities.

​

Nonprofit  Governance

nonprofit board members spend about 40 hours a year engaged in board work, and the majority of this time is consumed with reports and decisions. We help organizations build trust between board members and make the most of their contributions by facilitating generative conversations, workshops, and

retreats.

Making the most of your strategic plan

A strategic plan can be an internal guide for board and staff, a powerful fundraising tool, and a unparalleled stakeholder engagement opportunity. However, many organizations don’t fully utilize the immense power of their strategic plan. We bring best practices and  unique ideas to CEOs and staff about how to release the potential of their strategic plan.

Operational planning

Implementation is often where strategic plans go to die. The best strategic plan is only as good as the CEO and staff who bring it to life. We use customized techniques to translate strategic plans into actionable tactics and measurable goals that are tied to the annual organizational budget.

Workload prioritization

According to BoardSource, Nonprofit staff members can be overwhelmed by the demands of competing priorities. Changes in the organization’s environment—a new strategic plan, shifts in funding, a staff reorganization, etc.—can lead to confusion and burnout. Our proven methodology

for prioritization provides tools, interactive training, role clarification, and a shared vocabulary to help everyone get on the same page.
