Set Strategy & Make it Happen
Achieving big, lasting change requires a bold vision coupled with concrete plans to make it happen. We partner with nonprofits and networks to help them dream big and turn those dreams into reality. Here’s what we can do together:
- Organizational Strategy, Collaborative Strategy, and Theory of Change: Clarify your bold visions and goals, understand where you can uniquely contribute to a broader impact, evolve your organizational strategy as needed, and engage stakeholders in shaping your strategy
- Program Strategy: Explore the viability of new program ideas, test those ideas, and evolve and scale your existing programs and services to position your organization or network for greater impact
- Capacity Building: Design, manage, and evaluate capacity-building programs tailored to the needs of affiliate or chapter networks; create customized assessment tools that illuminate strengths and challenges within your networks
- Financial Sustainability: Explore the viability of new business models and earned revenue opportunities to better sustain your impact
- Implementation Planning: Identify and align on key decisions, needed resources, and clear action plans so you know what to do in the coming days, months, and years to bring your strategy to life

Strengthen Culture & Navigate Change
Our research shows the importance of intentionally shaping organizational culture to create the impact you seek. While building culture and navigating change inside organizations can feel ambiguous, we bring focus and clarity to the process with a methodology and a team that provides empathy and support through coaching. Here’s how we can work together:
- Culture Change: Take a close look at your values, systems, and processes, and work with leaders and leadership teams to align behaviors with the results you seek
- Change Management for Organizations, Networks, and Collaboratives: Gain clarity on how your needs are shifting as you respond to external changes and as your organization or collaborative matures; understand your strengths and challenges, and then build the capacities and operating systems you need to adapt and evolve; and work with leaders and leadership teams to navigate changes and drive toward the results you seek

Learn & Evaluate
Driven by our value to “listen and learn,” we partner with you to listen deeply, learn, experiment, and shift direction as needed to keep you on track to achieve your goals. Here’s how we can work together:
- Learning: Create a learning agenda; change processes, structures, and behaviors to help you implement the agenda and integrate learning and evaluation into your day-to-day work; and ensure teams have the necessary knowledge and skills to maintain a learning culture so you can better understand your impact and continually learn what works
- Evaluation: Conduct developmental and summative evaluations, collecting and analyzing data to adapt your strategies and programs to have greater impact and bringing deep expertise in areas such as evaluating capacity-building programs across networks
