good intentions.

Strategy Execution Health Assessment
Struggling to make big changes in your program or organization? Feeling like your strategic plans sit on a shelf (or a slide), and you aren’t making progress on them? This is a useful initial step to get a diagnostic on the plans, people, tools, and capabilities required to successfully execute strategy.
Strategic + Operational Planning
Strategic plan missing or outdated? Trying to design this year’s work to reach long-term goals? Missing metrics of success? We can assist in cascading your strategic goals down to the leader, team,
and individual contributor level to maximize your ROI.
Leadership Development: Executing Plans
Leading strategy and cultivating long-term thinking can be particularly tough skills to develop in a mission-driven or public sector environment, where more immediate needs call more loudly for attention. We can help you and your leaders connect your organization’s day-to-day work
with your annual plans and long-term strategic destination.
Project Planning + Management
Reach long-term goals by designing and managing the steps along the way. Learn or improve the ways you scope, lead, manage, and report progress on the projects that build on the strengths and skills
that are inherent, but latent, in your team.
Strategy Articulation + Storytelling
Employees, donors, and partners ask: what will this organization look like in 3 years, and how are we going to get there? Mission-driven leaders are fluent in telling the story of the mission, but often are not as fluent in telling a persuasive story of how you’ll build your future. We can teach you how to successfully make that case.
Most of these services can be offered on a weekly, fixed-fee, or interim executive basis. Let’s discuss the best fit for you.
