ABOUT

I have been consulting with nonprofit groups for nearly a decade, working with them on strategic planning, policies and procedures review, and leadership development. I have facilitated the creation of diverse collaborations, built partnerships between businesses and nonprofits, and helped in the formation of new organizations. My work can be tailored to meet your current organizational and programmatic needs, from a one-time presentation to an ongoing relationship.  My background and experience can be found here.

New!  I am a contributing writer on Conservation Maven, an online hub for the conservation community.

Measuring Success
Setting benchmarks and interim objectives helps you ensure that you stay on track throughout the course of a strategic plan.  Annual evaluations of programs and procedures will identify ways you can be leaner and more efficient, while building capacity to accomplish more of your strategic goals.  Evaluations can guide the next stage of your work, and offer your supporters tangible evidence of your successes.
