How We Can Help You

We support mission-driven companies and organizations in five core ways:

Strategic Clarity with Operational Follow-Through

Too many strategic plans sit on a shelf.

We guide organizations through processes that result in clear priorities, grounded implementation plans, and the infrastructure to track and sustain progress.

Examples of what this includes:

  • Vision & goal-setting facilitation

  • Five-year strategic planning with SMARTIE-aligned implementation roadmaps

  • Cross-functional workplans and decision frameworks

  • Risk assessment and mitigation planning

  • Ongoing monitoring, adaptation, and alignment coaching

Organizational Effectiveness & Design

You’re growing, evolving, or changing, and your org chart, systems, and roles haven’t caught up.

We help you align structure with strategy, so your people and programs can work better together.

We’ve helped clients with:

  • Departmental restructuring and functional alignment

  • Decision rights frameworks and operating models

  • Compensation model design and salary transparency tools

  • Internal communications and rollout planning

  • Talent strategy, including career pathways and org-wide competencies

  • People-centered layoffs

Fractional & Interim Leadership That Moves the Needle

Sometimes, you don’t need a full-time hire — you need the right partner to guide you through a season of growth, transition, or execution.

We offer fractional and interim executive leadership to fill critical gaps with experienced, hands-on capacity.

  • Chief Operating Officer (COO), S/VP of Operations: Overseeing systems, structure, and execution

  • Chief Strategy Officer (CSO), S/VP of Strategy: Driving priorities, metrics, and internal alignment

  • Chief of Staff: Leading cross-functional collaboration and keeping momentum

  • Chief Human Resources Officer (CHRO), S/VP of HR/People: Designing inclusive, values-aligned people practices

People Practices That Actually Support People

From hiring to retention, your HR and people strategy should be equitable, coherent, and tailored to your culture - both the one you currently have and the one you seek to build. 

We ensure that the way an organization manages and develops its people matches its values and supports its mission and goals.

Our services include:

  • Inclusive hiring frameworks and training

  • Competency-based promotion and performance models

  • HR audits and policy development

  • Staff engagement strategies and manager training

  • Benefits audits and employee value proposition refinement

Program & Impact Infrastructure

We help you connect the dots between what you do and what you achieve.

Whether it’s refining your program model, defining your Theory of Change, or developing an evaluation strategy, we ensure your work is focused, effective, and well-communicated.

What this looks like:

  • Theory of Change development (organizational or systems-focused)

  • Program model refinement

  • Measurement frameworks and data culture strategy

  • Impact narrative for funders and stakeholders

  • Program alignment with strategic priorities

Not Sure What You Need?

That’s okay. You’re not alone.

Many clients come to us with a feeling - “Something isn’t working” - but not a fully formed ask. Through thoughtful discovery and diagnostic work, we help uncover and prioritize what will make the biggest difference for your team and mission.
