How we work:

Whether your project is big or small, the fundamentals of our processes stay the same. They are:

  • Participatory and consensus-based (to understand and solve problems from many angles)

  • Evidence-based (to gather key facts and information about the issue we are working to solve)

  • Practical and tailored (to provide your organization solutions that fit your needs/capabilities)

  • Results-driven and actionable (to provide plans/reports that are clear, succinct, and practical)

  • Want to get an idea of where you are before you decide what to do next? We offer a range of organizational assessments, from smaller scope “temperature checks” to comprehensive analyses of organizational strengths and needs.

  • Interested in bringing people together to solve complex problems? From setting the purpose and expectations, to developing priorities and establishing bylaws, we can help.

  • Want to understand how well your program, coalition, or project is functioning? We evaluate processes (“how well are we doing this?”) and outcomes (“did we achieve our desired result?”).

  • Using consensus-based, participatory facilitation methods for your large or small group to understand a problem, create a shared sense of purpose, develop a logic model for a new program, generate next steps, and more.

  • Dealing with uncertainty and wondering, ‘what now’? Scenario planning helps organizations imagine the impacts of possible scenarios and take actionable steps to mitigate potential harms.

  • We offer a range of strategic planning services from mini-strategic plans (for small organizations or those that want to get started quickly) to comprehensive strategic plans.

  • Improving organizational outcomes often begins with improving workforce competencies. Whether you want to create a mentorship program or develop performance assessment and improvement plans, we can help.
