We offer many types of assessment and analytics on fundraising operations, organization, development, philanthropic market, impact, governance and constituent perception.
Campaign Management
Our campaign counsel services are tailored to your organization’s specific circumstances and based on campaign best practices, four decades of campaign expertise and the creativity to bring new approaches and cutting-edge thinking to our work together.
Coaching and Mentoring
Through our executive coaching programs, we support directors and other high-level staff in navigating the pressure and challenges they face as a nonprofit leader who often wears many hats.
