I work with mission-driven organizations who want to support their teams to drive greater impact. While this looks different for everyone, some of the most common things I do are team development and effectiveness (including coaching, leadership development, and support for collaboration), organizational strategy and structure (strategy and strategic planning, organizational design), and culture and change management (aligning values, behaviors, and systems; supporting culture shifts; managing organization-wide change; and supporting leadership transitions).
