I enjoy creating clarity and supporting growth for leaders and organizations
I work with nonprofit CEOs, Executive Directors and senior leaders navigating pivotal moments: leadership transitions, funding disruptions, strategic resets, and organizational turnarounds.
With 20+ years as a nonprofit senior executive, including COO, Executive Director, and geographic VP roles, I consult with organizations that need more than a framework. They need a thought partner who has actually run things at scale nationally, regionally and locally with teams ranging from 8 to 400.
My leadership roles in large and mid-size organizations have included accountability for: strategic planning, operational and program assessment, turnarounds, interim leadership, and team culture with a particular focus on organizations managing complexity and change.
In addition to my experience, I value learning and connecting in order to form views and opinions for the people I work with over applying templated solutions.
If your organization is at an inflection point, I’d welcome a conversation to see if I can help you look and move ahead.
He goes into every role knowing he won’t be there forever, and with the intent to build enduring systems and people. Somehow both the most logical person in the room AND genuinely, deeply funny — which makes even the hardest things feel more possible. – Jess Skylar, Founding Partner | The Helia Collective
