In our combined 50 years of non-profit leadership experience, we have had to address a wide range of problems. We use this experience to help our clients assess, define and address problems related to their organization, its mission and operations.

We help leaders who have an idea for a nonprofit go from idea to impact. This 15 week cohort based program provides comprehensive training in Strategy and Operations. We take an organizational leadership approach to helping people get up an running.

Among the most challenging aspects of non-profit leadership and growth is accessing the right networks. We believe that networking is a skill to be fostered and networks are assets to share and develop together. Our goal is to continuously build networks across practitioners, academics, philanthropists, concerned citizens and more.

Change seems to be ever present. Non-profit organizations are feeling the effects of social change, the great resignation and shifting employment landscape. In some circumstances Interim Executive or Development leadership may be the right solution. We work with Boards, Search Firms or Founders-in-transition to explore if this is the right strategy for success.

We curate quarterly gatherings designed to pull people together who share the deepest of yearnings to see the world become whole, yet do so from wildly differing perspectives. Leaving our egos at the door, taking time to know one another while we break bread, we can dream, grieve, hope and conspire together as we lean into pushing the world to be what it ought to be. In Chicago specifically, we believe our city can be growing in population, safety and equity while declining in levels of segregation, corruption and dysfunction. If we do it together.

Leadership training is widely available, but quality leadership is in short supply. The world we live in is fraught with conflict and trust is hard to come by. Our mentoring model for leaders uses the principles of Rare Leadership, Emotional Intelligence and Servant Leadership to help shape healthy leaders and healthy teams.
