Testimonials

Don't take our word for it. Here are some comments from people we've worked with:
My ED Peer Support Coaching Group is the best professional development experience I enjoy. The insight from my colleagues is illuminating. It’s also great fun, and I value the time with people who truly get what it means to lead nonprofits today. They keep me sane!
Scott Kerman
Blanchet House
Our interim executive director is a confident and transformation leader. Her acumen and talent is inspirational. She left our executive team with actionable solutions for tackling the issues we were working on. Her energy and motivation is contagious, anyone who works with her will catch that spark and advance because of it!
Keri Christensen
Oregon Health Authority
Having an interim leader with knowledge of nonprofits and boards was invaluable. To the community and our board and staff, there was nothing ‘interim’ about this quality and focused leadership, accomplishing more on a part-time basis than many professionals would in a full-time position.
Cheryl Pfaff, Board President
Council for the Homeless
Our interim ED provided needed leadership during a critical time of transition—leadership that the board and senior staff were unable to provide. The scope and deliverables were established in advance so real work was getting done. During this transition we adopted a strategic plan, met our budget goals in a tough economy, met program goals, and guided the organization through the transition to the new Executive Director. Having this skilled leadership enabled us to bring staff, Board, and stakeholders together during a time of transition to lay the foundation for us to continue our services to the community.
Neil McLaughlin, Board President
SOLV Oregon
Our Page Two coach is an incredible thought partner, strategist, and collaborator. She has been an integral part of my early success as an executive director, especially in helping me and our new board chair develop our relationship, focus our energies in the right directions, and launch a board development committee focused on taking our board to the next level.
