Based on client feedback last year, we're testing out an on-call advisory package for leaders who need experienced thought partnership as they navigate organizational change.
We have only 3 spots available starting in February, and we're offering this only to trusted partners and past clients.
What is it?
A monthly advisory partnership that puts experienced operational strategists in your corner. Think of it as having a trusted operations partner on speed dial—someone who's been inside mission-driven organizations for decades and understands nonprofit constraints. We help you navigate decisions without adding to your plate.
Real scenarios where this helps:
-
Stuck on a big decision? Whether to restructure your programs team or hire another person—you have someone to talk it through with who understands nonprofit constraints
-
Funder asking for a timeline? When you're not sure what's realistic, you can get a our insight before you commit
-
Leading your team through change? When you want to navigate it well and proactively, you have a partner helping you think through and prepare for each step
What's included:
Strategic guidance, tools, and insight tailored to what you're actually facing:
-
2 advisory calls per month (45 minutes each) – Scheduled or ad hoc when decisions can't wait
-
As-needed email/Slack check-ins – Quick questions, gut-checks, or "does this make sense?" moments during common office hours
-
Project review & feedback – We look at plans, timelines, or proposals before you present them to boards or donors
-
Decision frameworks – Tools and approaches for common operational decisions you face repeatedly
You'll experience:
-
Faster decisions with less second-guessing
-
Fewer stalled initiatives gathering dust
-
Clearer boundaries around what your team can actually handle
-
More confidence when presenting to boards and funders
-
Less stress carrying big decisions alone
Who it's for
Nonprofit leaders navigating growth, transitions, or donor-funded initiatives who need operational wisdom from people who have been there and can help you think it through.
Who it's not for:
This is not the package for you if you need someone to do the work for you or you're looking for tactical implementation support.
Investment
Because this is a pilot, we're offering this package at a discounted rate of $1,500/month for 3 months. However, if after the first month it's not helpful to you, we'll end the engagement with no further cost.
Next step: Schedule a 30-minute discovery call to walk through your current challenges and see if this is the right partnership.
Our Track Record
When we've done this work with organizations like Young Life, Christianity Today, and ETEN Innovation Lab, we've consistently delivered at least 2:1 ROI—finding twice the investment in operational savings or capacity gains.
But more importantly: Leaders tell us they finally feel ready instead of reactive.
