A human services nonprofit was awarded the opportunity and funding to launch a new program. Every aspect of the program - from policies to the hiring plan to staff training - had to be created from the ground up.

I project managed the program design and launch, partnering with senior leaders and program staff at every step.

RESULTS: The program went live as scheduled and now provides critical services to a vulnerable population in Chicago.

A workforce development organization was looking to expand its social enterprise to include new business lines and create pathways for financial self-determination.

I partnered with another consultant to guide the creation of a theory of change and intended impact. We researched numerous business models and recommended the go-forward business strategy.

RESULTS: The client is well-positioned to act on our recommendations, leading to wealth creation for 200+ program participants.

An economic development agency had a strong history but needed support in getting certain processes better organized. I sorted through the relevant documents, ensured the various tracking systems were aligned, and developed a monitoring plan to ensure the processes remained consistent going forward.

RESULTS: The organization now has a consistent, reliable process to monitor grant reporting and other risk management deadlines.
