NOW IS THE TIME TO EMBRACE TRUE PARTNERSHIP

Never has any organization faced such a challenging and complex world than the one we all find ourselves living in now. While some believe that navigating the uncertain future of an organization is primarily a staff function, Gigi holds the tension for groups and helps navigate the path for staff, key stakeholders, partners and volunteer leaders to find their way together – empowering all sides of the partnership.

The most challenging and rewarding part of this work is researching, developing and assisting others as they implement strategies to serve the ever-changing needs of their organization. Co-creating these solutions with you and your teams assures that the processes and actions address the specific and unique needs identified and create the results desired. No two organizations, Alliances or boards are the same nor need the same solution.

Whether delivered virtually or in-person, all of Gigi’s engagements are customized to your expressed needs.

I believe in the capacity of people to leverage their gifts and strengths to change this world for the better and I am honored to be trusted as partner on the journey…
