"Culture eats strategy for breakfast."

Peter Drucker often argued that a company’s culture would trump any attempt to create a strategy that was incompatible with its culture. Has your organization deployed strategy after strategy and still been unable to achieve the level of success you envision? Have the people you’ve hired been unsuccessful?

Is your culture capable of supporting your strategies?

We help build successful organizations and fundraising efforts by developing high functioning cultures that are built to support sustainable and effective growth and fundraising strategies. We do this through a disciplined approach, utilizing many of the tools you currently use, focused on building a successful culture.
