Bill Sullivan Email and Phone Number
I'm a courageous, creative, and future-thinking CEO who improves the performance of nonprofit organizations and their leaders who make them relevant. Improved outcomes for the people they serve is my purpose and I find honor in affecting the communities they call home. My gift is designing and testing creative solution-oriented programs intended to evolve, attract funding, and secure sustainability. Forming and nurturing long-lasting professional relationships that often result in powerful partnerships and trust is natural for me. Believing in the (often hidden) power of people to do great things separates me from others because I commit to supporting growth and guiding talent. I am recognized for finding business and social solutions where they appear not to exist. Sharing with others is a lesson I learned in school and uphold today through transparency and humility in leadership. I communicate ideas and strategies to stakeholders credibly and inspire public audiences when communicating concepts to them. I lead out of privilege.PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT- Designed, launched, and funded a pioneering and highly researched social strategy to reduce poverty using new methodologies and approaches that support scalable and replicable practices.- Developed the research and funding allocation for a strategy to turn a failing city around by supporting entrepreneurialism, home ownership, and creative people and institutions. This resulted in a significant reduction in the unemployment rate, a marked increase in first-time homeownership, and a recognizable positive shift in downtown visitors. FUNDING STRATEGIES- Effective Funding Strategist with success attracting over $30 million SOCIAL INITIATIVES - Participated in closing a 700 million pound food gap in southeastern Michigan by attracting $1.5 million in the first year of implementing a successful initiative on food insecurity. LEADING AND BUILDING TEAMS- Skilled in inspiring outstanding performances and career trajectories of employees. I successfully build diverse teams that produce unexpected outcomes.
