With experience as an Executive Director, Development and Communications Director in Education-Based and Environmental nonprofits, I would be happy to work with your non profit! Let's use Gallup Strengths Finder (now Clifton Strengths) to improve communications across your staff and with your Board. Improved communication increases efficiency, effectiveness and productivity while honoring each team member's leadership style and unique contributions. I also enjoy project planning and am happy to share a comprehensive tool with you to address: Identifying your audience; setting goals; creating messaging; and a communications timeline. As a former classroom teacher and trained educator, I am able to offer engaging workshops, presentations and coaching/mentoring.

Looking forward to putting my nonprofit experience to work for your nonprofit. Let's use Strengths Finder (now Clifton Strengths) to streamline communications across your team. I enjoy project planning and have a tried and true tool that I am happy to share.
