Work Edit For Good

Project Management Do you and your team always feel like you’re in “fire fighting mode”? Do deadlines pop up that you didn’t anticipate? Do processes disappear into the ether whenever an employee shifts teams or leaves your organization? I can help you create living documentation of routine processes and make sure your team stays on track to meet internal and external deadlines. When projects are managed well, team members will feel supported and valued, and begin to see progress reporting as a value add rather than an added burden. Strategic Resource Allocation Does the phrase “the budget is a moral document” resonate with you? Budgets lay out how your organization’s funding is going to be allocated. They make trade-offs between support staff and direct service staff, bonuses and software, health care benefits and art supplies. These are all decisions with profound moral implications. I can help you set up the infrastructure to make these tough decisions, and present the outcome with transparency and respect. Charter School Authorizer Support Building trust with schools you authorize while also holding them accountable is hard. Believe me, I know it, I’ve been there. I can help your team build systems and processes that provide transparency to schools about how they’re measured and give your staff ample opportunity to collaborate on setting and standardizing measures. I can also help demystify performance metrics and co-create actionable rubrics. Board Development and Support Is your board too far in the weeds on day-to-day organizational operations? Or conversely as a board member are you not receiving the organizational updates you need to make informed decisions? Not sure how to evaluate your board’s performance or ask the right questions? I can provide feedback through board observations, and help structure your board meetings to make the most effective use of your valuable time.
