Background

About Stephen Peelor

When you build a sandcastle, how do you start? I build a real foundation for my sandcastles, so that I can add to it, change the design, and deal with a rising tide. Any sandcastle, or any company, that looks good and works well over the long term has a strong foundation. Throughout my career, as an executive and as a consultant, I have built foundations on which companies can grow. Better trained people; better processes and systems; learning why good and bad results happen; superior business models and plans; new ways to share information; clear strategies, goals and responsibilities – these are the foundation of long-term success. Companies that struggle are lacking these – I want to help you and your company build a foundation and grow. Some of my accomplishments, building on good foundations, include: • Making strategic goals part of staff and management performance assessment, to keep the focus on long-term success, rather than quarter-end results • Leading a nonprofit to triple its community investments and impacts, while increasing staff by only 30% • Collaborating with nonprofits to create three capital platforms and more than $190 million in new investments • Creating a new financing program for “pickup truck” developers working in low-income communities If your organization needs a stronger foundation, I would love to talk to you, to learn about how you work, what your goals are, and what challenges you face. Then we can develop solutions together.
