Tailored support for teams who are:
Exploring a new idea

Designing a new program
You know what you want to accomplish. You need help designing an effective, implementable program. Learn how I can help you design for success.
Launching a program
You have a program concept roughly outlined. You need help turning it into an operational reality. Learn how I can help you bring it to life.
Improving an existing program
You have a program that's already operating, but isn’t achieving the results you believe are possible. You need help figuring out what to change and how to do it. Learn how I can help you diagnose the issues and implement changes.
Re-imagining systems
You’ve realized that systemic roadblocks are getting in the way of what you want to achieve. You need help figuring out what you can do about it. Learn how I can help you tackle larger systems changes.
“Our nonprofit worked with Megan to develop two distinct projects around Detroit’s home repair landscape and community ownership of commercial real estate. Megan has a kinetic intelligence that allows her to quickly grasp a project's goals, connect seemingly disparate ideas, and turn complexity into clarity. She is one of those rare strategic thinkers who can provide advice that is both thoughtful and immediately actionable.”
