A focused hour to work through one strategic question. You set the agenda — we work through it together in real time.
Office Hours is drop-in expert support. No long-term commitment. No homework. You set the agenda and we work through it together in real time, and you leave with a next step you feel ready to try. Think of it as a senior colleague on speed dial.
Come with: a funder reporting requirement you are trying to make sense of, a survey or interview guide that is not landing the way you hoped, a logic model or evaluation framework you inherited, a data collection or analysis dilemma, or any other half-baked data question you're wrestling with.
A standing thought partner working alongside your leadership team to build a learning system that fits your organization and can pivot alongside it.
This is a strengths-based and judgment-free service. We get to know your unique context while sitting with you and your leadership team, building something rooted in your organization's values. It's relationship and systems work at once, so you gain both a solution and a partner.
What you'll get: a readiness assessment to identify your starting point; standing sessions where we build the system alongside you; strategies to pilot with support to debrief and refine; and accompanying maps or summary reports that can outlast any one person's tenure.
A structured. judgement-free audit of your organization's data systems so you know what you're collecting, how it flows, what it's actually telling you, where the gaps are, and what to do next.
A Data Health & Systems Assessment is a structured, judgment-free look at what data is collected, how it moves, where it stalls, and where it actually gets used. You'll leave with a clear picture of what's working, what's missing, and what to do next. It can also serve as the justification for a grant or the board budget approval you need to build the system that actually works for you.
What you'll get: a readiness assessment to confirm scope, a written information flow map with annotated gaps and strengths, a plain language summary report, and feasible recommendations with guidance for implementation.
We co-create your data collection tools, evaluation frameworks, or reporting templates around your priorities — then we show you our work so you understand why it was built the way it was and how to adapt it.
This is for program coordinators or managers at non-profits and foundations who are increasingly responsible for tracking and reporting (whether or not that was the job they signed up for). You're capable. You just want something immediately useful and someone to show you how to do it yourself.
Come with: a survey or interview guide you need built from the ground up; a logic model or theory of change you want to develop properly; a data analysis protocol you want to understand, not just receive; or another data tool that could benefit from a refresh. A scoping session and wrap-up session to support implementation are included.
You tell us the gap. We scope it, build it, and hand it back. No sweeping commitments, no clunky project plans, no recycled templates.
Light Touch Consulting is deliberately unbundled. This is for program coordinators and managers at nonprofits and foundations who need expert support on something specific, without bloating their admin budget. Think of us as your data partner in a relay race — ready to pick up, run hard, and hand the baton back so your team keeps moving.
Come with: a tool you need built; a one-off deliverable for a funder or board that needs to be right the first time; or a recurring task you'd rather hand off. We'll set guiding goals, integrate your feedback, and send you off with support to implement right away.
From a single program review to a multi-year organization-wide evaluation, we bring the full range of qualitative, quantitative, and arts-based methods to answer your burning questions.
Evaluation is the service AND was built on. Our client-centred process generates the protected time, rigorous data, and creativity you need to realign program delivery with your strategic plan, strengthen relationships with community and partners, and tell an authentic story of your impact. No judgment. No generic templates. You call the shots. We bring the technical skill.
Leave with findings you can immediately use, a report or deliverable that satisfies your board or funder, and next steps you can act on with confidence.
Hands-on capacity-building built around your team's actual context, questions, and methods. No generic curriculum; real skills you can use from day one.
Every session is anchored in real evaluation tools — like logic models or important data collection methods like survey design, interviewing, or arts-based methods — and built around what your team needs. This is for teams at nonprofits and foundations responsible for program planning, gathering and reporting feedback, and informing strategy or quality improvement.
Bring your case studies, context, and curiosities. We'll scope a workshop or series that gets your team up to speed and ready to apply their skills right away.
