We all need a little support from time to time. Your nonprofit deserves help from professionals who will care deeply about your mission and have walked a mile in your shoes. Our team has 250+ years of combined experience leading nonprofit as executives and board members.

Have a team in your corner

With our team of nonprofit professionals in your corner, you will receive personalized support in a wide range of nonprofit challenges and opportunities.
For example, we can help your organization work through transition of your executive director; provide coaching for senior staff or board leaders; conduct stakeholder-centered assessments to help you update your strategic plan or provide feedback on your leadership; clarify roles and responsibilities for your Board of Directors; and develop or expand your fundraising program from a donor-centered perspective.

Helping other nonprofit leaders is our mission.

A team that has been there

We have been in your shoes, made our mistakes and had our successes.  We will bring real-world nonprofit leadership experience to you. The common factor:  we are passionate about the potential of nonprofits to improve our community, nation and world.

“Brian is a committed servant leader and guide to those who wish to grow, be challenged and work with and through others. I had the pleasure to work with Brian for several years and then watch him mentor and support great people.”

VP INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS AT INTERNATIONAL RESCUE COMMITTEE

At the Center for Nonprofit Leaders, we know that you strive to make change. You’re doing important work to make an impact in your nonprofit organization and beyond.

We believe nonprofit leaders deserve support because they themselves are supporting others. Our group of consultants have been in your shoes. It’s why we are dedicated to walking alongside nonprofit leaders as they lead their teams forward. 

With decades of combined experience, we bring a broad perspective and depth of first-hand knowledge in the nonprofit industry from entry level to the C-suite, from boards, to staff, to corporate representation.

If you’re working on seizing a new opportunity, or facing a new challenge, and could use another perspective, we’d be glad to discuss your situation and help you determine next steps for your organization.
