NLN Coaching Services

How It Works

NLN differs from other business operating systems because it uses nonprofit language that reflects nonprofit values and focuses, while incorporating timeless best practice methods from the for- and nonprofit spheres.

NLN also centers the “who” first, while traditional operating systems center the “what” and the “how”. We believe that the right “whos” lead to the best “hows” and well-executed “whats” for your clients.

Unlike the operating systems used in for-profit companies, NLN recognizes that nonprofits serve more stakeholders types, using fewer resources, in a difficult emotional landscape, without receiving market value for their products and services. That level of complexity deserves the highest-quality coaching available, designed especially for nonprofits.

We can make your leadership efforts more sustainable and improve client outcomes when you are candid about the challenges and opportunities your organization faces and when your team commits to doing whatever necessary to improve your internal systes.

As a coach, my role is to partner with you in learning the system, holding your team’s focus as you implement, and helping you reflect on and use the learning, progress, hiccups, and the story the data tells us along the way.

My process is supported by my practice of the Next Level Nonprofit values: Relentlessly Pursuing Excellence, Bold Humility, and Building a Transformative Relationship with Partners.
