Strategic plans act as a road map to address the challenges and opportunities you’ve identified in your work. A consultant can help unearth the root causes for some of these problems and see the blindspots that those within your organization may miss. Create a strategic plan that is both actionable (aka an action plan) and adaptable for not just your organization, but all key stakeholders including community members.

• Action plans

• Research analysis

• Reports & concept papers

Small and large organizations from every sector experience capacity issues. Reasons include leadership transitions, limited funds for staffing, or the need to build up your team’s skills. We increase your capacity through temporary and long-term assistance.

• Leadership development

• Stakeholder engagement

• Program design

• Implementation planning (build staff skills to implement strategic plans)

The problems your constituents and community members are experiencing are systemic. Your response should be, too. Aging Dynamics helps you identify and work with aligned collaborators in a way that benefits everyone. We can help you form an informal coalition, support sustained collaboration, or develop a formal collaborative.

• Partner identification & cultivation

• Coalition formation

• Value-setting

• Collaborative facilitation

Effective facilitation begins with clearly defined goals. We sit down with you to figure out what it is you hope to achieve, then design a meeting that works towards those ends. An outside facilitator can more easily navigate tricky conversations, complex community issues, large groups, and multi-sector gatherings where everyone has their unique needs. We are trained in facilitation best practices and act from a place of greater neutrality and trust. We also make it fun and engaging!

• Design sprints

• Strategic planning summits

• Board & staff retreats

Community engagement is not a box to check. It’s a significant determinant of how successful you will be in creating the community change you seek. We carefully craft and help you execute an inclusive community engagement strategy to ensure the full diversity of your community and key stakeholders is represented. This also increases community buy-in when it comes time to implement your solutions.

• Focus groups

• Interviews

• Community surveys

• Community power building
