Do You Have Any of These Challenges?
Resource Allocation
As organizations change to meet new challenges, it’s common for leaders to struggle to assign the proper work to the right people. Not only do you need to figure out the strongest pathway forward, but you also have to achieve success within the constraints of your team. As former organizational leaders, we know this struggle and can serve as your thought partner to find clear pathways and assign and support work across your team.
Talent Acquisition
Building teams can be the most rewarding work a leader can take on. It’s also challenging and fun if you have access to the right folks as you make every hiring decision. This includes a diverse, motivated, and highly competent candidate pool and experienced advisors to support you as you make selection decisions confidently. We do this professionally, and we love it, so let us help you as you build a fantastic team.
We lead with our core values of optimism and empathy: optimism for bringing about a more positive reality for children today and in the future and compassion for our clients working to make this vision a reality.
Strategic Direction
It’s rarely fun to drive around with no clear plan to make the journey successful. We believe organizations need signs and maps, so leaders and stakeholders know where they are now and where they are going. Signs are how we know where we are; Maps are how we know where we are going. The process of scaling and growing is always full of potholes, but we can help smooth the path by mapping your journey and setting measurable milestones that indicate your progress towards your goals.
Stronger Consulting was specifically founded with a mission to advance opportunities for young people of color and prides itself on its placement of leaders of color with organizations that have taken a stance that all children deserve the opportunity to receive a high-quality education in a safe and supportive environment. Furthermore, we are working to support leaders and organizations with missions that align with ours and who are innovative, passionate, and working with a sense of urgency to create a positive reality today and in the near future. Our impact on the world is through the leaders and the organizations that we partner with.
Overcoming Obstacles
Leadership takes place at every level of an organization, and obstacles are everywhere too. Managing up, over, and across an organization takes real skill, and we may feel unprepared and lack confidence in our ability to tackle the challenges we face. Leveraging external knowledge, skills and abilities can be the right boost we all need from time to time to overcome the barriers to success in our work.
