“The DSA was useful to our organization because we are a big organization with lots of moving parts. It was great to have someone from outside (Lily) help us clarify the data management issues we were having as well as recommend some ways to improve. The process gave us the momentum and structure to move forward and make some necessary changes. And the process was quick! This is important because often these kinds of systemic changes can take years!”

Workshop series for Montana Nonprofit Association

“It was a delight to work with [Lily] and she delivered a great course, that really allowed participants to move their theory of change forward – something that is hard to accomplish in a virtual series! She built out tools and activities for folks to be able to apply and take back to their teams as well and was earnestly invested in their success.

She also provided direct and actionable feedback during the course – again demonstrating her knowledge, critical eye, and care for providing a successful outcome.

I would absolutely recommend working with Lily...” Shelby Rogala, Associate Director and Montana Nonprofit Association.
