Big News: Expanding My Work in the Nonprofit and Business Sectors
I’m thrilled to announce that I’ve stepped into the role of Senior Advisor at Armstrong McGuire! While I continue to serve nonprofit organizations through this partnership, I am also sharpening the focus of Mission Mappers to dedicate my independent work exclusively to purpose-driven, for-profit businesses. I’m celebrating this transition with a guest post over on the Armstrong McGuire (AM) blog, where I share five lessons on finding stability during organizational pivots.

Case Study: Ensuring Stability During Leadership Transition
When a nonprofit faces significant leadership challenges and key team member turnover, operational continuity and employee retention become the top priorities.
A nonprofit organization dedicated to humanitarian advocacy and cultural integration needed more than just a temporary manager; they needed a strategic partner to work collaboratively to stabilize their team, manage daily operations and prepare the organization for new executive leadership.
Mission Mappers stepped in as fractional COO/Chief of Staff for a 16-month engagement. The result? A stabilized team, essential process implementation, utilization of $270K in grant funds that otherwise would have been missed as a result of the leadership transition and seamless onboarding of a new leader.
Discover how a fractional leadership model provided the critical support needed for this nonprofit organization during a pivotal moment of change.
How It’s Going. How It Began.
My clients and I spend a lot of time creating roadmaps to move from where they are to where they want to go. As we reach each milestone, it’s easy to jump right into the next one without pausing to reflect on how far we’ve come and to take a minute to celebrate.
I was reminded of the importance of this as I ran across a vlog that Next Stage was kind enough to suggest, record with me and publish to announce Mission Mappers in 2023.
Enjoy this fun conversation I had with Josh Jacobson, CEO, and Janet Ervin, former CMO, to mark the beginning of my Mission Mappers journey.
