Throughout my career, I’ve watched organizations struggle against the weight of the same problem: How do we inspire our people to do more? It’s an issue I’ve faced again and again with my work in higher education and the nonprofit sector, and one I’ve successfully addressed through creativity and tireless mobilization efforts.
Your employees, volunteers, donors, influencers, and advocates want to give more of themselves, even if they don’t know it yet. My methodology, developed through years of experience, speaks directly to empowering your people (no matter their place in your organization) to be more engaged and productive in their role.
Dan Roam, author of Back of the Napkin, once said, “whoever best describes the problem, is the one most likely to solve it.” I think this quote perfectly describes my approach to this work. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all approaches because in my experience, the problem is rarely the real issue. Instead, I want to help my clients gain a clear picture of their core issues through conversation and inquiry, while uncovering answers along the way. The goal is to develop sensible, sustainable solutions that address each organization’s unique challenges uniquely.
Along with my professional experience, I’m in a position to offer solutions because in my private life I’m a volunteer, a supporter of cause-based organizations, and, as an Asian-American, a proponent of equality and inclusion. The solutions I offer are rooted in the kind of active and activating engagement I’ve been on both sides of.
If you’re interested in learning more about how your organization can use my techniques to better connect, inspire, and amplify your people, I'd love to hear from you. Let’s start the conversation today!
