Mindfully Hiring a Consultant: A Strategic Approach to External Partnerships

​Is your organization thinking about hiring a consultant — or wondering why a past engagement didn't go as planned? This practical, interactive workshop will give nonprofit leaders the tools to hire smarter and get more from consultant relationships.

​In just 60 minutes, you'll learn how to distinguish between organizational symptoms and root causes, craft clear statements of work, set expectations from day one, and prevent the scope creep that derails so many engagements. Whether you're considering a fundraising consultant, a strategic planner, or a grant writer, this session will help you go in prepared.

​You'll leave with:

• ​A framework for identifying your organization's true needs before you hire

• ​Key questions every SOW should answer

• ​Practical strategies for managing the relationship and implementing deliverables

​Facilitated by Ellie Brown of Brown Catalyst Consulting, whose evidence-informed, co-designed approach helps nonprofits build sustainable partnerships that actually work.
