Helping Your Network Members Work More Effectively Together

How We Help Your Network Have More Impact

We work with national and global networks to increase their impact across local sites and affiliates as well as at the central office. Rigorous data analysis and assessment of stakeholder perspectives guide us in identifying opportunities for improvement and greater impact. Across all our work, we understand the importance of engaging multiple stakeholders, including leaders and board members at both the network and local site/affiliate levels, in order to advance new strategies and initiatives.

• Design and Execute Bold Strategic and Programmatic Initiatives: We help networks develop a vision and plan to implement and replicate effective programs across the network.
• Build a More “Customer-centric” Central Office to Serve the Network: We help you identify how the central office can better serve and support its affiliates/sites. This includes developing a plan to deliver the most important services and resources that sites/affiliates need to be successful.
• Refine Your Network Operating Model: We help you improve your operating model (governance, structures, accountabilities and ways of working) so you can best organize and allocate people and resources across the network, sites/affiliates and the central office to help translate your strategy into results.
• Improve Local Site/Affiliate Impact and Develop Leadership Teams: We help local sites/affiliates gain clarity on their strategy and build capacity to improve their performance over time. We support local sites/affiliates through our customized consulting services, cohort-based programs and online leadership programs including Bridgespan Leadership Accelerator and Leading for Impact.
