Nonprofit Consulting Strategy Development - Mission Partners Approach

Our Approach

At Mission Partners, we think seriously about every project we take on, because we take our work to heart. We are successful for our clients and community partners because we believe in them, and we allow that belief to inspire every aspect of our work. We work carefully and respectfully to uncover what is standing in the way of an organization’s success. We navigate issues empathetically and we co-create strategies designed to move people to action. Above all, we approach every client experience as an opportunity for transformative impact, toward our greater goal of advancing a just and equitable future for all.

We Listen.

Often between the words, and always to those at the margins.

We believe that listening carefully to those outside and around traditional seats of power can reveal critical information about where an organization is, and where it is going. We listen carefully and respectfully to all people and all perspectives.

We Navigate.

Developing a sound strategy requires a steady partner and guide.

We understand that our clients have big ideas and bold ambitions. We deploy best-in-class research strategies to understand the full scope of a situation and then collaborate closely with our partners to develop communications strategies that tackle tough problems. We speak truth to power with love whenever required. And we intentionally assess and help rebalance power within organizations to address the ideas and perspectives of those most impacted by the work and tangibly advance goals with an inclusive and values-based mindset.

We Co-Create.

We are called in at mission-moving moments, to help our clients make the greatest impact.

We help our clients get at the heart of why their work matters, making sense of complicated strategies and complex topics in ways that move people to action.

We Amplify.

We position our clients and their issues for success.

An idea will only go so far without a community of champions. We build campaigns that move audiences to allies and consumers to champions.
