...but sometimes you struggle.
In spite of of your fierce commitment, it is hard to make headway. Checklists displace your actual work, your meetings aren't inspiring, and you're not sure how best to get your team working together. Most heartbreakingly, you don’t feel you’re making progress on your mission.
We see leaders and teams struggling - and it is not always a lack of the right tool or skill. The culture and structures we are working within often create barriers to our success. We see the PAIN you are feeling as a symptom of a larger PROBLEM. Our PATH is always designed to guide you to a long-term, sustainable solution.
Become the Leader You Want to Be
pain
There are moments when you doubt yourself.
You’ve accomplished a great deal, but you question if you are the right person for the job.
Vulnerability - as a leadership tool - does not feel safe.
Problem
We prioritize ‘doing’ over ‘becoming.’
Organizations, especially non-profits, teach us to feeI that if we are not “doing” something, we are not leading.
We then undervalue time spent thinking, planning, and growing as a leader.
PATH
Invest in yourself as a leader.
Our experienced, compassionate, and certified coaches guide you with Leadership Coaching to give you space to become the leader you want to be..
Guide with the Power of the Collective
pain
Your leadership team struggles to lead.
Each person brings strengths, but you fail to function as a team.
Being nice doesn’t translate into the ability to make decisions together.
Problem
Leadership teams end up together by virtue of their positions.
Unfortunately, teams are often assembled with little support or guidance.
Teams lack the common language or trusting space to hold challenging conversations.
PATH
Build the support your team needs to lead.
Leadership Team Coaching using our GRACE™️ model takes your team from a group of individuals to a collective that can truly lead.
The Conversations You Need to Have
pain
We avoid things that are hard to talk about.
We sometimes talk around what is truly important.
As a result we miss opportunities for growth, connection, and communal problem-solving.
Problem
We are taught to avoid uncomfortable topics like power and privilege.
We don’t have shared boundaries or common language.
We are too close to our group and our challenges to see our path clearly.
PATH
Create your vision together.
We serve as facilitators to develop cohesive Organizational Plans. Whether a retreat, or yearlong process, we build trust for you to build your vision together.
You (Chris) are a genius!
On behalf of our faculty, let me thank you whole-heartedly for your exceptional guidance. We are in a productive, forward thinking mode, thanks to you.

The area we reside and work in around Portland, Oregon was occupied by the Multnomah, Wasco, Cowlitz, Kathlamet, Clackamas, Bands of Chinook, Tualatin, Kalapuya, Molalla, and many other tribes. The rich resources of this region brought countless tribes from across the Pacific Northwest to engage and in trade, cultural exchange, and celebrations. We recognize the incredible resilience and vibrant culture of these people despite hundreds of years of colonialism.
In 2001, the Chinook Nation obtained federal recognition from the U.S. government, however, the U.S. government rescinded this recognition eighteen months later. We honor the continuing fight for recognition by the Chinook and other tribes who made the lands we stand on their own.
