SERVICES

Assessments

Understanding where you are is critical to knowing where you can go. Assessments provide the foundation for future planning or implementing organizational changes. I build and implement a process that meaningfully engages stakeholders and creates actionable recommendations to further your mission.

Planning

Strategic, operational, and development plans provide a structure for making the most of day-to-day decisions. I create a process to align stakeholders toward a common vision, prioritize work into actionable goals, and effectively allocate resources.

Governance

A strong board of directors is essential for an organization's sustainability and success. I assist organizations in developing board governance skills, evaluating board structures, and providing recommendations to create processes that keep everyone focused on what matters.​

"The Missoula County Community Justice Department was created through the merger of existing programs and departments that support the work of the legal justice system. Each program had separate visions, missions, goals, and staff. Through a year-long strategic planning process, stakeholder interviews, and facilitated discussions, Keegan helped us focus our efforts, build a bigger vision to that serves the diverse needs of our community, all while centering the outcomes that we are working for – a just justice system that upholds human dignity regardless of where in the system you find yourself. We now have a concrete plan for moving our work forward and have deeper and more productive relationships with all of our partners."
