What Clients Say
"George was a critical part of our People and Culture work when I was on the Executive Team and as Managing Director at Sierra Club. George's assessments were both high quality and spoke to the shared humanity of our staff and volunteers, helping us navigate change in powerful, clear, rigorous ways. No small feat!"
"I worked with George on a project assessing the satisfaction of thousands of volunteers at a large organization. George was extremely knowledgeable and kind, helping us develop a survey and analyzing the results in a way that everyone could understand. He brings an equity lens to large data sets, combining the best of both worlds!"
"While working at the Sierra Club, George and I partnered on a needs assessment, analysis and recommendations to transition 400 program staff to remote, digital-first work during the pandemic. George was instrumental in the project - he taught our scrappy team how to structure a needs assessment, what it means to do data analysis, and he was the primary author of the recommendations and report we brought to senior leadership."
"George has a remarkable ability to seamlessly create data and assessment tools that weave narratives together, uncover themes, and highlight patterns that allow organizations to create actionable and impactful strategies that improve organizational culture & climate. The work George does changes lives for the better."
"George is an incredibly detail-oriented and forward-looking thinker. His work to shift the culture around finances and create transparency in budgeting in our union was foundational to setting PWU up for success for many years. He is integrity personified!"
"George was an anchor to Sierra Club's multi-year efforts to understand and shift its organizational culture. He gathered and analyzed employee data and presented nuanced analyses to leadership. People trusted George as a clear eyed, purposeful and kind addition to every team project. I miss working with him."
