About teamWorks |
"Leadership is about making others better as a result of your presence and making sure that impact lasts in your absence." - Sheryl Sandberg |
Life really is about making a difference and teamWorks helps organizations do just that. We help you creatively engage your community. We help you utilize your amazing volunteers / employees. We help you realize that a team approach to any issue, challenge or concern is more effective than conquering it alone. Our team works to help you build organizational capacity.
Founded in 2006, teamWorks serves clients big and small, from national organizations to regional collaborations. We've had great success in developing and facilitating professional development retreats for boards and staff. We've trained thousands of staff and volunteers on everything from committee development to fundraising. We've conducted high-energy, results-oriented training workshops for leadership volunteers. We've developed strategic plans for entire organizations. We've created signature fundraising events from cocktail napkin to implementation. And we've been honored with speaking engagements at national conferences.
