A recommended Blumer for Senior Support

Over 30 years in small-medium charities, both UK national and international organisations.
Strengths include: strategic planning and review; impact-led planning, theory of change and the evaluation process; partnerships and merger; governance and risk; working with challenging boards; group facilitation and organisational change; achieving financial and organisational sustainability.
Open to consultancy, coaching, mentoring, and interim roles.
