About Me and My Work
What kinds of projects, tasks, or challenges do you typically partner with nonprofits on?
Trellis Partners provides time-bound executive capacity to nonprofits in transition—from start-up mode to rapid growth to infrastructure upgrades for next-level excellence. We embed Term Executives, full-time dedicated change leadership for up to 30 months to drive internal improvement efforts. We help nonprofits create conditions for resilience and max impact.
We partner with staff at all levels to tackle challenges throughout the complex system:
• Finance, administration, and operations
• Planning and decision-making processes
• Accountability practices
• High turnover
• Enterprise technology integration
• Safe, inclusive culture
• Staff and management development
• Travel logistics
• Security
• Knowledge management
• Internal communication and organizational learning
Why would someone choose to work with you?
Term Executives are not like consultants who work on a short-term project and leave behind a set of recommendations. Instead, we engage as dedicated partners who both develop change objectives and work with you to effectively implement them. Term Executives serve in a COO or other leadership role, enabling the creation of sustainable, organization-wide systems and an intentional culture that are the foundation of a resilient organization. After usually between 6 - 18 months, we leave nonprofit enterprises stronger than when we joined them.
