DECOLONIZING LEADERSHIP
Context and Nuance consist of non-binary people of color that represent the communities that our organizations serve . While this experience lends itself to creating a strong roadmap, the true strength of interims is that they can be engaged and have the bandwidth to support stakeholders to make the plan a reality. For organizations stretched for internal resources or wanting to speed up the timeline so they don’t sit stagnantly, a project-based consultant or interim executive can be a powerful solution.
HOW CAN YOU SET YOUR ORGANIZATION UP FOR LONG-TERM HEALTH?
