Work With Us

We understand what it’s like to feel like everyone on your team is working in a million different directions without a strong sense of purpose

As award-winning leaders and nonprofit leadership development consultants, we’ve worked for decades in PTA and nonprofit leadership.

We know what it’s like to feel overwhelmed with a volunteer leader’s many tasks and requirements.

After repeatedly witnessing frustrated nonprofit leaders struggle with the same problems, we noticed a common thread. These leaders wanted desperately to lead well and make an impact in the mission of their nonprofit but kept getting swallowed up in the busywork and daily grind.

That’s when we started our leadership development company, presenting courses at the local, state, and national levels, helping thousands of leaders just like you. To ensure we could continue to offer tools to help the nonprofit industry grow and thrive- we opened up our coaching and training business; Lead-ology. Working together as partners, we began coaching nonprofit leaders one-on-one, helping them transform into confident and intentional leaders making an impact in their organization and the world.

Because the need is so great, we’ve barely tapped the surface and want to do everything we can to help as many nonprofit leaders out there as possible.

"A lasting positive impact on our association’s growth and development!"

I am absolutely thrilled with the exceptional online training developed by Lead-ology for our association. From the very beginning, they took the time to understand our organization’s unique needs and tailored the training content to ensure it was relevant, engaging, and highly effective for our members. The training modules were both informative and incredibly user-friendly, making the learning experience smooth and accessible for all participants, regardless of their tech-savviness. The attention to detail, interactive elements, and clear structure truly brought the material to life. What stands out most is their commitment to excellence. The team was responsive to feedback and always willing to make adjustments to enhance the content further. They were collaborative, patient, and dedicated every step of the way.Thanks to their expertise, our members now have access to a comprehensive, high-quality training program that equips them with the skills they need to be successful leaders. I have no doubt this will have a lasting positive impact on our association’s growth and development.

"Truly left a legacy that will be felt for many years to come!"

This dynamic duo transformed the communications and organizational processes of the largest nonprofit in Washington state through their exceptional professionalism, leadership, and creative problem-solving. While the organization already had a functioning communication network and several adequate systems in place, their genuine concern for safe, quality-driven, and efficient management of technology and infrastructure enhanced every aspect of communication among customers, staff, and the executive level – especially in challenging situations. Their innovative ideas changed the organization’s culture, making it more responsive and efficient. I believe one of the best decisions we made was to hire this company. They truly left a legacy that will be felt for many years to come across multiple administrations.

"Helped us define clear roles and instilled a renewed understanding of what it means to be fully engaged!"

The Sammamish Chamber of Commerce had the privilege of working with Lead-ology during our annual retreat, where they provided exceptional board training for both new and current members. Before collaborating with Lead-ology, our board lacked clarity regarding their responsibilities as a working board. While many members understood the importance of attending meetings, they struggled to grasp that being part of a working board requires not just time but also active participation and commitment. Barbara and Heather’s complementary teaching styles effectively bridged this gap, presenting the material in a clear, engaging, and easy-to-understand manner. They helped us define clear roles for each board member and instilled a renewed understanding of what it means to be fully engaged. As a result, we are now committed to developing a strategic plan that will serve as the foundation for our future work. Since working with Lead-ology, we have implemented better meeting etiquette, improved time management, and maintained a strong focus on our mission. We highly recommend Lead-ology to any organization looking to align their board, clarify responsibilities, and elevate their effectiveness to the next level.

CEO, Sammamish Chamber of Commerce

"Made a significant difference in my business by filling a critical need for technical expertise!"

The biggest benefit I received from Lead-ology’s service was their timely response and a product that directly addressed my needs. I appreciated the opportunity to provide input and feedback, ensuring complete alignment throughout the process. Lead-ology’s service made a significant difference in my business by filling a critical need for technical expertise that we did not have internally. I highly recommend Lead-ology’s services to others because they are high-quality, timely, responsive, and technically accurate. I cannot emphasize enough how important it is to have a consultant who listens to what the client wants and does not provide a cookie-cutter solution.
