ABOUT US
OUR APPROACH
At Ethos Impact, we believe the best outcomes begin with real alignment—between values and vision, mission and method, intention and action.
That’s why our approach is both strategic and deeply human. We don’t show up with pre-packaged solutions or buzzword-laden reports. We show up with curiosity, care, and a commitment to listening. Whether we’re supporting an individual stepping into civic life or a nonprofit navigating a major transition, we start by building trust—and we stay focused on what matters most to you.
We approach every engagement as a partnership, not a transaction. That means we walk alongside you, ask thoughtful questions, and co-create solutions that reflect your voice and reality. We’re not here to be the smartest people in the room; we’re here to help surface the wisdom already in it.
Because we’ve been on both sides of the table—as nonprofit leaders, consultants, fundraisers, and advocates—we understand the weight of this work. We’ve felt the urgency. We’ve seen the burnout. And we’ve come to believe that strategy only works when it honors the people behind the mission.
So instead of rigid playbooks, we offer responsive support. Instead of flashy plans, we offer clear, grounded pathways forward. And instead of chasing trends, we help you lead from your center—with clarity, confidence, and courage.
At its core, our approach is about doing good well. Because when the work is rooted in what's right, the impact tends to follow.
WHAT WE BELIEVE
Consulting should build capacity—not dependence.
We equip nonprofit leaders with the tools, clarity, and confidence to move forward long after our contract ends.
Strategy without values is empty.
Every plan we co-create is rooted in purpose—not just metrics or market trends.
Every partnership is personal.
We tailor our work to meet you where you are—honoring your pace, voice, and lived reality.
Power dynamics matter.
We actively work to flatten hierarchies in our consulting relationships. We’re not “experts” dropping in—we’re strategic thought partners invited in.
The process is as important as the product.
We hold space for reflection, dialogue, and yes—sometimes discomfort. Because real growth often starts there.
