Building Capacity for Peak Performance

“Throughout the strategic planning process, the SCP team was consistently available to assist, guide, and direct our strategic planning team. What I appreciated was their approach to encouraging the BLARS team to take the lead in brainstorming strategic objectives and initiatives for the future. This approach fostered productive discussions and a strategic outlook throughout the process. The framework SCP provided was easy to comprehend, and we were able to finalize a comprehensive strategic plan for the next three years. I am pleased to recommend SCP, and particularly Monica, Bob, and Jenny, to any organization looking for direction and assistance with strategic planning.”

“We hired Strategic Consulting Partners in 2024 to help us create a fundraising plan to stand up a development program—an important step in ensuring the long-term sustainability of the generational work our nonprofit is devoted to in the rural PA Wilds region. In 2025, we reached out to SCP to help us implement a facilitated session at our board retreat. Under the skilled facilitation of Amy Fazio, SCP helped guide our group through thoughtful conversations that are shaping the future of our organization. We greatly appreciated the expertise, insight and structure they brought to the plan and our retreat.”

“Strategic Consulting Partners’ experienced consultants (Monica, Amy, and Jenny) worked with Voice and Vision, Inc.’s Board and staff to create an emergency succession plan and a long-term succession plan, including a blueprint for reorganization. Their innovative strategies, excellent work, and caring professional approach transformed a seemingly daunting task into actionable steps and successful outcomes. The plans were so expertly delineated and easy to follow that in less than one year, Voice and Voice’s reorganization took place, and implementation of the long-term succession plan led to the hiring and onboarding of a new executive director. Strategic Consulting Partners offers excellent work at a fair cost for non-profits. I highly recommend them.”

“It’s hard to overstate the importance of strategic workforce planning, especially for one of the fastest-growing counties in Pennsylvania. We needed Monica Gould and her SCP team to help Cumberland Area Economic Development Corporation (CAEDC) align our workforce needs and talent pipeline with our future vision of the organization. SCP delivered a clear and comprehensive path to reach organizational excellence beginning with an overall assessment. This exercise evaluated the mission, strategic direction of the organization, leadership and staff composition, and employee competencies. By partnering with SCP, the outcome is an organizational structure that is scalable and will carry CAEDC into a very bright future.”

“We’ve used their coaching services for both supervisory and non-supervisory employees. Their catalog of certified International Coaching Federation (ICF) coaches with various backgrounds, expertise, and career experiences offered a plethora of choices for employees to select their best fit. SCP delivered a comprehensive program tailored to our specific needs to include 360 evaluations and DiSC Assessments. The coaching programs have been a success. Our employees have requested additional hours beyond the original contracted hours. We’ve realized greater leadership potential for both supervisors and non-supervisors, higher overall employee engagement, and stronger job performance from all. I highly recommend SCP for professional coaching services. Their genuine care and commitment to their clients organizational needs are commendable and put them above the rest who offer similar services.”

“Strategic Consulting Partners has become like a member of our organization. They’re experienced, cooperative, and always available when we reach out. They are great partners with the airport authority. An unexpected benefit has been the ongoing input and effort on their part. We look forward to working with them as we go through the second phase of strategic planning.”
