Case Study of an Organizational Internal Assessment — Data Guides Us.
A large nonprofit human services agency hired Stamey Street to conduct an organizational assessment. The case study includes the situation, the adaptive challenge facing our client, the solution, results, and lessons learned.
Case Study of an Internal Systems & Practice Review — We walk the talk!
A small boutique consulting firm grew from one person to ten employees and contractors. With that growth came a need for new processes and practices. Our task was to design an information management system to manage the flow of project tasks and information.
“Our team had a wonderful experience working with Stamey Street Consulting. From the initial conversations about our proposal through the completion of the project, Stamey Street was a conscientious thought partner. Their team brought multidisciplinary expertise to the work and were explicit and transparent in the explanations of their approach.”
