Sliding Scale Pricing

We offer our planning services on a sliding scale. Our aim is to price our services at a level that is both inclusive of smaller organizations as well as sustainable for our continued work. We determine our pricing based upon two considerations: 

  1. The budget of the entity paying for the services. In other words, if a funder is paying for these services, the price will reflect the budget of the funder rather than the organization participating in the planning process.

  2. The support required given the participating organization’s current plans already in place. 

We have included some examples of prices for our facilitation services to the right. Please reach out to us (click below) for an estimate for your organization.

    Note: Emergency Succession Planning is one part of our larger Succession and Sustainability Planning process. If you and your board are seeking to understand whether this body of work would be beneficial to your organization, beginning with Emergency Succession Planning is an impactful way to go about learning more before completing the larger process.

    Family Leave Planning

    Sample Organization with a $55mm budget and minimal prior planning completed:

    $2500

    Note: Family Leave Planning is one part of our larger Succession and Sustainability Planning process. Doing this rather than the comprehensive Succession and Sustainability Process is another effective way of understanding whether the larger body of work would be beneficial to your organization, particularly if you are approaching a period of family leave yourself.

  • Sample organization with a $55mm budget and minimal prior planning completed:

    $2500

    Note: Our Succession and Sustainability Planning establishes a policy for sabbatical for executive leaders. This separate Sabbatical Planning process is intended to establish the redistribution of responsibilities for the period of leave, the objective of the sabbatical, the support that the board will provide to the interim executive leader during the leave period, and an onboarding process for the executive leader to resume their leadership position following the sabbatical.

  • Sample organization with a $55mm budget and minimal prior planning completed
