Engagement Process
Step 1 — Schedule a Call
We begin with an initial conversation to explore your context and needs. If a call is not convenient, you may also send a written request describing your interests.
Step 2 — Define the Scope
We collaborate to outline the scope of work, approach, deliverables, expected outputs and outcomes, timelines, and indicative budget. This can be documented in a proposal, concept note, terms of reference, engagement letter, or even a simple email exchange.
Step 3 — Confirm the Agreement
We finalize a clear agreement or letter of engagement defining objectives, deliverables, and responsibilities—ensuring alignment before work begins.
Step 4 — Implement Together
We proceed according to the agreed work plan, maintaining open communication, providing progress updates, and remaining flexible to adapt as we learn.
Step 5 — Evaluate & Learn
At the conclusion of each engagement, we reflect together on results, lessons learned, and client satisfaction—ensuring continuous improvement and shared accountability.
This structured yet flexible approach guarantees clarity, efficiency, and a positive client experience from start to finish.
Let’s Start a Conversation
Whether you simply want to have a conversation, explore a short advisory engagement, or a more comprehensive collaboration, I’d be delighted to meet and discuss how we can work together.
How I Work
The following principles guide every engagement, regardless of scale or sector.
1. Context-Based. Every engagement begins with a careful look at the organization’s mission, history, culture, and ambitions. I adapt approaches and tools to fit your context rather than applying pre-set models.
2. Grounded in Practice. My support draws on more than two decades of hands-on experience designing, funding, and implementing programs across sectors. I bring strategic insight and operational know-how — helping translate ideas into implementation.
3. Collaborative & Participatory. Strong solutions emerge from participation. I work closely with teams, boards, and partners to ensure ownership, trust, and alignment—so that outcomes are understood, adopted, and sustained.
4. Rigorous & Structured. Every engagement is underpinned by clear analysis, robust planning, and disciplined project management—ensuring clarity, timelines, and accountability.
5. Transparent & Ethical. I build trust through honesty, clarity, and integrity—with open communication, defined deliverables, and transparent reporting at every stage.
