“Lots of people have really good ideas about how to change the world, but not so many have the ability to turn their good ideas into reality. Mike Gifford is that exceptional person who can actualize ambitious goals aimed at making the world a better place. Mike’s ability to set a path and a course is impressive never does he lose sight of mission and purpose, and always present was his profound and compelling dedication to serving the community.“

– Jane Appleby, Board member, Associate General Counsel, Advocate Health

To do more requires more to be done.

The scope, breadth, and depth of your organization is one of the most important, and most unprioritized, assets you have. Scale matters to meet the critically important mission you have. Greater Scale = Greater Capacity = Greater Impact.

The scale may be in the number of employees, budget size, geographic reach, services offered, or quality outcomes. Individually and collectively this scale will help you to do more.

As a board member, CEO, or executive leader you need to be actively thinking about, actively pursuing how to better meet your mission. 

For decades Mike has guided the growth and transformation of organizations from one program to many, social services to health care, from nonprofit to a mix of nonprofit and for profit, from local to statewide to national in reach.

Whether it is growth or transformation, let’s elevate your organization to do more!
