What Sets Us Apart
​​
We are not your typical consultancy. Our founder, Carolyn Mozell, brings over two decades of experience serving in some of the highest levels of local government leadership, giving her a deep understanding of the unique challenges public service leaders face.
​
As a result, we're able to marry our experience navigating municipal bureaucracy and government insider insight with emotional intelligence to bridge the gap between processes that stall progress and the people leadership needed to move it forward.
​
With a minimal learning curve, we onboard quickly, delivering cohesive project plans that achieve outcomes, meet timelines, and help leaders strengthen capacity to serve their communities faster.
