Shayna Gelender Consulting, LLC Services
Shayna listens deeply, asks questions, advises, and partners with clients to lead from their values to advance their mission.
Board Coaching and Advising – Boards of Directors play an essential role in your organizational ecosystem. Investing in coaching for board members, individually or in groups, can support boards to be more effective in many ways, including planning; budgeting; partnering with staff; conducting productive meetings; recruiting and onboarding new members; and evaluating successes and challenges. Coaching and advising services - “office hours” - are designed to meet the needs and budgets of small or mid-size non-profit organizations.
Board Transformation – Is your Board of Directors seeking new and more diverse leadership, with (more) involvement from members of the communities you serve, and the people most directly impacted by your mission? Shayna can guide you through an intentional, thoughtful, values-aligned transformation process including assessing who is currently on your Board; who is missing; what mix of skills, expertise, identities, and life experiences are crucial for the composition of your Board; crafting a Board role description; designing and executing a sustainable, replicable system of recruitment and selection of new directors; honoring and rotating off directors who have served their terms; and creating a culture of inclusion and participation. To (re)build a Board that aligns with your organizational values and moves your work forward, a three to six-month commitment is typically required.
Executive/Leadership Coaching – Shayna offers a flexible and responsive blend of coaching, expert consultation, and thought partnership for Executive Directors and other senior leaders such as Chief Operating Officers, Chiefs of Staff, Chief Strategy Officers, Chief Program Officers, and Program Directors. During sessions, we focus on whatever governance, leadership, management, and culture challenges you are facing at a given point in time.
Life/Personal Coaching - Shayna works with individuals in moments of transition or who want dedicated, focused space to vision and plan for the next chapter of their lives. In coaching sessions, Shayna asks questions, listens, and supports each client’s unique needs and desires for improving their lives, setting goals, and achieving their goals.
