M.A. Henry Consulting, LLC works with a growing list of diverse clients with one characteristic in common. They are organizations and professionals who are seeking to make a meaningful, measurable difference – in their fields of expertise, in their communities, and among the people they serve.
We also are very much committed to community-engaged partnerships and projects where informal learning institutions connect with schools and after-school and community outreach programs. Our experience with complex, multi-partner programs and initiatives enables us to see both the details and the big picture, and to assist clients in connecting their activities to what they want to accomplish.
The people and organizations we serve have asked the following questions, and turned to us to help find the answers:
- We are engaged in designing and implementing programs where the bottom line is more complicated than making a financial profit. How do we plan for and recognize success?
- How do we obtain funding?
- How do we know our program or project is successful?
- Who is important in making program decisions? Who are our stakeholders?
- How do we know when to modify our plans? Do the challenges we face result from our assumptions, our work plan, our implementation, staffing issues, or unexpected external factors?
- How do we convince our funder that a program has been designed and conducted in the best possible way?
- How should cost effectiveness and cost benefits affect our decision-making?
- Have we reached the people we need to reach?
- How should we measure success?
Answers to these questions have direct and practical implications for professionals working in such diverse fields as education, social services, health or medical services – any field where programs are delivered to achieve a change, improve an outcome or create a positive impact.
