- Strategic planning and implementation
- Developing effective policies and procedures
- Board development and engagement

2. Leadership:
- Leadership styles and their impact
- Effective communication and team management
- Crisis management and decision-making
- Interim CEO roles and responsibilities

3. Communication:
- Enhancing internal and external communication strategies
- Stakeholder engagement and management
- Crafting impactful messaging for various audiences
- Utilising digital tools and platforms for better outreach

4. Fundraising and Financial Management:
- Fundraising strategies and donor management
- Financial planning and sustainability for non-profits
- Budgeting and financial oversight
- Grant writing and reporting

5. Operational Efficiency:
- Improving operational processes and workflows
- Technology adoption and digital transformation
- Project management and execution
- Measuring impact and outcomes.

6. Organisational Culture and Change Management:
- Building a positive and inclusive organisational culture
- Navigating change and transformation
- Staff development and capacity building
- Volunteer management and engagement

These themes reflect my work as a charity consultant, where I focus on enhancing their governance, strategy, leadership, and communication to achieve their missions effectively. I would be interested to hear what has been absorbing your focus.
