Social Sector Solutions Delivers High Impact Nonprofit Consulting
Eleven students teams delivered high impact consultations for nonprofit clients including Operation Access, Native American Health Center, and Marine Stewardship Council. Under the instruction of Nora Silver and Paul Jansen of McKinsey & Co., students created expansion plans, business plans, evaluation systems and marketing plans.
"The team did an amazing job. A resounding yes -- we will absolutely use it. We would have paid 100 times more that what we paid. We now have a good data-driven expansion plan," Scott Morgan, Founder, Education Pioneers.
Special thanks to the students, client nonprofits, foundation partners, McKinsey & Co coaches and course instructors for their many contributions and leadership.
