Sjm Consultancy Group

sjm consultancy group

Bromborough,

In 2010, it was time for me to move on ~ after over a decade ~ from my work as the founding executive of a non-profit strategy organization (click here for information about my background). Wanting to take time to explore next steps, I jumped at the opportunity to take on some short-term consulting projects. What I found was an exciting and rewarding career partnering with executives who had great vision but too little bandwidth to move from idea to implementation rapidly. Specialties Facilitation ~ Organizational Strategy: Design, Action Planning and Implementation ~ Executive Coaching ~ Stakeholder Engagement ~ Partner Management ~ Project Management ~ Capacity Building ~ Team Building SJM is connected to professionals with a wide range of complementary talents and frequently builds consultant teams to address the full range of client requirements, as well as collaborates with consultants independently contracted by clients. Selected Clients Feeding America National Organization ~ University of Pennsylvania, Fels Institute of Government ~ ManpowerGroup ~ State of Colorado ~ Penn Foster Education Group ~ National Association of Workforce Boards ~ Bluedrop Learning Networks ~ Workforce Professionals Training Institute ~ Public Consulting Group ~ Annie E. Casey Foundation ~ City of Long Beach, CA ~ NRF Foundation What's In a Name? SJM is named in memory of three individuals who had a profound impact on my life: my brother Scott, who followed his dreams and inspired me to do the same; my stepfather Jay, who built his own business and showed me what it takes to succeed; and my grandmother Molly, who believed I could do anything.

Trinity Square Education

trinity square education

London

Founded in 1971, it is one of Canada’s first artist-run centres and its oldest media arts centre. We are a not-for-profit, charitable organization. For 50 years, Trinity Square has been a champion of media arts practices. Our activities are guided by a goal to increase our members’ and audiences’ understanding and imagination of what media arts practices can be. Trinity Square strives to create supportive environments, encouraging artistic and curatorial experimentation that challenge medium specificity through education, production and presentation supports. As video-based practices have become increasingly present across disciplines, Trinity Square engages artists and curators in critical investigations into the changing conditions of perception, materiality and the virtual. We consider all of our artistic activities and structures through a process of critical self-reflection, continuously evaluating the ethical positioning of our programming, jury structures, inter-organizational relationships, et cetera. In addition to holding aesthetic worth in its own right, our artistic programming extends our education and production activities in order to generate new knowledges. Trinity Square’s programming is guided by three priorities: 1) promoting an expanded definition of media arts; 2) promoting the meaningful engagement of diverse voices in all levels of our operations; and 3) supporting and nurturing the production of new works by artists and curators. Our membership represents the diversity of the city and honours the original mandate of the organization—seeking to reduce barriers to access related to race, gender, sexual orientation, and socio- economic and physical ability.
