Common Focus Can Help:
Our Services
Solutions For Organizations
Common Focus designs and leads meetings
and retreats for businesses, non-profit organizations and other
small groups.
Planning, Crisis Intervention, & Board Development:
Planning:
An Insurance Company . . . holds annual planning sessions. They
have brought together the company with its numerous satellite
offices so that the staff can look at the chances, opportunities
and challenges and create a clear plan for the year.
A State-wide Membership Organization . . . had policies and practices
that had been outgrown. Board planning retreats along with small
and large meetings to negotiate and ease into the needed changes
resulted in the adoption of new policies that open the door for
growth in the coming years.
Crisis Interventions:
A Social Service Non-profit . . . was faced with board and staff
conflict. We created together a welcoming place for honest conversations
that did not get stuck in finger-pointing. It allowed them to
create an understanding of how they could work together.
Board Developments:
A Large Local Foundation . . . wanted to hold a retreat that would
invigorate the board. We created a one-day session on building
passion for the mission of the organization.
A Nonprofit Board . . . was losing the active participation of many
of its members. The roles of the staff and the board had become painfully
intertwined and the board did not have an understanding of its role
in setting policy and raising money. The board and the Executive
Director were able to negotiate a clear set of expectations.
