As a leader, do you feel like standard practices and meeting norms are outdated, frustrate people and get unsatisfying results? Jen supports leaders and groups looking for effective ways to take themselves, their work, and their organizations or networks beyond what is often imagined possible.​ Instead of creating static plans that don't evolve with the times, Jen supports groups to listen, quickly find common ground, strengthen relationships for the tough conversations, co-create strategy that lives within them (not just a binder), and to learn, adapt, and improve together.
Jen works with governments, tribes, nonprofits, and multi-sector collaboratives facing challenges where traditional approaches have stalled. Recent projects include climate resilience strategy across a California county, regional tribal economic development collaboration, co-creative state master planning with remote rural communities, and organizational culture and strategy transformation. Whether navigating complex power dynamics, bridging diverse interest groups, or turning conflict into breakthrough collaboration, Jen creates conditions where impossible goals become achievable results.
Jen has lived, led, and studied grassroots, organizational, collaborative, and systemic change for three and a half decades. She puts her diverse background and degrees to work in service of motivated, pragmatic innovators driven to imagine, co-create, and test possibilities to get transformative results while becoming better humans, leaders, teams, organizations, networks, and communities in the process. She applies her savvy and rich experience from land management, project funding and development, team-building, leadership and capacity-building, rural and Native communities engagement, organizational evolution, grassroots and relational organizing, community philanthropy, network development and coordination, human-centered design, and more to every project.
