As a new employee (week 8 on the job), I’m learning more and more about Transform Consulting Group. I have found that we don’t stop working where other consultants might. The typical client engagement cycle at other consulting groups follows: Research is finished, the meeting is over, and the report is delivered to the next client.
Client: Now what?
Consultant: I wonder what they did with our recommendations.
TCG goes further – we help you implement change. Elevate your organization with expert guidance. Transform Consulting Group specializes in training your team to implement effective change.
Just like no funder wants to adopt a grantee forever, no client wants to hire a consultant forever. We want to make sure that the work we have completed for the client will be sustained beyond our engagement with the client.
We work with several clients to support their evaluation needs. This might include evaluating a program for a grant, developing an evaluation plan and process, or developing a data dashboard. Evaluation can be intimidating for many of our client’s staff, so we develop data tools and plans they can manage and implement beyond our engagement. To accomplish this, we might embed a series of training sessions for staff throughout our evaluation project.
We are doing this for the Center for Leadership Development. We have provided the following training topics mainly around analyzing data:
- Using Excel to analyze program data
- Using SurveyMonkey to analyze data
- Using the National Student Clearinghouse to analyze data
- Implementing a Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI) process with evaluation data
- Using evaluation data with marketing, fundraising, and outreach efforts (for development and communications staff)
Our training includes detailed slides, a recording of the training, and handouts. These are valuable tools that can be shared with new organizational staff.
We also offer training on other topics for which we provide services. Some of our popular trainings include:
Not only does the organization benefit, but according to research, employees want professional development! It makes them feel that the company is investing in them and their development, which can increase employee retention. A win-win!
At Transform Consulting Group, we understand the importance of evaluation and the critical implementation step. If your organization needs help developing its staff or would like to engage with a consultant who can help you through the entire evaluation process, contact us today to learn more!
