Testimonials

I would recommend her for any work requiring a high level of practical knowledge about nonprofit management, social intelligence and ethical standards. Besides being highly responsible and competent, it was a joy having her work for us.
- Bruce Hoeger, Former Board president, International Maritime Center of Oakland

Judith has really put her stamp on this [high donor] program, which is a major factor in our surviving the recession. She has excellent follow-up, quick response to donations and queries, great outreach to and engagement with donors. Enjoyable to work with. 
 - David Loeb, Publisher/ Executive Director, Bay Nature Institute, Berkeley

Thank you for offering what I experienced as open-hearted, open-handed support these last months. I couldn't have done it without you.
 - Kit Miller, Director, Bay Area Nonviolent Communication, Oakland

Judith played a key role in organizing celebrity-chef fundraising as in San Francisco and New York City. She also was successful in winning grants.
 - Rosalyn White, Executive Director, Tibetan Aid Project, Berkeley

Judith was an intricate part of a volunteer based program supervising four interns for the season. She was instrumental in helping the agency create a Fire Prevention Program from scratch that provided the volunteers with service learning, leadership opportunities, education and environmental stewardship. This program's success is due to Judith's hard work and dedication to the core values of SCA. [Respect, Excellence, Responsibility. -jk]
 - Chris Abbruzzese, Program Manager, Student Conservation Association, Boise

I just hung up the phone with you, and must say again how profoundly thankful I am for our conversation. I feel enriched, inspired and re-connected to the great possibilities of this work.
 
  - Morgan Cleveland, Development Director, East Bay Waldorf School, El Sobrante

Other quotes I like

"Much of our daily interaction with our fellow human beings is empathic because that is our core nature. Empathy is the very means by which we create social life and advance civilization." - Jeremy Rifkin, "The Empathic Civilization"

If you have an apple and I have an apple and we exchange these apples then you and I will still each have one apple. But if you have an idea and I have an idea and we exchange these ideas, then each of us will have two ideas.
- George Bernard Shaw

Putting your intentions and morals and good people skills back into the way you do business, we feel, might be part of a cure. That’s why we talked about the importance of being a human artist, someone who understands the so-called “soft skills.” Treating people like you want to empower them to succeed instead of wanting them simply to buy is a path towards sustained business. Working out how your business fits into an ecosystem and understanding what else your customers are dealing with helps with this as well.
