Fixing the System, not just the Symptoms
Expanding the Economic and Cultural Landscape of your City
Creating upstream solutions to downstream challenges for cities committed to growing their creative economy, diversifying their entertainment industries, and expanding their creative and entrepreneurial workforce.
Vision
We work with leaders to refine their vision, realign competing priorities, and create a clear path forward. A well-defined vision is essential for success, as it drives strategic decisions, motivates partners, funders and teams, and fosters long-term economic and social growth.
Our Process
Action
We work with leaders to turn vision into results and avoid the confusion, inefficiency, and missed opportunities that comes from poor planning. We work with leaders to set strategic goals, define key steps, outline measures of success, and ensure accountability.
Relationships
Your ability to galvanize support from constituents, attract investors, negotiate partnerships and deals, and understand customers or competitors ties back to your strength in building relationships and the skills it requires. We help leaders build those skills and the relationships required for success.
Maryann Lombardi
With interdisciplinary and cross-industry experience, I've worked with governments, universities, nonprofits, start-ups and brands. They are not all that different from each other. All are trying to achieve their goals, and improve outcomes for the clients, customers, or community they serve - and solve the problems that stand the way of those two things.
I help leaders identify and create strategic solutions to their challenges; and build the relationships and partnerships necessary to implement those solutions.
