Testimonials
Of all the non-profit leaders I’ve known, Paul is head and shoulders above them. I’ve watched him work miracles. His work with clients involves functioning successfully on many dimensions. During Covid, he was able to guide a nonprofit through successfully by recognizing in advance the need to stock up on supplies. His residential clients were kept safe and healthy while similar organizations experienced high rates of disease. When he begins working with a new nonprofit, he has an uncanny ability to understand the perspectives of all the staff, to quickly listen to their concerns and move forward to anticipate the most effective reorganizing strategies. His mastery of complex, interorganizational budgeting and planning arrangements is superb and comes with much experience in pushing the envelope of what is fiscally possible for his clients. He understands people, organizations, and finance. He is not afraid to make tough decisions. He is deeply committed to the success of the mission of nonprofits. I recommend him without reservation.

“Paul came on board with COHIF as their interim ED at a critical time for the organization. He was able to quickly assess the organization’s needs, develop an action plan and work with the board to complete projects and activities crucial to COHIF’s continuation as an organization. Without Paul, it would have been very difficult for COHIF to survive.”
