We had a great governance workshop day with Angie for our minor hockey association board of directors.  Angie brings a very professional, yet fun and informative approach that was very productive for all our directors.

​

We covered a number of topics in a short period of time and Angie kept us on track and focused throughout the day, leaving us with a number of takeaways for short and long term implementation.

​

I would highly recommend Angie and HIP Consulting to all non-profits looking to improve their governance model and structure!

Angie McLeod has been contracted... to provide information, facilitation and

coordination on a variety of projects.  We keep coming back to her as she

is a consummate professional who combines a keen sense of the non profit

and business worlds, a passion for excellence in all she undertakes and

skill delivered with authenticity.

 

Angie facilitated a process with our Board that helped our Agency explore

the possibility of a Social Enterprise.  She was incredibly well prepared,

provided us with relevant background materials and guided us through a

wonderful process of discovery about our capacity as an Agency,

understanding what it was we wanted and didn't want and how to move

forward to next steps.  Angie's professionalism, skill and personality are

in high demand and we consider ourselves fortunate to have her at the top

of our "go to" list.

"...contracted with Angie...for two significant, yet very different, economic development projects... impressed by the breadth of research… pleased that the geographic distance between us was not a barrier to our communication or project results. As expected, her work was excellent and received on time and on budget..."

Community Futures Development Corporation of Alberni-Clayoquot

"…working with Angie … has been a humbling experience... analysis of our organization has cut right through the rhetoric to focus on what needs to be done NOW to move us ahead!

 

... she works hard and delivers what she promises… but her best asset ...has been her patience, she has patiently gone after what she needs and will not be content with second-rate information...

 

... Angie's strict attention to accurate data was instrumental in us joining only 11 other organizations around the world on a shortlist for the ALCAN $1M (U.S.) Prize for Sustainability!

 

She has taken the time to get to know our organization and the staff - our success is her success."
