Headquartered in Los Angeles, Sky(lark) Strategies is a philanthropy consulting firm employing a triple bottom line business model to help businesses, universities, nonprofits, and foundations do good in the world. We provide strategy, expertise, and proven methods for success, mixing a pragmatic business perspective with a commitment to community issues and environmental health. We love working on building partnerships, digging for solutions to Grand Challenges (diseases, dictatorship, the impact of automation, global problems, community or systemic issues, etc.) and taking start-up efforts to scale be it foundations, nonprofits, or enterprises looking at creating a social impact. A program of Sky(lark) Strategies, The GG Fellowship (aka the Greater Good Society Fellowship) is a 1-year immersive, cohort-style, strengths-based leadership program for nonprofit executives. Our training curriculum strengthens its Fellows capacities to create exponential impact and more effectively run and resource their organizations while managing change and maintaining work-life balance. The Fellowship provides fresh and powerful trainings, motivation and accountability through one-on-one coaching, peer-to-peer mentoring, know-how, and management consulting. We have held several fellowship programs in our home city of Los Angeles and across Europe and South America, and we look forward to our first San Francisco cohort in 2018! We believe that our world is moving at an ever faster pace of technology advancement, globalization, and population shifts. What happened yesterday in Europe, Asia, Africa or the Americas has an effect on what happens today in California and vice-versa. As a result, we look at change strategies that incorporate tested methodologies while going beyond. We are open to working with everything from traditional grantmaking to business design, constantly tweaking a blended impact formula, building collaborations, and creating strong alliances that can galvanize resources and co-create change. It is not about innovation for innovations sake, it is about adapting, listening, learning, and arriving at what works.
