Did your organization have a recent executive director or development director transition? Do you need interim support?

How We Help

AmplifyDMC can offer specialized expertise to help you gain much-needed capacity during times of tough transitions: 

• Interim support: If you’re down a key development or communications staffer, AmplifyDMC can help steady the ship by plugging in a “fractional” member of our team. This can look several ways, including embedding for a few hours a week at your office.  

• Hiring support: We can sit in on interviews, help craft job descriptions for development staff, and more. Not only does this add capacity, but an outside perspective can often be helpful when hiring. 

• Organizational development: AmplifyDMC can help you restructure a development department, assess and choose a new database, and more. 

Have an initiative that needs a skilled project manager or facilitator? AmplifyDMC can step in to lead a successful rollout. We can help you plan, implement, and launch with confidence while saving valuable capacity within your team.

To support you with these and other hard codes to crack, AmplifyDMC offers workshops, trainings, and facilitation sessions including:

• Board engagement: From board retreats to workshops during regular board meetings, our team can help you with a range of challenges, from board participation in fundraising, disjointed meeting dynamics, lack of follow-up, and more.

• Building a culture of storytelling: Our trainings and workshops bring together different staff departments (program, leadership, development) to discover gaps in your storytelling ability, then apply a simple and effective framework for crafting and sharing compelling stories that truly communicate the impact of your work.

• Demystifying the logic model: For starters, we use human-centered design to reframe clinical-seeming logic models into “impact narratives.” By centering the workshop on how your work impacts real people, the world of inputs and outputs will feel a lot more logical—and authentic to who you are as an organization.
