Helping organizations heal and grow

Consultation

Human service agencies must engage in careful and deliberate planning to achieve their missions and manage ongoing change.  Filling the Open Space, LLC provides objective analysis and strategic guidance to agencies of all sizes and at all stages of development.  Recognizing the regulatory, political and fiscal challenges facing community-based and state agencies, we identify the root causes of problem areas and make recommendations for practical solutions that address these concerns effectively and efficiently.

Our consultants take a collaborative, results-oriented approach with a focus on strategic thinking and planning.  Throughout the consultation process, we encourage clients to utilize organizational development approaches to plan and implement changes effectively.  As whole-system practitioners, we measure our success by how much client agencies increase their capacity to advance the mission, meet long-term goals, heal and adapt to change.

  • Systems analysis, development and change
