Your organization is a vehicle for change.
Traditional strategic planning often involved sitting down to create a
5-year plan for growth.
But you know what?
That approach misses the mark.

The real question is:

How can you build a strong team, foster partnerships, and tap into resources to make the biggest impact possible?

Our approach

G&E takes a holistic approach to organizational change, emphasizing personal, relational, and systems transformation.

Our coaching and facilitation is:

Transformative

Impact-Driven

Works in complexity

Adaptable

Collaborative

Inclusive

Innovative

Non-Hiearchical

What we do

Our goal is to help your organization grow its capacity for social transformation and make a positive impact.

At G&E, we pride ourselves on being a trusted resource in transforming the social purpose sector in Canada. Our coaching team comes equipped with a rich toolbox that incorporates creating a strong container for discussions, tailoring approaches to fit your needs, providing insightful analysis, and supporting everyone through active listening, thoughtful facilitation, and coaching.

We’re here to assist you in four main areas:

Impact & Strategic Clarity

Are you interested in addressing a complex issue that impacts a specific community?

Are you creating positive, lasting change?

To help you understand your impact better, Garrow&Evoy is here to help you:

Define the social changes you want to be accountable for
Analyze your ecosystem and resources
Identify any obstacles you might face
Test your assumptions
Determine which strategies will lead to the results you are aiming for
Develop and implement a plan of action

In practical terms, we are excited to help you create a Theory of Change and Impact Statement, so you can make informed decisions and enhance your impact.

Having strategic clarity also makes it easier to share your mission with confidence to everyone involved, which can really help you advocate for more resources!

Impact Measurement

Do you sometimes wonder how much difference your organisation is actually making?

Impact measurement is not just about proving impact, but also about constant improvement
through nurturing a data-driven and evidence-informed culture that promotes results and learning.

Garrow&Evoy helps you unpack the key elements of impact measurement, making it easier for you to create a tangible measurement practice in your organisation.

We support you to:

Create a supportive organizational culture that uses data and evidence to boost your confidence and skills
Choose the right measurement framework (and metrics) that suit your organization
Focus on filling in any missing data to enhance your tracking and learning journey
Gather valuable data from various touch points to create an engaging impact story
Refine your organizational learning and keep improving together

Navigating the system

Are you building community while trying to align interests in every direction?

Building connections that bridge diverse communities and prioritize new ways of working rooted in relationship, collaboration and innovation are integral components of changing organisational culture.

Garrow & Evoy use the power of relationship to tackle the big social issues, equipping change makers with more inclusive and expansive approaches to collaboration.

We’re here to help you connect the dots, offering insights backed by data and thorough analysis.

WE SUPPORT YOU TOWARDS:

Mapping the system
It's all about understanding how everything is connected, whether it's individuals, organizations, or institutions. By making sense of the information, you can make smart decisions. This helps you see the bigger picture, find ways to grow your programs to reach even more people, and strengthen those valuable relationships with your current partners.
Balancing power
Working with a keen awareness of power dynamics. By recognizing everyone's unique experiences and centering their voices, we can create new opportunities for collaboration and alignment.
Field collaboration through trust and respect
We’re excited to partner with you in creating a learning culture that embraces our differences and opens the door to positive change in various fields. By truly understanding the needs of a sector, we can reshape our work practices, continually reassess our priorities, and embark on a journey of reflection and renewal. And let’s not forget, it’s all about teaming up with field catalysts who unite people across systems to reach a common goal or make a meaningful impact.
Designing accessible models and platforms
We use AI and technology to share and develop ideas among people, organizations, and systems. Together, we can create new stories and learn to embrace change by tapping into our creativity and exploring fresh visions and perspectives.

Coaching the Field

G&E supports change makers upstream in 'how they show up' in their many roles: as individuals, leaders of organizations, and as mediators or facilitators of systems. We help by shining a light on your work patterns by exploring the underlying values, behaviors, and relationship dynamics while celebrating different forms of leadership.

Garrow&Evoy is here to support you with:

Personal growth, healing and transformation
Structured and nurturing one-on-one coaching. A space to address root causes in your personal practice and approaches to your work. A grounded space to explore the often unseen connections that lie beneath the surface, and reflect on individual perceptions, mindsets, and actions.
Hosting spaces to imagine new narratives
Unlocking potential by hosting peer-led conversations and communities of practice that position meaningful relationships as a first order goal. Through story and strategy, it invites leaders to reimagine systems of care, collaboration, and change rooted in relationships.

A space for reflection at the intersection of active listening, knowledge sharing and storytelling
Sharing observations and conversations from the field, on the front lines of change. Working beyond the boundaries of conventional social change approaches, by drawing on a rich tapestry of knowledge and methodologies from diverse lineages, including mindfulness, the arts, somatic and spiritual practices. Let's get out of the office!
