Engagement Models

How We Work Together

Four engagement models, each mapped to the disciplines they typically serve — so you can identify the right entry point before we ever speak.

01

Diagnostic

What it is

Fixed-fee, 2–4 week assessment of one discipline, ending in a written action plan. This is the universal entry point — most engagements begin here.

Disciplines it typically serves

Operations & AdministrationEnrollment ManagementAccreditation & ComplianceCurriculum & Academic AffairsLeadership DevelopmentMarketing & Brand Strategy
02

Consulting

What it is

Project-based work with a defined scope and endpoint. We bring structured methodology and a commitment to building internal capacity — so the work continues after we're gone.

Disciplines it typically serves

03

Advisory

What it is

Ongoing monthly retainer with regular touchpoints and on-call access. Best suited for disciplines that require sustained oversight rather than a single project.

04

Interim Leadership

What it is

Embedded, full-time placement as Campus President, COO, Director of Education, or Director of Admissions. Often paired with an Operations engagement during a turnaround.
