Services

We tailor our services to meet your specific needs and budget. However, most engagements include one or more of the following: project-based consulting, executive advising, and workshops.

Project-based Consulting

The focus and form of projects depend on the specific context. Based on discovery conversations we draft a proposal which includes goals, scope, approach, outcomes, deliverables, and cost. The project outline further specifies major steps, timing, and roles and responsibilities.

Recent Carta Nova engagements include: Developing a product roadmap; facilitating an annual board retreat; conducting an assessment of team effectiveness. See Clients for additional examples.

Executive Advising

Executives and senior managers often need an objective and knowledgeable third party to help them sort through the complex issues and tradeoffs they face as leaders. We have often played this role, bringing to the relationship depth of thought and breadth of experience. Arrangements are flexible, from periodic consultations to regular weekly meetings.

Workshops and Presentations

Carta Nova workshops and presentations provide an opportunity to discover and explore new insights, enhancing individual development as well as team productivity. Materials can be adapted to fit timeframes ranging from one hour to full-day sessions. See examples in right-hand column.

Pricing

Pricing is generally a flat fee as outlined in the engagement agreement although hourly billing arrangements are possible. Rates may be adjusted depending on the nature and duration of the work. Carta Nova offers a discount to nonprofit organizations.
