Testimonials
"Gloria Franqui came into the organization after a long tenured Executive Director moved on to a new role. She assessed immediate organizational needs and worked with the Board to develop a solid plan to not only build on the organization’s ability to advance its mission during the transition, but to identify the essential skills and characteristics needed in the next permanent leader.
Gloria brought a passion for the mission, a willingness to build positive relationships with staff, residents, and all stakeholders, as well as the ability to calmly manage crises as they arose. She left the organization in a strong position for the new Executive Director.”
"Our 45-year-old nonprofit was having problems due to fiscal issues and an unexpected executive transition. We worked with Gloria Franqui to conduct a sustainability review and eventually developed a plan for closing the company.
We found Ms. Franqui to be an expert in all aspects of nonprofit management. She was able to work with both board and staff to clearly assess the status of the organization and then develop and implement realistic and appropriate plans to take the next right steps.
Ms. Franqui is clear, direct and able to provide the guidance and support necessary to make even difficult things work. She has been blessed with a good head, and an equally good heart—truly a winning combination—and she is as calm as she is competent. Any organization lucky enough to have her help is a blessed group indeed. "
"Ms. Franqui embodies the true definition of “transformation agent,” bringing a unique ability to quickly and efficiently determine the complete landscape of any organization, regardless of size and shape.
Her ability to assess weaknesses at tactical and even board-of-director levels allowed us to accept a plan to close gaps, repair our fiscal deficiencies, and scale the organization more strategically, tactically, and appropriately.”
"Ms. Franqui is extremely talented with experience in every aspect of nonprofit management. Through her tenure she was faced with challenge after challenge. She consistently responded with excellent judgement, creative and thoughtful planning, and concise communications.
She is open and approachable, always maintaining high ethical standards, and is a true leader.”
