From Vision
to Impact.
Strategic advisory, coaching, and facilitation to help mission-driven leaders turn bold ideas into lasting change.
ABOUT US
We close the gap between strategy and execution.
CG Squared is a consulting firm built for mission-driven organizations. We partner with nonprofit leaders, executive teams, and social impact organizations to build the clarity, alignment, and execution capacity needed to drive lasting impact for their teams and for the communities they serve.
Our work sits at the intersection of systems thinking, human development, and equitable design. We don't separate strategy from wellbeing. We don't separate execution from human development. We see them as the same work.
By equipping you and your team to lead with purpose and intention, we help unlock opportunity, turn big ideas into actionable strategies, and ultimately create a lasting impact for the communities you serve.
Who We Serve
Built for leaders doing work that matters.
Nonprofit & Social Impact Leaders
Executive directors, leadership teams, and boards of mission-driven organizations ready to close the gap between vision and execution.
Foundations & Funders
Organizations investing in nonprofit capacity, leadership development, and systems change who need strategic partners with deep sector experience.

Our Approach
What makes us different.
CG Squared was founded on the belief that mission-driven organizations deserve the same quality of strategic support as any high-performing institution and that the people leading this work deserve to be healthy, clear, and sustained enough to do it well.
We bring complementary expertise. Lauren brings deep strategy and systems design experience. Chad brings leadership development and applied wellbeing science. Together, we offer something rare, the ability to address both the structural and human dimensions of organizational performance.
Every engagement begins with an honest assessment of where you are, where you're trying to go, and what's genuinely getting in the way.

What We Offer
How we work with you.
We offer four integrated areas of support — each designed to meet organizations where they are and move them toward measurable, sustainable impact. Every engagement is scoped to your specific context, not pulled from a generic playbook.
Interactive workshops to help leaders increase wellbeing, build resilience, and reconnect to purpose.
Designed for leaders carrying real weight. Grounded in applied positive psychology and built around what mission-driven teams actually need to sustain the work.
An inclusive design process that brings the right voices in and builds strategy that reflects the real world.
We facilitate co-creation across stakeholders and communities — producing a shared vision your team can actually execute against, not one built in a boardroom.
Turn bold ideas into a clear, executable plan with defined outcomes and real accountability.
We assess where execution is breaking down, build the structures to fix it, and align your stakeholders around what needs to happen — and who owns it.
Ongoing, trusted support for leaders navigating complexity — a thought partner, not just a project.
Regular advisory support to help leaders reflect, reframe, communicate with clarity to boards and funders, and adjust course in real time without losing momentum.
