We love helping others piece together the visions God has placed on their hearts. The convergence of youth studies, cross-cultural studies, and strategic operations allow us to offer strategic support services, such as consulting and coaching, to help leaders realize their visions for transformational change.

We love helping others piece together the visions God has placed on their hearts. The convergence of youth studies, cross-cultural studies, and strategic operations allow us to offer strategic support services, such as consulting and coaching, to help leaders realize their visions for transformational change.

At the heart of consultancy is listening and learning. Whether helping social movement leaders structure facilitation teams, assisting youth organizations to develop training templates, or working with church denominations to develop strategic growth plans we utilize a contextualized approach toward holistic transformation in the areas of starting, strengthening, scaling, and sustaining change. This strategic support may include whiteboard sessions, research and development projects, vision-mission-value assessments, or codifying structures and systems. This may include the use of situation reports, after action reports, detailed prospectus, or customized templates to build upon.

Coaching entails loving and leading through the change process. If clients so choose, IYS can develop action plans (with metrics, objectives, outcomes) and coaching road maps toward implementing change.

Some of our services include:

    •  Past, Present & Future Possibilities (a vision, mission, and values assessment)
    • Obstacles, Opportunities & Options (organizing systems, structure, strategies)
    • 6 Priorities Evaluation & Game Plan (a look at key priorities needed for change)
    • Road Maps (3-, 6-, 9-, or 12-month coaching plans)
    • Movement Making (strategic structuring of organizations and social movements)
    • Mile Markers (clarifying, codifying & celebrating health metrics)
    • One Page Strategic Plan (OPSP) training and implementation
    • Creating & Cultivating Resource (sustainable solutions for revenue and donation generation)

Consulting and coaching services may be billed hourly, by project, or via contractual retainer. Through the generosity of our donors, we are able to offer scholarships on a first-come-first serve basis. Presently, nearly 100% of our Inspire services are from word-of-mouth relational investment with friends.

HyHopes.

Mark Andreson, founder of IYS

One such special Inspire project is called HyHOPES, a client initiative of Go Live Dare Foundation Zambia. HyHOPES exists to inspire high hopes through hygiene and hope. Sadly, in many underdeveloped countries, the lack of education on feminine hygiene can lead to increased urinary tract infections, cases of cervical cancer, school dropouts, and teen pregnancies (often not of their own choosing). HOPES offers immediate, lasting, and eternal hope to girls through menstrual hygiene training and resources thus changing the status quo and restoring the girls dignity.
