|
|
A nonprofit consultancy? Can such a thing exist? Yes, says Michael Pirron, CEO and founder of Impact Makers, a nonprofit consulting firm headquartered in Richmond, Va. Pirron, an ex-Andersen and ex-Accenture consultant, has traveled the world and worked in various capacities, but his current endeavor, a consultancy of 10, allows him to tap into his need to give back. “I’ve always tried to figure out how to be involved in the community where I live and at the same time pay the bills,” he says. The company made about a half million in revenue in its first year and gave its chosen charity $41,000—and 200 consulting hours.

So we would come back to the conclusion that the organization and its leaders were failing to engage people and have them stay with it.” His new book, EPIC Change, which looks at the leadership issues around change initiatives, hits shelves this month. He recently spoke to Consulting about the EPIC (evaluate, prepare, implement and consolidate) model the book explores.
