Here to help you catch the wind.
The string might not be the showiest part of the kite...but you sure can't catch the wind to go higher without it.
And that’s the perfect metaphor for Kitestring's consulting work: to be of meaningful service to nonprofit organizations and leaders, so that they can set their sights on where they want to soar, and untangle challenges that may be getting in the way.
organizational development & planning
Navigate organizational changes with intentionality, ease, and the confidence that you're on the right path -- whether you're just beginning to craft a plan for the future, or working to implement strategies that are already in place.
Coaching & Advisory SUPPORT
You don't have to tackle big ideas and big challenges alone. Bring a partner on the journey: an experienced collaborator who will generate ideas, ask insightful questions, and bring fresh perspectives to help you get where you want to go.
MEeting & retreat facilitation
Make the most of your gatherings by ensuring they are thoughtfully planned and skillfully facilitated to generate the outcomes you need to move forward.
program design & implementation
Sometimes you just need an infusion of extra talent -- someone you can trust to handle high-level tasks and get the job done well, whether you're planning/launching a brand-new initiative or keeping existing projects moving and performing.
Our clients
Kitestring’s clients represent a beautifully diverse group of organizations who all share a focus on mission, a commitment to real impact, and a desire to not only do good work, but to do it in ways that reflect their values.

Leigh Tivol, Founder & Principal Consultant
I'm an experienced problem-solver and get-it-done leader with a heart for service, a love of mission, and a long nonprofit career. I bring proven expertise in design, execution and implementation of program and strategy; organizational management and development; field engagement and communications; policy design and advocacy — and tying it all together to help organizations make a difference. I'll help you craft a strategy to get from Point A to Point B, persuasively pitch it, bring in the right partners and supporters along the way, manage a team and a budget to get the job done well and on time, and tell the compelling story of the impact we produce.
I'm a trusted, honest leader and partner, whose relationship-building strengths enable successful facilitation of complex planning and challenging conversations. A skilled mentor and coach, I find great joy in helping colleagues tap into their own power and potential.
In short, I'm a seasoned nonprofit pro and a utility player — motivated by outcome rather than ego, and here to serve people and organizations who are changing the world for the better. Learn more about my background here.
