“I've worked with Deborah on many different projects over the years and found her to be a very organized project manager (as well as a delight to work with!) for a wide range of networks projects. In addition, she has a real gift for developing project strategies and writing in a way that communicates complex ideas and learnings clearly. I also admire her commitment to equity and inclusion: in particular, she consistently pulled together very competent and diverse teams for consulting projects. Her understanding of how networks can catalyze systems transformation is as deep as anyone's I know.  ”

Deborah Meehan is one of the very best leadership practitioners and consultants I have ever had the pleasure of working with.  She is a very strategic thinker, incredibly thoughtful and insightful, creative and resourceful, and deeply committed to and knowledgeable about issues of equity, diversity, and inclusion... She has a keen ability to ask just the right questions to not only meet but exceed client expectations.  If you want a stellar thought partner who will challenge and enhance your organization’s capabilities, work with Deborah.

“Deborah is one of the most brilliantly creative thinkers I’ve had the pleasure of working with. Through her consulting, coaching and facilitation, she fundamentally reshaped how I and others conceptualize social problems and helped us understand how to tackle them better through collective, networked approaches that embrace diversity and inclusion. She has the incredible ability to move groups through data and information, thoughtfully guiding us toward breakthroughs that often lead to remarkably out-of-the box possibilities. What makes her such a truly thoughtful partner though is that no matter how complex the challenges we’re grappling with are, she always centers the humanity of our shared work, infusing collaborative spaces with her characteristic warmth and compassion.”

Having been a participant at multiple leadership retreats and convenings led by Deborah Meehan over many years, I can attest to the depth, breadth and practicality of her knowledge and application of leadership theories. As a former leader of large nonprofit organizations I have relied on Deborah’s guidance and expertise for over a dozen years. Her knowledge, methods of delivery and practical application  of tested theory are superior.
