Meet Our TeamStrategic Advising
Strategic planning is all about determining long-term goals and developing the most effective means for achieving them. Successful strategic planning builds consensus, engages key stakeholders, and leads to strong ownership of the strategy.
Learning & Evaluation
We view evaluations as learning exercises. Our goal is to help clients identify and assess anticipated program outcomes, determine the effectiveness of various program elements, and refine activities to better meet intended outcomes.
Our Mission
Mt. Auburn's mission, from inception, has been consistent — building the potential of communities across the U.S. to provide shared and sustainable improvements in economic well-being. We make an effort to view all our work through a racial equity lens.
Over the past 30 years, Mt. Auburn has developed a keen understanding of how market conditions, power dynamics, and changing demographics can cause economic and social inequities. In our evaluation work, strategic advising projects, as well as our work in the creative industries, we focus on race, equity, and inclusion, ensuring that we represent all members of a community.
