Each client’s different; each challenge is unique. We bring a lot of experiences from other settings and other sectors, but we give it an original application that fits your need and opportunity.

As one client put it: "PSG understood our mission and helped us set ambitious yet reasonable and achievable goals. They truly became a part of our organization"

Non-Profit

• A non-profit hospital changed the compact between physicians and hospital to create a strongly integrated, high performing organization that improved outcomes for patients, and the financial bottom line for all.
• One person’s commitment to make a difference turned into a national initiative to reduce domestic violence, with organizations in all 50 states.
• A church listened closely to its members, and increased its effectiveness in faith development.
• A major university foundation thought through the mission and framework of what became a successful $1.1 billion capital campaign.
• Lead musicians at a big city orchestra worked together to get better performance from the whole ensemble.
• A major mid-west foundation re-invented itself from the traditional reactive philanthropic model to an entrepreneurial, performance driven approach that is changing the community and the cultures of its non-profits.
• In Tanzania, a small college grew to be one of the most influential institutions of higher learning in the country and on the continent of Africa.
• An institute dedicated to the use of data for better evidenced-based care delivery guidelines wanted to expand their expertise into a replicable state-by-state change model. They were able to exponentially increase their impact on health throughout the country.
• A major hospital system was stuck in old paradigms. By purposefully determining to become a learning organization, they’re now adaptive and responsive to change and positioned well to make the most of health reform.

Strong facilitation and consultation helped them moderate differences and conflicts, to create a strong and effective organization.

Government
