What others are saying

Our Board of Directors recognized the need to engage in a professional Strategic Planning process for our Society. We initially chose Frank Growth Solutions because of the professional, thorough, timely and friendly response to our inquiry. The process was extensive and involved working with key Board members and staff to develop a meaningful process that included board, staff and stakeholder surveys, in-person meetings between Board and Staff, and ongoing collaborative work that resulted in an excellent Strategic Plan for our organization. Melanie and Frank have also kept in touch with us afterward to assist with the implementation phase of the plan. I would highly recommend Melanie Oliviero and Frank Atnikov of Frank Growth Solutions.

Frank was outstanding in his ability to organize, mediate and facilitate strategic planning workshops for our Board members and staff. We had been struggling on our own with updating our non-profit Community Association strategic plan. Frank’s insight and ability to moderate the group was exactly the perspective and fresh energy we needed to complete the project.

We really enjoyed working with Frank during our recent strategic planning retreat. He did a great job of preparing for the sessions and leading us through an ambitious agenda. We would absolutely work with Frank again and hope to do so for future planning sessions.

In an effort to steer our organization toward a proactive approach rather than reactive, we sought the expertise of Frank Atnikov and his colleague Melanie Oliviero to assist us in developing a strategic plan that encompassed our organizations values and vision. We were thoroughly impressed with the entire strategic planning process from the development of surveys to the sit down sessions with directors and staff and finally seeing our strategic plan in print. Thank you Frank Growth Solutions! We look forward to putting our plan to action.

Working with Frank has been great! His expertise helped us reviving a project idea and turning it into a business plan with realistic next steps. With Frank’s support, skills and knowledge we were able to turn a grand (but somewhat overwhelming) idea into realistic and attainable steps. Frank brought a diverse group of stakeholders together to identify the common goal and commit to collaboration. Frank’s valuable insights on stakeholder engagement, strategic planning and processes were what was needed to move an idea forward and a few steps closer to realization. I have learned a lot from him and can highly recommend Frank.

Lower Similkameen Community Services Society – On the heels of a period of rapid growth, while operating through the COVID-19 pandemic, our organization and senior staff really needed to examine our internal and external strengths and opportunities, and challenges, and to identify some strategic goals that would guide the organizations work for the next 3-5 years. In my role as Executive Director it is very helpful to have great Board engagement in their governance role to guide my work. Frank did an amazing job of pulling together our volunteer Board and management team, facilitating conversation and thoughtful input from even the most reticent of speakers, and consolidating the diverse and sometimes competing priorities and values of our team, in order to distill clear strategic pillars and goals. Frank’s warm, friendly, calm, knowledgeable and practical approach won over our team within minutes of meeting, and the overall process was a pleasure to be a part of!

Our group very much enjoyed working with Frank to develop our strategic plan. He helped us through the process with patience and good humor. We developed a plan that we believe in and that will help keep us on track for the next several years.
