Consulting for nonprofits, law firms & mission-driven organizations
Trusted by nonprofits, law firms, and mission-driven organizations navigating growth, governance, and technology change.
Operations, technology, communications, and leadership—handled by a team that has worked inside the kinds of organizations you run. We streamline what isn't working, implement what should be, and stay until it sticks.
These are the exact situations we're built for.
If you're nodding at two or more of these, we should talk.
Concrete work with clear outcomes—not vague retainers or 100-page strategy decks.
For organizations where processes live in people's heads. We document workflows, clarify governance, prepare for audits, and build the operational foundation you should have had two years ago.
For organizations drowning in tools they don't use or stuck with systems that don't talk to each other. We assess, right-size, and implement—without the vendor chaos.
For organizations where leadership agrees in the room and diverges in execution. We facilitate alignment sessions, build shared plans, and coach leaders through the hard conversations.
For organizations that need senior-level operational leadership without a full-time hire. Ongoing advisory support across operations, technology, and leadership—one team, one point of contact.

"I have worked with Thania over the past five years, and she has been a steady and trusted advisor. I value her integrity and her straightforward approach to strategy, planning, and governance, which has supported my nonprofit's growth and organizational health. She has been a reliable collaborator and a thoughtful partner to have on our team."
Organizations we've supported
Most organizations don't have a strategy problem. They have a systems problem. Start with the challenge you're dealing with most.
What's your biggest challenge right now?
YMBS helps diagnose the root issue, prioritize what matters, and rebuild the systems behind it.
Select a challenge to meet the expert who solves it.

Thania, Ashley, Michelle, and Nestor don't theorize about what nonprofits and mission-driven organizations need. They've led operations, managed technology, navigated governance crises, and built teams inside the same environments you're running.
YMBS was built to solve the problem of siloed consultants—you hire one firm for operations, another for tech, another for communications, and spend more time managing the consultants than solving the actual problems. We built one integrated team instead.
Between the four of us: combined decades in nonprofits, professional service firms, public safety, and mission-driven environments. We're not generalists who will figure it out. We've been in the room before.
We work alongside your team—not above it. Strategy means nothing if it doesn't turn into execution. We stay until it does.
Pick the situation that sounds most like yours.
We're not a strategy firm that hands you a slide deck and disappears.
Understand your goals and current state → Identify gaps and opportunities → Recommend the right path → Support implementation and improvement.
What happens: We learn your goals, bottlenecks, and what's realistically possible with your team and budget.
Outcome: Clear priorities and the real root problems (not symptoms).
What happens: We build a tailored plan aligned with your timeline, people, and budget.
Outcome: A practical plan your team can execute (not shelfware).
What happens: We support implementation and help your team avoid stalls, rework, and vendor chaos.
Outcome: Execution momentum with accountability.
What happens: We measure progress, tighten what's working, and adjust what isn't.
Outcome: Continuous improvement instead of slow drift.
Most partnerships operate as ongoing advisory retainers.

See yourself here? Book a free discovery call →If you have boards to answer to, audits to prepare for, or a team stretched thin by broken systems—we know your environment.
We help nonprofits, law firms, and mission-driven organizations fix the operational and technology problems that slow them down. That means cleaning up broken systems, right-sizing technology, aligning leadership teams, and building governance structures that don't fall apart under pressure. Four specialists—Thania (Operations), Ashley (Technology), Michelle (Communications), and Nestor (Leadership)—work as one integrated team.
Yes. Our deepest experience is with nonprofits and law firms, but we work with any mission-driven or professional services organization—community services, health & human services, education, public safety, and growth-stage businesses that operate like mission-driven orgs. If you have boards, audits, and stakeholders to answer to, we speak your language.
Two good options: (1) Start with a free Technology Assessment or Cyber Readiness Assessment—both give you a concrete picture of where you stand with no commitment. (2) Book a 30-minute discovery call—we'll ask direct questions, tell you what we see, and be honest about whether we can help. Either path leaves you with more clarity than you started with.
Minimum engagements start at 3 months—enough time to assess, plan, and begin execution. Many clients move to ongoing advisory support (monthly or quarterly) after the initial engagement. We also take on scoped projects: technology assessments, strategic plans, governance documentation, cybersecurity reviews. We'll tell you what makes sense for your situation on the first call.
Three ways: (1) We don't hand you a strategy and leave—implementation support is standard. (2) Our team has worked inside the organizations they advise—we're not generalists who figured it out from a case study. (3) You get one team across four disciplines instead of managing multiple vendors who don't coordinate. We also tell you when something is outside our lane and recommend who to call instead.
Concrete deliverables. Not a strategy document that sits in a folder.
From the leaders who worked with us directly.
"We had processes that existed entirely in people's heads—and the people were leaving. YMBS helped us get it all documented, built a governance structure our board could actually use, and gave us a roadmap we still run on today. They didn't just hand us a plan. They made sure it worked."
Result: Board-ready governance structure built in under 8 weeks.
"We were paying for six tools and using maybe two of them well. Ashley walked through everything we had, helped us cut what wasn't working, and got our team actually using the systems we kept. The rollout was calm. Our staff wasn't burned out. That was the most surprising part."
Result: Consolidated tech stack, 40% reduction in unused subscriptions.
"Our board and leadership team had been circling the same strategic questions for two years. Nestor ran our planning process and got us to consensus in two sessions. I don't know how he does it—but we left with actual decisions instead of action items no one follows up on."
Result: Multi-year strategic plan with clear ownership and accountability.
