Why

…is the good you want to see in the world. You are driving toward internal change, local transformation, national impact, or global reach.

What

….is whatever you, your team or your organization endeavor to do, as long as it is for the good. That could be a key objective, a project or program to launch or scale, or change to implement.

is what gets you there. You know why, you know what, and you’re on to how—exactly how. That’s where we come in. We focus on tools, practices and systems that convert ideas to actuals.

"fractional operators" are short-term administrative staff, program operations managers, COO's and Chiefs of Staff who do the day-to-day work in a fraction of the time.

Advising

You’re a CEO, COO, Executive Director, or Founder putting a key initiative in motion.

We provide advice and actionable technical assistance on ways to operationalize your objectives.

We leverage years of experience in strategy, operations, financial management, technology, and talent to figure out what’s next for your endeavor and how to put it in place. We want organizations to meet their objectives and individuals to meet their intentions.

Staffing

You’re an operations exec with a staffing gap.

We work with your team from within your team.

  • We place fractional operators while you get into long-term formation.

  • And we run search and selection for long-term team members.

We focus on good people practice—fostering positive culture, maintaining an equity lens, and letting humanness and play be okay along the way.

Projects

You need more than direction. You need tactical operators and project managers.

We manage small and large, high-impact projects from kick-off to close.

Our specialities include:

1) Implementation - We step in as tactical or technical leads to manage a key project or project component. We install tools, practices, and systems. We finalize operational or infrastructural deliverables.

2) Tech to business practice integration - We co-design technology systems that work for the way-you-would-like-to-work and make life easier. We speak tech and interface with technical vendors to ensure that what’s built meets your needs.

3) Cultural coordination and leadership facilitation - We facilitate processes, conversations, and practices that move new, scaling or changing teams into their aspirational cultures.

Training

Your team wants to gain practical, people-friendly knowledge on ways to make doing easier, more fun and more efficient and effective using your chosen technology and best practice.

We’ll provide trainings that can be applied in business and in life. They focus on the practices, processes and tools that make work not such much work. Topics include:

  • Project Management: What is Project Management Anyways, and How Do I Start?

  • Knowledge Management: How to Keep Stuff, Out of Your Head, and in a Way That’s Easy to Find Again.

  • Self Practice: Managing Your Self, Your Work, and Yourself in Yourwork.

  • “Our experience working with Endeavor TBD was excellent from start to finish. The team took time to understand our staff's needs, tailored the training to exactly what we needed, and executed with the kind of energy and usefulness that can often be absent in professional development.”
