Vision: Social change is defined by client outcomes, rather than well-intentioned programs and activities. Mission: DBN partners with mission-driven leaders to effectively manage toward client results. DBN guides social sector organizations toward high performance by sharing extensive expertise and nuanced tools to create a culture of learning and to continually improve. Debra is much more than a facilitator, which sets her apart from many other consultants we have hired. She produces valuable original work based on what she learned from our team combined with her own considerable experience and expertise. |
