What clients are saying about Cadensus
Todd did everything he said he was going to do, his follow-up was excellent and he never missed a deadline. I would highly recommend him.
We would highly recommend Todd and Cadensus. They helped our team to be stronger, bold and stand together to the ever-changing time that we are all facing.
Executive Director
Apraxia Kids, Pittsburgh, PA
Apraxia Kids and our Board of Directors had the opportunity to work with Todd in 2018 as we developed a new three year strategic plan for our organization. Todd was very thorough in his prep work leading up to our Board Retreat and was a great facilitator engaging meaningful dialogue among staff and volunteers. In the end, Todd provided us with clear outcomes allowing us to formulate a thoughtful strategic plan for our growing organization.
Senior Director of Human Resources, Addgene, Watertown, MA
Todd was recommended to us through a trusted colleague when I mentioned that we were looking for some training and advice on SWOT analyses for our teams to present to our new Executive Director. I am so glad we connected! Todd gave a great general presentation to all on what a SWOT was and how to work with their teams to start the process. Once each team had a rough draft, Todd facilitated an interactive session with our team leads to further refine their team SWOTs. This was a great exercise, not only just to have something to present to our new Executive Director, but also for the teams to really reflect on what they do well, where challenges may lie, and to really think out of the box!
Former President/CEO
Gosnold on the Cape,
Falmouth, MA
When we needed an in-depth analysis of a potential business opportunity, we turned to Todd. He produced a most comprehensive report — complete and insightful. We were able to make a decision based on clear and well-presented material. I highly recommend Todd, a professional of the highest competence and ethical standards.
Vice President Human Resources,
Convention Data Services,
Bourne, MA
We needed a facilitator for our annual senior management planning retreat. We’re a privately held subsidiary company of approximately 160 employees serving our clients in the live events industry with technology solutions for registration, lead management and business intelligence. Todd was recommended as someone who could keep us focused and moving in the same direction. He guided us in the development of a very intentional agenda of two days of offsite planning for the years ahead. He put us right to work but kept it fun, interactive, and engaging — so team development was a key byproduct. He relied on us as the subject matter experts to identify the market trends and organizational opportunities but steered us in a way that led us to new insights and with a discipline to keep exploring new directions while remaining realistic about our organizational capacity. We were so pleased with the outcome after the first year, we invited him back to help us build on that at our next annual retreat.
Chief, Primary Care Services
Southcoast Physicians Group, Wareham, MA
Todd was the project manager for our primary care strategic planning process. He was able to balance the organization’s need to focus on the future models of primary care with our primary care physicians’ more immediate concerns about their practices. In the end, we came up with a plan that incorporated both perspectives. Todd deserves much of the credit for a successful process that is still the road map that we reference over a year later.
Former Chief Clinical Officer
Aspire Health Alliance (formerly South Shore Mental Health), Quincy, MA
It had been many, many years since our agency had a strategic plan. Management and the board recognized that our market was going through rapid change as new organizations were entering the mental health field and alliances were being formed, meanwhile remaining one of the most poorly reimbursed services for a population that was growing and in need of services. We referenced the ‘perfect storm’ analogy frequently. We were looking for a consultant who could work with our leadership team to guide but not dictate the direction, to bring in experts who could challenge our thinking and yet honor our history and mission. We are fortunate to have found Cadensus, working with Todd and the project team he had assembled. The process helped undergird some key choices we made for markets, services, branding, operating structure, and a smooth transition to a new CEO.
President. Sandwich Arts Alliance,
Sandwich, MA
Since our inception in 2015, we at Sandwich Arts Alliance have relied on Todd’s guidance in the areas of governance and short/long-term strategic planning. He has been a valuable asset in helping us create a path forward that takes into account our multiple audiences as an arts and culture nonprofit organization. Whether we require a quick temperature check or a facilitator for a strategic planning weekend retreat, we have been able to count on him for an exceptional contribution.
Former Chair, Sandwich Chamber of Commerce, Sandwich, MA
Todd facilitated a Board of Directors' Retreat for our Chamber of Commerce on the topic of strategic planning. Our Board is very large and all on a volunteer basis. He worked with us in advance to clarify objectives. At the actual retreat Todd's experience, organization skills and style created an atmosphere where everyone could feel comfortable sharing their ideas, yet still allowed for progress and efficiency.
