Mattison Advisors has been a great partner in our DEI journey. Mattison has devoted significant time to familiarize themselves with the people in our organization, the details of our operation, and our DEI baseline. They establish a schedule for project objectives and stick to it. They assist us in understanding the dynamics that can undermine progress on DEI objectives. They use our time with them productively to manage project goals. They have been an excellent resource for training modules — both the subjects and the trainers — to educate our team about DEI concerns. They regularly provide clear, comprehensible progress reports that help us understand where we are and where we need to go. Moreover, Christina and her team are extremely pleasant to work with as they keep us focused on how the various pieces of the DEI project will fit together to achieve our objectives in the short- and long term.

Working with Christina has been a complete game-changer for our organization. Her strategic thinking is on par with few leaders I’ve observed in the social impact sector, as she is able to simultaneously consider the micro and macro implications in any given scenario and communicate them effectively to drive effective decision making. She has gone above and beyond in helping our organization, Social Venture Partners Philadelphia, put together our first strategic plan and is deeply invested in our success, as well as mine as a leader. The final product her team produced, which included a comprehensive landscape analysis informed by extensive stakeholder engagement, research, as well as our organization’s strategic plan to guide our operations for years to come, is a shining example of all that she is capable of doing. She is a masterful communicator and fundraiser and approaches her work with a deep understanding of the people and communities it will impact. I cannot sing her praises enough and implore anyone who is considering hiring to do so immediately.
