Work is an essential dimension of human life and necessary to build the common good–so we want to make work great.

Kyle was among my first recruits in 2014 and took to the work quickly, demonstrating skills that distinguished him from others. At the heart of what we do is serving clients by learning their situation rapidly and asking good questions. Kyle does that better than anyone I've ever worked with. I fully endorse Kyle and his work and expect to see amazing things.

I started working with Kyle over 5 years ago and it was the best thing I ever did. At the time I couldn’t have imagined the positive impact he would have on me and the leaders in my school. He has transformed the dynamics of our leadership model and our ability to achieve our goals together. It was nothing short of transformative.
