Speak Your Truth | Strategic Planning for Nonprofits

All movements start with a shared story about who we are and the world we envision.

Speak Your Truth (SYT) believes in the power of storytelling and courageous communication to change the world. There's no right thing to say, perfect way to say it, or preferred channel. There's only the truth you carry in your heart and the opportunity to find your people.

We are a strategic planning and communications business for nonprofits. We work with visionary leaders who are committed to community and who believe, like we do, that movements are built on authentic relationships.

We help you know what to say and
what to do to reach your goals.

Every nonprofit has big goals for the people and the place it serves. The hard part is knowing what to say and what to do to reach them. That is where we come in.

Say what you believe, to your people.

You do not need to reach everyone. You need to reach your people: the ones who share your vision and want to help. We help you get clear on what you believe, so the right people hear it and know it is for them.

Plan the work, together.

A plan only works when everyone knows what the work is and why it matters. Our strategic planning process helps you get clear on both, and it ends with a work plan that fits your team as it is right now.

It all starts with speaking your truth.

Three ways we help

Start where you are. Every path leads back to the same idea: say what you believe, and find the people who share it.

Develop

Learn to tell your story and better understand the ways AI is changing how organizations communicate. We offer development workshops online, at your organization, or in a community workshop.

Assess

Are you saying what you truly believe? SYT works with your team to audit your message and listen to the people who love you, so you know where you stand and how to close any gaps.
