The Challenge

Gemma, a mission-driven nonprofit, was at a crossroads. The executive team lacked strategic clarity, alignment, and trust—making it difficult to move forward with purpose. Leadership knew something needed to change, but they weren’t sure where to begin.

Key challenges included:

  • Lack of clarity and consensus around Gemma’s purpose
  • Unclear priorities and areas of focus
  • Misalignment and low trust among the executive team
  • A need to unify mission, vision, and values

Our Approach

Motus9 facilitated a tailored, phased engagement to unlock alignment, clarity, and trust at the top.

  • Conducted deep-dive sessions to explore why Gemma exists
  • Led interactive workshops to redefine mission, vision, values, and strategic direction
  • Facilitated courageous conversations to surface and address hidden team dynamics
  • Delivered one-on-one executive coaching to support individual growth and leadership

The Impact

The transformation was bold, intentional, and lasting.

  • New mission, vision, and values anchored in purpose and clarity
  • Full organizational alignment around strategic priorities
  • Significantly improved executive team communication and trust
  • A clear, actionable growth plan grounded in shared values
  • Integration of the new direction throughout the entire organization

Where they are now

Gemma is no longer just working hard, they’re working in alignment. With a revitalized sense of purpose and leadership that’s unified, transparent, and strategic, Gemma is positioned for sustainable growth and deeper impact in the communities they serve.
