Imago Consulting helps clients create profitable growth. We do that by helping organizations accelerate sustainable innovation – what they should strengthen, what to stop doing, and what to start. We help leaders identify trends, respond to disruption, develop new initiatives, and create action plans that get implemented.

How we help leaders move from vision to Sustainable Innovation

  • For leaders looking to launch, relaunch, or sustain a specific program or product. If this is you, the review and action plan will provide a roadmap with measurable outcomes - what to strengthen, stop, and start.

  • A total business review that includes a concrete action plan and roadmap. We’ll focus on what to strengthen, stop, and start to drive profitable growth for your organization.

  • Personalized guidance, outside wisdom, and a sounding board for senior leaders and their teams. Coaching includes a leadership development review focused on strengths and barriers to profitable growth, innovation, gifting, context, and personal vision.

  • 1- to 2-day seminars for your leadership team, group or offsite. Topics include: Building Recurring Revenue in the Subscription Economy, Creating Remarkable Customer Experiences, and Cultivating Profitable Growth through Sustainable Innovation.

Praise

  • "There are few people as knowledgeable about digital innovation and transformational trends in fundraising than Dave Raley. Beyond that, there are even fewer people who are able to communicate such knowledge in a way that is immediately useful. In short, he’s one of the best."

    Commissioner Kenneth G. Hodder, National Commander, The Salvation Army

  • "Dave has a unique ability to connect the dots between trends, what they mean for your organization, and what to do to take advantage. I heartily recommend him to help others build their dream."

    Steve Woodworth, President at Masterworks

  • “I have experienced the great mind of Dave Raley for over a decade. He is insightful and comes to the table with a unique perspective. Whether you are brainstorming, imagining, or problem-solving, Dave will contribute in a way that is refreshing and unexpected. He connects the dots, identifies trends, and advances breakthrough thinking.”

    Tami Heim, President & CEO at Christian Leadership Alliance

  • “One of the things I admire most about Dave is how he sees the world. He has a very unique perspective and does an amazing job of communicating to others what we all can’t yet see.”

    Tim Kachuriak, Founder and Chief Innovation & Optimization Officer at NextAfter
