“Belén is an expert board development consultant and a delightful collaborator. When our organization was needing support with launching an equitable board recruitment open call, we sought out Belén to offer their guidance. In partnership with our executive director and me, she tactfully was able to lead us to co-create a reasonable work plan, created thoughtful interview questions and search considerations, and facilitated board interviews with ease. Along the process, she held us with care and made it feel easeful. Thank you, Belén!”

“Working with Belén was incredibly helpful during the restructuring of the Board of Directors for our 66-year-old arts organization in the Bay. Belén approached our work together with sensitive interpersonal skills while also providing strategic leadership ideas and thorough administrative support guiding many of the larger shifts and changes necessary to re-envision SADC’s organization values and governing structures. They provided us with new perspectives and approaches to help us rebuild our procedures, evaluations, and new goals to sustain the future of Shawl-Anderson Dance Center.”
