Jerri Rosen
Founder/Former CEO, Working Wardrobes
Working with Mike Lennon opens up ideas, minds and hearts! When we had a need to open new corporate partnerships, I met with Mike and laid out our goals. Mike got to work in the very best way possible. He set up meetings, he prepped me for a successful meeting, he handled the follow up – and we landed a number of valuable corporate partnerships.
We continued to provide good stewardship to these partnerships and they continue to support our mission. Mike has impacted our work, our clients and our board members in the most powerful and positive ways. He educated us on a process that continues today. Now that’s really smart work!
Beth Kang
Former Executive Director, HomeAid Sacramento
Mike Lennon first engaged HomeAid Sacramento nearly five years ago. During that time Mike has guided us through several successful visioning/planning sessions, helped immensely in creating more effective fundraising strategies, Board and staff development and other intangibles that he brings to all he does.
His integrity is a high bar he brings to all those with whom he works. His attitude and approach are both positive and realistic, yet challenging always us to strive for “better, then bigger”. He is a strong leader, but a servant at heart, a quality that has greatly helped our staff and volunteers benefit from his vast expertise.
At the personal coaching level, Mike has been a true mentor, helping me to discover and implement a more effective leadership style and approach to all I do. I highly recommend Mike to any organization whose vision is to become stronger, more focused and more effective in fulfilling the mission they have embraced.
John Kahler
Co-Founder/Board of Advisors, MedGlobal, Inc.
Mr. Lennon facilitated the first board retreat for our medical NGO, MedGlobal, Inc. He was diligent in his preparation. He sought the input of all the board members prior to the retreat. He put together a program which helped us generate excellent mission and vision statements as well as an actionable budget and business plan.
Mike was professional in all aspects of his work with us and our board gave him and the weekend rave reviews.
Todd Hess
Former Chairman, STEPS
I have had the pleasure of knowing Mike Lennon for more than four decades. He is a superior executive and an excellent consultant. He recently came to Texas to help our non-profit, facilitating an effective planning session and making a great presentation which helped move our organization forward.
Beyond friendship, at the personal coaching level, Mike has been very influential helping guide me in my quest to become a better husband, father and a more successful businessman in commercial real estate.
Jeff Keith
Founder & CEO, Guardian Group
In its inception, Guardian Group needed to find solutions to a problem most didn’t know existed. It was essential that we build and cultivate a partner base, deliver a solution that worked effectively and support these initiatives through clear and effective messaging. Guardian Group partnered with Mike Lennon to help us succeed in accomplishing these milestones.
Mike holds his work with companies with utmost integrity. He is honest and compassionate, exhibiting a positive life outlook. Mike’s “willingness to serve” attitude impacted not only Guardian Group’s growth but also victims throughout the country.
Whether in a fundraising environment, our strategy sessions or contributing to my personal coaching, I firmly believe Mike has always given full energy to ensure success. Mike has proven to be very dependable, hard-working and of unblemished judgment. I have always found him to be above reproach and full of integrity, leading by example and not just through his words.
Jack Nulty
Former Executive Director, Homes for Hope
Making the leap from the for-profit profession to the not-for-profit world was a huge challenge! Mike was there for me from the beginning and has been there with me every step of the way. If you’re seeking advice from a guy who knows how to start and manage an international non-profit, Mike’s your man. Mike is also a gifted communicator and speaker. I love this guy!
