Designed to provide support where needed, Foos for Thought offers guidance as you go, or will handle it all wherever you are. We offer a selection of services that help ensure audiences receive your message through engaging, memorable experiences truly reflective of you.
We work with you to build programming that engages audiences in memorable experiences while capturing the spirit of your content and mission. Helping with design, construction of materials, assembling of supplies, planning and implementation of events, while administering internal and participant evaluations throughout the process, we can assist or take the lead based on your needs.
We collaborate with you to collect your content and expertise, then organize it into learning experiences that work for your audience and setting. We will build everything you need to teach it, including assessments, print and digital instructional materials. Whether upgrading your existing workshop or creating a new curriculum and accompanying lesson plans, we help ensure your students gain the concepts and skills you envision.
We train the trainers, prepare the presenters, and coach the speakers. We offer scriptwriting support, development of presentation materials, public speaking coaching, event coordination, and evaluation services. Whether you are delivering a Ted Talk, leading a workshop, or teaching a class, we can provide focused support or a comprehensive toolkit that guides you from planning through presenting to collecting feedback.
A well trained staff helps morale and ensures quality, efficiency, accuracy, and safety. Building informational animations to your specifications with accompanying employee materials and a facilitator’s guide, we work with you and your HR team to design or enhance professional development experiences that cover all the content you need in ways people enjoy and apply on the job.
Our system for completing grant applications quickly and thoughtfully with your project needs and story in mind keeps costs down and award rates high. Beginning with information collection and a checklist, our grant writers work with you to build compelling narratives, practical budgets, and evaluation plans that connect with individual funders’ priorities so your application submissions are more likely to result in awards. We can also use that same information to identify potential grants that help fund your operations and projects you have planned.
Well designed, thoughtful assessment provides insight into trends, needs, morale, challenges, and successes. We work with you to determine what information would be helpful and how to best collect that data, then we build the necessary evaluation tools and administer them for you. We can even generate reports with recommendations based on your data analysis requests for inclusion in grants, board presentations, and strategic planning. Good evaluation doesn't just measure, it illuminates.
