RISING TO THE OCCASION
solutions for people
Is your organization suffering from the anxiety produced by our uneasy times? Is it feeling hard to create stability, let alone maintain it? Are you watching this lead to potential burnout, and low morale?
Great work culture doesn’t exist by accident. It takes effort. If you put no effort into culture development, your culture will only reflect the status quo and its problems. Rise Above develops tailor made solutions for organizations facing people issues, coaching people from bottom to top, restructuring teams, and rerouting workflows. We know that harmonized relationships means harmony at work, exceeding individual targets and team goals, and a healthier bottom line.
solutions for Problems
Are you noticing missed opportunities for your organization that are affecting your impact, and ability to scale? And not only that, are you seeing missed deadlines and goals? Lost product, and sales? Wasted time, and money? Are your teams running things as designed, but not delivering expected results?
These are just some of the problems organizations are facing when they come to Rise Above for help. As each situation is unique, hiring us means we study, listen, and develop customized solutions to meet your organizational needs in the moment, deliver results desired, and build for future successes.
solutions for programs
You’ve worked hard to set up systems to efficiently and repeatedly deliver the same program results. Yet your teams are still missing deadlines, and losing sales, time, and opportunities in the process. You know something is off, but you don’t know where to begin to make changes. We are here for you. There is another way. The possibilities are endless. Are you ready to rise?
Time and again, organizations who “designed a perfect program” and “did everything right” but are still coming up short enlist Rise Above for solutions to their program problems. We are proven subject matter experts at seeing the big picture and the details, assessing program structures as they are, seeing what’s missing, and developing targeted plans not just to plug holes, but deliver a holistic, 360 approach equipped with new, redesigned, and / or restructured programs as required, to reinvigorate teams and get the desired results at scale.
CURRENT & FORMER clients
Yes, People are talking about us. Here’s what they’re saying:
“I've been lucky to work with and alongside Kate Chapek for almost twenty years. Kate is an incredible organizer, strategist, manager, and motivator - a rare combination in this field. Furthermore, Kate always sets a high bar and gets results that have made a real difference for campaigns and progressive organizations all across the country. I can't wait for our next project together.”
—Matt Burgess, Democratic Media Consultant
“Kate has a rare ability to organize complicated structures with grace and compassion. She is an expert at stakeholder mapping and strategic alignment. Her knowledge of people fosters a strong internal environment with an eye on the best external product. She is deeply thoughtful and sharply intuitive.
I have had the pleasure of working with Kate throughout the years on various efforts and I always learn a great deal professionally and personally from her.”
—D'Seanté Parks, The Parks Agency, LLC Creator
“Loyal. Perseverant. Strategic. These are the three words that come to mind when I think of Kate Chapek. She has been a long time friend, ally, and colleague who is unapologetically herself. She gives 1000% to the cause and attacks every challenge as if it is her personal mission.
Someone once said ‘politics is a contact sport’. and I have seen Chapek take the hits on behalf of women and their families. an advocate for change not only inside but outside the system; a fierce champion for the voiceless and often forgotten while bringing new and innovative thinking to strategic planning, training, mentorship and leadership development. I have had the pleasure to work with her at EMILY's List, the Obama for America re-elect, and witness her support for both the homeless and her empathy as she trains the next class of Educators, while also developing international leaders through Global GAIN. She is an asset and value add. And I am lucky to know her.”
—Simone L. Ward, SLW Strategies President and CEO
“I've watched Kate Chapek energize, organize, and help transform organizations over the last decade with an array of tactics. She is a builder -- of talent, of a more inclusive and positive culture, and of systems that promote success. I always want to be involved on projects she oversees because she gets the best out of people and helps them develop the best strategies to achieve their objectives.”
—Ellen Qualls, Corporate & Nonprofit Communications Advisor
