WHAT WE WILL NOT VIOLATE IN THE SERVICE OF OUR MISSION
Partnership & Independence: Our commitment to creating strong client partnerships is grounded in an understanding of each organization’s specific needs and aspirations. We aim to leave clients in positions of organizational strength and confidence, building capacity, not dependency.
Gravity & Levity: We work seriously because our clients do serious work. We also believe deeply that levity leavens the challenging work of progress and change.
Professionalism & Authenticity: Bloom’s client relationships are driven by professionalism: we value and model authenticity, integrity, and an independent voice while helping clients realize their mission.
Expertise & Continuous Improvement: Our seasoned core team brings expertise in education, nonprofit management, and organizational planning and is supported by a cadre of accomplished content specialists. Our expertise is underpinned by an abiding commitment to continuous improvement and to learning from each client.

OUR UNIQUE VALUE PROPOSITION
Bloom embraces the necessary tension between process and outcomes. Thoughtful relationships and creative tension make desired outcomes possible. Ultimately we believe only honest, determined planning efforts – supported by strong, mission-oriented relationships – make organizations operationally ready for the change to which they aspire.
At Bloom we view every client project as a partnership. To that partnership, both our planners and our clients bring deep experience in their fields. We provide active, expert guidance that leverages this experience to nurture change and growth as well as to empower clients’ realization of their missions in fuller, more effective action.
We build these relationships through trust. Bloom planners have proven records of successful work with organizations that are committed to purposeful work and change. Our method emphasizes thoughtful, engaged planning, beginning with our very first conversations with prospective clients.
