What Our Clients Say…
“Springboard’s work on this critical project helped me refocus my time to be able to think strategically and less about process. The operational improvement gave me the freedom to get this important initiative done. We enjoy your no-nonsense approach that keeps us on track and on time.”
– Jim Isch, former Chief Operating Officer at >> the NCAA
“We needed help with the difficult question around athletic sustainability. Springboard facilitated those conversations which resulted in a plan that allowed us to make good long-term decisions for the university and the athletic department. One key takeaway for me is the fact that different units across campus now better understand athletics, what goes into athletics, and how it can be better integrated into the institution. Having the right people in the room going through the collaborative process we went through will benefit us for years to come. The Springboard process was very helpful and is something that we can replicate as we make tough decisions moving forward.”
– Vice President at >> the University of Northern Colorado
