About Us
Powerhouse Nonprofit Consulting helps mission-driven organizations build the strong foundations they need to thrive. Founded by Jessica Olives, a seasoned nonprofit executive and governance specialist, our firm brings over a decade of experience supporting nonprofits, quasi-governmental agencies, start-ups, and public-facing organizations through times of growth, transition, and operational change.
​
We specialize in strengthening the core of an organization—its governance, leadership, structure, and systems. From improving board relations and developing policies, to guiding CEO transitions and streamlining complex workflows, we provide practical solutions designed to enhance clarity, efficiency, and long-term sustainability.
​
Our approach is rooted in partnership. We work side-by-side with executive leaders and boards to identify gaps, remove operational barriers, and create sustainable pathways forward. With a strong background in crisis management, strategic planning, parliamentary procedure, and process improvement, we support organizations at every stage of their journey.
​
At Powerhouse Nonprofit Consulting, we believe that every organization can operate with confidence, purpose, and impact. Our mission is to equip your team with the tools, structure, and support needed to maximize your effectiveness—so you can focus on what matters most: serving your community and fulfilling your mission.
