Meet Marshall Howard
In the early 1980s, Marshall Howard founded Marshall Howard & Associates and Golf West. The goal was to combine an ongoing, collaborative relationship building program with a major giving fundraising event.
It worked.
As an attorney, former television network executive, teacher, and sales and marketing consultant, Marshall quickly discovered the single biggest reason why some nonprofits experience continuous growth: their ability to build and maintain strong collaborative relationships, both internally and externally.
After 20 years of consulting with nonprofits, big and small, nationwide, Marshall decided to make a greater impact, by writing his now nationally acclaimed bestseller, “Let’s Have Lunch Together.” Today, his work solely focuses on teaching his collaborative relationship building process...he no longer consults.
Just as in his book, his publications, speeches, and training courses present practical, real-world solutions to the challenges facing organizations today. Marshall uses the power of collaborative relationships to; build capacity, create cultures of motivation and greater community impact, overcome unique management challenges, and make life’s work more rewarding.
Over the past 24 years his consulting and training clients have included:
AFP, Alegent Health Systems, Alzheimer's Association, American Cancer Society, American Humanics Universities, America's Blood Centers, Arthritis Foundation, Big Brothers Big Sisters, JNF - USA and Canada, Junior Achievement, March of Dimes, National Committee On Planned Giving, Providence Health Systems, The Salvation Army, United Way, YMCA and hundreds of others.
Marshall Howard's successes and programs have been reported in...
The Los Angeles Times, U.S. News & World Report, Sales & Marketing Management, Los Angeles Business Journal, Success Magazine, The NonProfit Times, Major Gifts Report, and in many other business and nonprofit publications.
