Board Training/Meeting Facilitation

(for Theatre Companies) 

We will work with your board leadership or executive staff to design a session to fit your theatre’s needs. Topics may include: statewide and national marketing and development trends, the board’s role in audience development, legal responsibilities of non-profit boards, advocacy coaching, and updates on current legislative issues impacting NC theatres. Your board will leave the session with renewed engagement and tangible ideas for supporting the organization!

Strategic Planning 

(for Colleges and Theatre Companies) 

From examining your mission, vision and values, to a full process of creating your new strategic plan, we can help you define goals and set priorities for success.

Leadership Transition Assistance 

(for Theatre Companies)

When an executive leaves, especially after a long tenure, your board must re-examine organizational needs and determine the right profile for your new leader. We can share industry hiring trends and lead you through the process of creating an effective transition plan.

Recruitment Strategies 

(for Colleges)

How can you connect with NC high school theatre students and teachers? What motivates theatre students in their college decision-making? How can you effectively use your limited time and resources, to get elevated enrollment results? You’ve got questions, we have answers.

“Our department has been working to clarify and further develop the identity of our program. Working with Angie Hays (NCTC Executive Director) has been a great asset in this process. The clear guidance offered by her consulting work pushed our faculty to discuss and put into words exactly what we believe in. We’ve refreshed and revised our mission and vision statements, and have been inspired to begin the year with a great sense of purpose.”

Theatre Department Chair, High Point University
“Our recent board retreat facilitated by Angie Hays, delivered on every topic that was requested and inspired members to move forward in our plans for audience development. Our group is very lively and idea-driven; Angie was very adept at letting those ideas flow while also keeping everyone moving forward through the full retreat agenda.”
