Creative organizations often grow through the commitment of people who care deeply about the work. But as that work grows, unclear roles, slow decisions, and knowledge held by a few individuals can make leadership harder to carry.
CODA helps organizations identify where structure is strained and create clearer ways to lead, decide, and continue with care.
Identify where responsibility, authority, and accountability are unclear.
Build practical roles, systems, and decision pathways that make the work easier to carry.
Protect the people, purpose, and continuity of the work through change.
Structure and support for organizations balancing mission, volunteer capacity, leadership pressure, and change.
CODA was founded by Phil Mahar after more than a decade of leadership within arts and community organizations, alongside a career leading teams and businesses in complex, people-centred environments.
