Services

Consulting

Clients often arrive with a spark of an idea. Together, that spark becomes a clear, actionable strategy.

You may be:

  • A senior living organization exploring partnerships with a local college or university to enhance intergenerational programming, student employment, or occupancy and waitlist growth

  • A housing developer or architect seeking to differentiate a property and attract vibrant, engaged older adults

  • A college or university interested in monetizing land, leveraging assets, and creating new revenue streams through senior living partnerships

  • Board members or alumni envisioning a future where you can return to your alma mater, live on or near campus, engage with students, and deepen philanthropic ties

  • A policymaker or foundation leader rethinking models for aging well

  • A health care or social services association looking to spark innovative connections across education, housing, health care, and hospitality

Anne helps clients:

  • Reach an expanded demographic to embrace opportunities

  • Address organizational objectives, challenges, and opportunities

  • Identify partnership opportunities

  • Align stakeholders across sectors

  • Evaluate financial, programmatic, and cultural fit

  • Design models that deliver financial, educational, and human value

Workshop Facilitation

Workshop Facilitation

Anne designs and facilitates immersive, day-long workshops that help leaders imagine what is possible, address challenges and opportunities, gain clarity and provide a roadmap for moving forward. These sessions often unlock unexpected synergies between higher education and senior living.

Workshops are especially effective when organizations are:

  • Exploring a new partnership

  • Stuck at an impasse

  • Ready to rethink space, programming, or community

The result is momentum, alignment, and a plan to move forward.

Workshop case study
In a busy university town, a university and a senior living community shared a large parking lot—neighbors with no other formal relationship. The senior housing community had a long waitlist; the university needed space and practical learning opportunities for its health sciences students.

During a day of facilitated brainstorming, leaders from both organizations reimagined the site as a multigenerational community where students and older adults would aspire to live together. They envisioned integrated floors of student and resident housing, hands-on clinical learning, and an admissions process based on interest and intention—not age or lottery.

The result? A practical solution to problems facing both organizations, and a reframing of aging, education, and community.
