“Civics and Service International was extremely fortunate to have Alex Counts, helping our non-profit organization with a self-assessment. It was important for us to improve how we operated and get an understanding of our strengths and weaknesses as a board. In our experience we found Alex to be a consultant who cares about his clients, goes beyond what is required to assure client needs are met and that they are well positioned to meet the needs of those they serve.”
