The Influence Gap
You're doing meaningful work. That key decision makers are overlooking.
Momentum Strategies
Strategic counsel for advocacy, organizational alignment, and external affairs — for leaders ready to stop guessing and start moving.
We help purpose-driven organizations across Canada and beyond unlock funding, influence, and organizational momentum by identifying the bottleneck(s) slowing everything else down.
Where momentum breaks down — and where we start the diagnosis.
You're doing meaningful work. That key decision makers are overlooking.
Your plan is missing financial fuel. Because funders and partners don't fully understand your value.
Understanding vs reality. What you do is different from what people understand you do.
Priorities compete and decisions stall. Teams lose time, patience and talent.
Every engagement starts with a clear diagnosis — before building strategy, we name exactly where momentum is breaking down.
The MOVE Framework is the diagnostic system Momentum Strategies uses to identify what's standing in your way and what needs to happen next.
Where you are and where you're trying to go.
What's actually blocking you. Named and prioritized.
The message and presence you need to build influence and open doors.
Your first moves, in the right order, to raise money, attract capital, and grow.
Once we diagnose the problem, we stay until it's fixed.
Replace guesswork with a clear game plan. A focused engagement that builds a complete external affairs strategy across all four MOVE pillars.
