Start-Up Consulting

Schall & Russo provided start-up consulting and leadership recruitment for a new non-profit, established by the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene. Steven Schall began working with this public-private partnership just after its inception and developed several analyses and products to help the client make key decisions around organizational development, board development, fundraising, and staffing plans.

Mr. Schall then led the organization's leadership recruitment efforts and successfully recruited, screened, interviewed and conducted reference checks for the Executive Director, Contracts Manager and Program Officer Positions.

Schall & Russo provided start-up consulting and continues to provide sales and marketing expertise to Mobile Commons (formerly Rights Group, LLC) -- named one of the "Fast 50" by Fast Company magazine. Alyce Russo performed the role of interim Chief Operating Officer. Mobile Commons offers a web-based text messaging platform to assist a wide range of organizations focused on turning supporters into activists for advocacy and electoral politics and enhancing effectiveness of service delivery operations.
