"Steve is an outstanding non-profit consultant. He sees the big picture and yet is mindful of the important details and nuances. He is thoughtful, strategic and turns around excellent work—quickly.
While his own professional background in non-profit leadership informs his practice, he also quickly learns and adapts to his client’s particular organizational culture and needs.
Steve was a perfect fit for our work (strategic planning, revisiting vision and mission, deep financial analysis, scenario exploration, goal setting, projections, core values, board education and engagement, staff resource reallocation, real estate exploration etc). I would recommend him whole-heartedly. He helped us establish a long-term plan and continues to help us with short-term planning and implementation."

"I met Steve Rooney about ten years ago when he was CFO at ICP. During contract negotiations for our Edward Steichen show at ICP, it became clear that he was a source of clarity and stability for that organization.
It was later suggested to me by ICP's former Director, Buzz Hartshorn, that Steve could provide FEP with that same valuable clarity and stability. Unsurprisingly, Buzz was right.
For the past two years, Steve has brought those qualities to his work as FEP's Treasurer and management consultant. His forty years of experience with financial analysis, reporting, and organizational change is helping us grow our international programs and he is doing it in a very calm and good-natured way. I would highly recommend his services for any organization in need of them."
