Mission + Strategy (“M+S”) was founded by Jean Butzen in 2006. She founded M+S to help nonprofit organizations become stronger and expand their impact through strategic collaborations. Jean’s leadership was instrumental in shaping the ethos of our organization, instilling a culture of collaboration, innovation, and client-centered advocacy. Her leadership and unwavering dedication have left an indelible mark on our organization and the broader community we serve.
Today, M+S is the largest provider of nonprofit collaboration services in the Midwest.
With Jean retiring at the end of 2023, Judie and Greg are honored and excited to carry forward the Mission + Strategy legacy. In today’s world, leveraging collaboration as a solution is more important than ever. We thank Jean for her contributions to the field and look forward to igniting even more community transformation through collaboration.
