“Experience Makes the Difference”

EMD Consulting Group prides itself on having a diverse array of clients: diverse in mission, diverse in size, diverse in location.

What our clients share in common is a deep commitment to excellence and to serving the public in the most effective ways possible. Our clients range from relatively small, highly focused institutions to major national and international institutions working in a broad range of areas. While we serve most clients directly, we also work with other firms and NGOs on larger projects.

Most of our clients are in the United States, but we have worked overseas on projects of particular interest. Most of our clients are nonprofits, but we do work on occasion with for-profit businesses where our expertise can be helpful.

Each of the principals of EMD Consulting Group has been active through the years working with clients even though our work as a firm firm dates only from 2002. The list includes a sampling of clients served by the principals prior to the formation of EMDCG.

“Thank you for your very impressive report as well as your continued assistance. It is incredibly helpful.”

Mike Loven, Board Chair, Arboretum at Flagstaff
