CALDWELL MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS
Let the size of your belief determine the size of your goal.

I educate, empower, and encourage female Presidents of nonprofits (ages 50-65) to learn how to own their worth so they can drive the organizational and financial growth needed to accomplish their vision and mission.
I serve to help them understand their worth as a key factor from moving to ‘visible’ from ‘invisible’.

How we work with clients
A RECENT PROJECT
“Loretta Caldwell Thompson, Chief Executive Officer of Caldwell Management Solutions, (CMS), has created an innovative, dynamic forward thinking company designed to help organizations take a real hard look at itself from the inside out.
CMS employs its proprietary organizational assessment model that can come in and focus on a specific concern or look at an organization from top to bottom, from the C-Suite to the Mailroom. CMS came into to our company Competech SmartCard Solutions, Inc. and looked at every aspect of our organization leaving no stones unturned. It was uncomfortable at first, but CMS guided us, pushed us and most of all encouraged us as we went through their process.
What we received from them was a well thought out interactive plan that assessed our organization’s structure throughout, and provided us a pathway and the tools to help our organization function more effectively and more efficiently. The plan also gave each of us some set methodologies to help everyone continue moving our organization forward, while remaining an integral part of the process.
If you are looking for a company that thinks outside of the box, has a structured yet dynamic approach to organizational health and growth, YOU should strongly consider CMS for your organizational development and enrichment needs.” Per the CEO of Competech SmartCard Solutions, Inc.

A RECENT PROJECT
An international organization, The Ministry of Justice of Trinidad and Tobago wanted to redirect their strategic planning efforts for growth to mirror those of other successful United States correctional directors in the global markets. CMS began by using systems analysis to understand the current practices used; utilized various personnel assessments in working with senior management to determine leadership styles; and instituted several role-playing exercises to determine what was successful and how these successes were awarded. These activities helped to establish attainable short-term goals based on sound best practices, and followed through with measurable outcomes and associated time frames. Additionally, the team of CMS was awarded a special plaque from the organization for their leadership role in this strategic planning process.

A RECENT PROJECT
A west coast state governmental organization sought direction and improvement of deficiently-run programs. By using trend analysis, CMS was able to work with senior management staff to conduct a thorough culture and needs assessment. CMS used trend analysis to determine what best practices would yield exceptional management systems based on the culture and needs assessment. Additionally, CMS was able to strategize whether meaningful collaborations would move the organization to a shorter learning curve in order to improve their deficiency status. Based upon the outcome of these processes, CMS prepared the organization‘s Board of Directors for the new senior management key positions and a sustainable process in the restructuring of the organization.
CORE VALUES
"Shared thinking”, as coined by John Maxwell is the backbone of all CMS’s core values. Shared thinking is faster than solo thinking; it is more innovative than solo thinking; it is more mature than solo thinking; it is stronger than solo thinking; it returns greater value than solo thinking; and is the only way to have great thinking. (Maxwell, 2016)
