The Stanford Alumni Consulting Team provides pro bono consulting expertise in a wide range of areas, including strategic planning, marketing, earned revenue, financial sustainability, and organizational growth.
We have alumni with expertise across sectors, functions, and geographies, and customize our projects to the specific needs of each client organization.
Stanford GSB is committed to making lasting, positive change toward eliminating bias and racism beyond our community. To support this goal, the Stanford Alumni Consulting Team (ACT) will undertake 50 projects by the end of 2025 for organizations that are committed to inclusion and racial equity. Projects that meet ACT’s racial equity initiative goals are those for nonprofits whose work focuses on advancing racial equity or clients who primarily serve Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPoC) communities, as well as clients whose mission is broader with a specific project focused on serving BIPoC communities.
