Michael Bradley Consulting
I blend data analytics know-how, management best practices, and practical experiences leading teams/managing people to generate actionable insights that help organizations get the most out of their data, people, and processes.
What it's like to work with me
"We just finished up a project with Michael, who supported us with the analytics of a retail-specific engagement survey. Our team didn't have the bandwidth to work on this and Michael was able to step right in to understand the project and the outcomes that were needed. Michael was easy to work with, welcomed feedback, and shared a project output that really spoke to the key stakeholder audience it was intended for (including Executive team members). He owned the analysis, build-out of a deck, and then the facilitation of the deck to our group. The messaging was concise and shared an impactful narrative that allowed us to hone in on strategic priorities needed for that group of employees. We highly recommend him for other projects and can't wait to work with him again!"

"Working with MBC was a wonderful experience! Mike and his team are incredibly knowledgeable about how to support large, complex organizations in making sense of their programmatic impacts -- both theoretically and practically. MBC were responsive to client needs and were able to quickly identify and develop solutions to address challenges that arose throughout the project. We appreciated MBC's attention to detail, deep expertise on all things monitoring and evaluation, and adaptability. If you're looking for a true collaborator and thought-partner to help develop monitoring and evaluation tools that provide insights and facilitate data-informed decision making, MBC is the firm for you."

Mike is a thinker who is able to resolve the tension between strategic implementation and tactical execution. He will take complicated bodies of data, find the nuanced narratives that are implicit, and present them in a way that is beautiful, detailed, and crisp.

I had the pleasure of working with Michael to develop and execute a user feedback loop for a program focused on supporting local government leaders in accessing federal infrastructure dollars. The program was already underway, but we wanted to better understand the needs of our users -- mayors, chief sustainability offices, grant managers, etc -- in order to ensure our programming was effectively helping them reach their goals. Michael was able to quickly help us refine our questions and process, getting requests for stakeholder interviews out and scheduled within a week. He also provided weekly digests of findings, allowing us to begin incorporating feedback immediately.
​
The final deliverables for our work together included a comprehensive report that synthesized the stakeholder interviews, recommendations for programming updates aligned with those findings, and instructions on how to execute this process internally moving forward. Michael's responsiveness, expertise, and flexibility made this very dynamic project successful and we could not have done it without him.

Mike is a wonderful thought partner and collaborator when it comes to all things data management, analysis and visualization. I've had the pleasure of collaborating with him on many different projects and have always been impressed by his ability to balance the large picture against the smaller but critical details of the data. Mike has a gift for pinpointing the data collection, management and communication strategies that will best serve the project while also being achievable and sustainable for the client.
