Our Clients Say

“Merging two Associations in any environment is challenging. To do it during a pandemic and related economic collapse, amidst societal unrest, during a particularly challenging election year, presented numerous challenges. To leverage our new organization, Finseca worked with Dan Varroney of Potomac Core – Association Consulting. Their robust and engaging process helped us develop a strategic plan that focuses on how we can help our members achieve their business outcomes in any environment. Dan did an outstanding job helping to reorient our thinking away from the traditional internally focused strategic plan to an outside in strategic plan. Our Board and the staff team are energized and ready to implement the new plan.”

Our Clients Say

“Way beyond due to write up a strong recommendation for Dan and his team at Potomac Core. ABA was looking for someone who would work with our board to transform our organization. We needed to move from reactive and staff focused to proactive and aligned with our members’ business outcomes. Dan and Potomac Core spent a year working from the outside in and from a data driven process instead of what we thought we knew. We are still transforming ourselves, but have made significant progress.”
