Modern change management for mission-driven organizations
But navigating teams through constant change is tough to handle alone when the day-to-day work is still there to be done.
Now more than ever, leaders of mission-driven organizations are under pressure to make an impact
Caitlin Harper
Founder & Principal
I am a strategist and implementor for mission-driven companies and nonprofits tackling high-stakes organizational change.
For more than 15 years, I have designed strategies and led change in businesses across the globe; grown phenomenal teams; and served organizations large and small as a change management, internal communication, and operations leader.
Now, as the founder and principal strategist of Commcoterie, I help leaders successfully navigate change so that they can achieve their organizations’ missions and visions.

Who I serve
My clients are mission-driven companies, nonprofits, agencies, and other purpose-led organizations. Their leaders need help uncovering and untangling challenges, solving problems, roadmapping for results, navigating change, and creating compelling communication that engages stakeholders internally and externally for long-term impact.
My collaborative work helps clients articulate and solve tough problems, build impactful offerings and operations, reduce their operating costs and better-utilize resources, increase internal and external stakeholder engagement, inspire behavioral change on their teams, and build long-term change capabilities at their organizations so that successful change becomes the norm.
I typically partner with midsized, values-aligned organizations, ones that center people and planet, that make decisions with curiosity and compassion, and that want to leave the world better than they found it.
Our engagements last anywhere from a few months to define and launch a simpler strategy to 12+ months to fully implement a transformative change.

Not sure where to start?
So many of your fellow leaders have been there. Often, it helps to have a second set of eyes on the situation. Jump on a call and share more about what’s going on.
If I can help, I’ll be sure to let you know. If not, I can most likely connect you with someone or something that can. Either way, you’ll gain some clarity about your next best step.
