Outdoor Industry Services

Let Nature Be Your Teacher. When we invest in outdoor recreation the result is we develop healthier communities, healthier individuals.

“Studies demonstrate that, in addition to economic prosperity, outdoor recreation delivers personal and social benefits on which healthy, happy communities thrive.” (Outdoor Industry Association, 2017)

At kdp consulting we believe time spent in the outdoors can provide people with profound and transformational experiences. This is why we are committed to helping outdoor service organizations improve their operations and programs, and build greater leadership capacity and responsible industry practices.

Cultivating Nonprofit Innovation

by Keith PublicoverNovember 16, 2019March 26, 2020

To adopt an innovative mindset requires leadership that empowers staff and volunteers to solve problems that matter most to executing an organization’s mission. Nonprofits stewarding a curious culture, where staff are permitted to question assumptions and constructively challenge the status quo more often produce better innovative results.

“What folks say …

…about our relationship and approach is greatly appreciated. The quality of our relationships forged along the way and the success we share together gives us oxygen.”

“Keith did an outstanding job researching and writing a report for the YMCA of Newfoundland and Labrador to assess the market for developing a camp property. Keith’s attention to detail, innovative thinking, and personable approach were all very much appreciated. We would gladly work with Keith again.”

Jason Brown, CEO – YMCA of Newfoundland and Labrador

“…an outstanding executive with a fantastic track record, in particular in the areas of leadership, governance, fundraising and brand development.”

Benjamin Davis, Senior Vice President, Mission – MS Society of Canada
