Watershed Results solves problems and captures opportunities

… between business and nature

… and to advance stewardship missions.

What We Do

Issues

Every business and passion stalls in the traffic of problems and jumps at opportunities. We help you solve the problems, realize the opportunites, and run.

 

  • Lobbying to change or create new policy.  Meeting, engaging, and negotiating with decision-makers in agencies and committees takes dedicated time and effort.
  • Project management.  Activating people and resources toward a goal is as much work as moving an issue through government.
  • Philanthropy and Investment. Conservation today offers many options. We connect you with effective partners for you and your passion.

Voice

To have your say, someone must be listening. The message, the platform, and the volume all must be right – because communication is not just a message sent, but one that is also received.

  • Earned media.  We engage with publishers, editors, and reporters to deliver your voice in print, broadcast, and digital media.
  • Negotiation.  When values are on the line, collaboration and compromise sound like surrender. We find positions that secure your interests in hard-won agreements.

Relationships

People drive every goal and objective. The people you need both inside and outside your team need the responsibilities and commitments that are right for results.

  • Staff and volunteers. We help build and align skills and capacity.
  • Alliances. We help you meet and engage allies in your cause.
  • Roundtables.  We organize and facilitate clear paths forward from new ideas and common interests.

Experience, Expertise, and Commitments

How We Do It

Teamwork

Personal attention to clearly defined tasks, steadily pursued, that engage you with the right people, apply your ideas and leverage, and

repeat until done.

The Team

Greg Schildwachter, PhD  Conservation is my calling. It has been my fun since childhood, my discipline as a student, and my practice as a professional. I have worked in the private and public sectors on a broad set of conservation issues.  My experience includes technical, managerial, and political assignments – including work for a governor, a senator, and a president.  At Watershed Results my mission is to deliver breakthrough results for problems and opportunities with wildlife, fish, land, and water conservation.  Ambitious clients in business, charity, or personal efforts are welcome.  Full bio here.

Tell us what you’re up to – or up against – and we’ll help you over the top.  The first move you make is always a big step forward.  After that, it’s just a few strides to get up and running.
