Nancy E. Wilson

 Nancy Wilson "has over 20 years experience in non-profit and for profit management, in the United States and overseas, including direct management and bottom-line responsibility. Her career thus far is quite diverse, with a consistent emphasis on strengthening organizations.

"Since January 2004, Ms. Wilson has served as Director and Associate Dean of Tufts Jonathan M. Tisch College of Citizenship and Public Service. She is responsible for the overall programming and management of this university-wide initiative to engage students, faculty and alumni in a lifelong commitment to civic engagement.

"Recently, Ms. Wilson served briefly as Executive Director of the Africa Foundation, directing the implementation of a new organizational strategy. Prior to that, she completed five years in an international management consulting firm, where she became partner. She successfully started a new practice area in the firm, growing to a profitable team of 30 consultants within 18 months, directed teams working across all industries, and managed teams working across a wide range of consulting fields: strategy, customer relationship management, supply chain, cost reduction, human resources, change management and finance. Given her wide background, she has had numerous roles as project director for multi-disciplinary projects, where cross-functional integration is required. Clients consistently sought her team's work in follow-on phases because of the high quality of her initial work.

"Ms. Wilson has also worked in all aspects of non-profit organizations: fund-raising and grant-making; project start-up and program development; consulting; training; monitoring; and evaluation. The content of her work has included community development, micro-enterprise development, gender equity policy, cooperatives, worker-ownership, reproductive health, HIV/AIDS, literacy, and environmental education."
