Darren Macfee has more than 20 years of experience in the nonprofit sector, serving a wide variety of organizations large and small. Beginning as a college intern and working his way up to Executive Director, there are very few angles from which he hasn’t watched organizations operate. Additionally, serving as a volunteer and board member have further widened his perspective of nonprofit management and leadership. Four years ago, he left his position in order to serve the sector more broadly. In founding Nonprofit Wizards, a boutique consulting and coaching firm, Darren gets the chance to be “hands on” with numerous nonprofits, often on a daily basis. He helps organizations with organizational assessments, strategic planning, board

training, executive transition, management operating systems and staff alignment. He also coaches a number of CEOs/Executive Directors. He derives great satisfaction from helping talented execs get “unstuck” by getting more from their staff and board members. Darren and his wife recently celebrated 20 years of marriage. They have four children who are approaching their college years with alarming speed. When not onsite with clients or supporting his children at various activities, Darren enjoys cycling and is a big fan of galleries, museums, and zoos.
